I may get Brick at Target unless Best Buy has a better price. I heard that Shadow of the Collosus gets its price drop *this* week, not next week, so I'd be curious to know the story on that.

Me?

I'd go with featurette DVD if you are into the making of the series.

I found the 24 webisodes interesting but just worth a one time viewing.

Welcome to the Forum dman988! :wave:
Thanks for the welcoming speedy. :)

And Brick comes VERY VERY highly reccomended.
Absolutely the best film I've seen this year, and it's very interesting and unique.
Possibly, unlike any indie I've ever seen. And A Scanner Darkly is pretty good too, but I say definitely check it out speedy.
Did you see Mysterious Skin by any chance?
People say it's similar to that, but I haven't seen it so I can't elaborate.

I saw Brick over a year ago at a pre-screening and I thought that the movie was below average...unless a lot of changes were made since when I saw it, I'd say rent this movie first because you might not like it.

I know OF Mysterious Skin but I never see it when I'm out and about.

Scanner Darkly is on my radar as well.

Thanks for the recommendations.

I totally agree. I loved it and so did a few people that I've talked to about it but I could easily see people hating it.

No problem Speedy.
Alas, I must say the film isn't for all.
I can pretty accurately estimate whether you'd like this.
A few factors must be taken into consideration:
Do you like indie films?
Do you like film-noir?
Do you hate teenage actors?
Do you like unique films that have strange but great cinematography, music, and story?
Would you like a sharp and at times funny film noir with teenagers and drugs?

I'd like to ask if you like insert title of movie then you'll like Brick, but like I said, Brick is like no other and many people will be turned off.
Or you could name me some recent faves of yours (for the heck of it, since it's summer) and I'll tell you if you'll probably like it.

I'll go as far as reccomending the new horror film The Descent since that is awesome horror too. Has anyone seen ads for that?
It's really great. I scored R2 dvd. :D
All I can say is, if you like horror, you must see the film.

$37.99 isn't bad for Prison Break: S1 but CC has it for $39.99 and Inside man for $2 cheaper than target so I'll guess I'll skip the bonus disk from Target. Wonder what BB will be doing on PB:S1

Oh okay, then I think you'd like Brick.
Brick is far superior to those two, and it's more stylish.
I can say with confidence you'd dig it. :)

And I must ask, is Prison Break any good people?
It just doesn't seem that interesting, but I know there are now a lot of fans.

What do you think is better with "Prison break"? The Featurette from Target or the webisodes from best buy... im thinking the webisodes...


I'm getting it at Best buy. It's $1 cheaper, and the webisodes sound more interesting. If the "Behind the Walls" thing is the same as the special they aired on tv, the webisodes should definitely be more interesting. That special aired on a saturday or something odd like that, so I did not see it. But I just downloaded it a few days ago and watched it, so I could decide which bonus disc i wanted.

Hehe, I remember seeing an episode and it was boring.
But I only watched some of it, and when I did that same thing with Lost, I thought that was boring but boy was I wrong.
You know, I may just buy Prison Break instead of Inside Man.
Thanks for the hints Speedy...

The episodes are "Alexa", "Meleny", and "Darnell". The disc itself comes in a keep case. The photo book is a bit of a disappointment due to it's size.

I went to get the Collector's Edition of Laguna Beach, too. Well, the employees had NO idea what I was talking about, and then they tried to claim that they don't get in new releases until Tuesday night (while every other new release was on the shelf). So, after getting attitudes from about three workers, and about fifteen minutes later, one finally went in the back to find it and came out with a whole stack.

I like that the bonus disc has it's own slimcase, so they kinda made it a four disc set, and the book is really more of a "booklet". I was pretty satified with it, and I had a giftcard, so it worked out.

Nope. My Target doesn't have ads for people to take and the employees never seem to have any, either. They have one that they post in the front, but that's it.

The best part was right in the DVD section, they had a picture of the Target exclusive and the regular version, and the employee was trying to tell me it was the same thing. And then when I told her it wasn't the same thing, she reponds with, "Oh yeah, then what's the difference?" So, then I had to explain to her that the CE comes with the bonus disc and booklet. And then she looked back up at the two pictures and said, "They look the same. How am I supposed to know the difference?" So, I pointed out that the CE said "Collector's Edition" on it, and then they finally went in the back to check. But it was like a fifteen minute back-and-forth battle.

Not to mention, they didn't even have out Prison Break. I guess that one is on the mysterious truck that comes in Tuesday nights, too.

It was a little 4.5" x 7" comic, 28 pages long called "Earth's Mightiest Heroes" with an Avengers story that seemed to published one-shot by Marvel, although it did end with a "to be continued" cliffhanger.

It was double-packed with the DVD for Avengers on a cardboard piece the same size as a DVD for $12.99 or so at the time.
