I wonder which of these are widescreen and have all the extra features present on the regular 1-movie releases.

Sucks that of the 4 movies I want on there that I all ready have the other one. Anyways will probably pick up Mortal Kombat. I've been wanting it for awhile and this way I get the crappy 2nd one also.
I need Demolition Man so I can throw away my VHS but i seen a 4 pack at target with it in there for 9.99. I didn't pick it up because I hadn't seen the 3 other movies with it before.

I believe that Analyze This/Analyze That are both widescreen, and both are good comedies. I actually remember the sequal as being even funnier than the 1st one, and that is rare. Both are directed by Harold Ramis. how could you go wrong.

Well, Ameican President, Dave, City of Angels, and Michael are all guilty pleasures of mine and I haven't seen Analyze This or Analyze That since they first came out. I guess that's 3 I might pick up.

Does anyone know how the transfer on the Road Warrior/ Thunderdome double feature is?

i think there was talk about it when the 2pack first came out. it says widescreen but it's still fullscreen. shite. unless someone can report otherwise. i love the films and have avoided them for years just for that.

The two pack still is fullscreen.

Widescreen SEs of both films were confirmed by WB to be coming, most likely this year.

Most of these releases contain all the extras they originally had on their single disc release. I know I have the Perfect Storm/Three Kings double feature and all the original extras are there and both are WS.

I can confirm that Analyze This/That are both widescreen.

So is Training Day/Fallen.

Yeah, I sold off my singles to preorder it as it was listed as widescreen online. I guess swapping 2 fs titles for one double disc wasn't so bad, but it was annoying when it showed up fullscreen.

picked up Analyse This/Analyse That. definately both widescreens, with comentaries and bonus features. Identical to the regular single disc versions, only it is double sided disc with one movie on each side.

There wouldn't be. Breakdown is Paramount, Executive Decision is WB. The Double Feature is Executive Decision/Unlawful Entry, but the latter is missing the features (like commentary) that it had when it was being put out by Fox.

Actually, circuitcity.com has been resurrected. Hopefully the new owners will have some DVD deals worth posting soon...

Re: $6.99 double features at Circuit City

Sorry if I caused any confusion... the deal at the start of this thread is over a year old, from the dead circuitcity.

The new circuitcity.com site is pretty expensive for DVDs.

This may be the recent emails I've been getting from CC. I thought it was spam!
