I told myself The Dark Knight on blu-ray was going to be my last BD purchase of the year, so not a thing.

Nothing for me. Burn After Reading was somewhat entertaining, but I won't be buying it anytime soon.

Another week where my Christmas list comes into play, I'm asking for Burn After Reading, Death Race and The House Bunny...if I don't get them, I'll be buying them shortly, especially Burn, I fucking love that movie.

I'm a Coen completist, so just Burn After Reading for me.

Definitely Burn After Reading. I have a gift card to burn so I'll probably wind up with Traitor and Death Race too.

I have to admit I am somewhat surprised at the tepid response to BAR (the film not the disc). IMO it's only a notch below Fargo as one of the Coen's best comedies. I have a feeling part of the film's problem is being released so soon after the juggernaut that was No Country For Old Men, which was a much more sobering film.

Burn After Reading is a rental... I think I'm pretty much done with new release purchases until March.

Between spending on myself, spending on others for gifts and the expectation of possibly getting some Blu-rays for Christmas, I'm holding off right now on anything.

I will eventually probably own all of those, but Traitor will be a rental first.
