Thanks for this. I saw the John Wayne yesterday, but couldn't remember which movies I already had.

excellent investment IMHO

when all the worlds banks collapse, and currency of any sort isn't worth the paper it's printed on.

i feel steven seagal movies will be something people worldwide use in place of money in the purchasing and selling of goods.

and ladies and gentlemen, that there is the new benjamin

the lethal weapon set is a really nice set. 1-3 are all directors cut versions

[GizmoDVD]

Are all 4 films on 1 double-sided DVD?

[SpinalGuffman]

Thanks for the tip! Sadly I didn't see it here in Eau Claire WI.

lovgun7, where are you located?

Each 4-Film Favorites are on 2 double-sided DVDs... (1 movie per side)

[docdoowop]

Went back to pick up the last remaining John Wayne set. They're all excellent WWII films:

They Were Expendable (with Robert Montgomery, dir: John Ford)
Operation Pacific (with Patricia Neal, Ward Bond)
Flying Leathernecks (with Robert Ryan)
Back To Bataan (with Anthony Quinn)

Helluva deal for the Duke...$2.25 a picture.

Hit the Target off of Resceda then. I hear the Icee's are Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[acdcrocks1980]

I'm pretty sure Sam's Club has the 4 Film Favorites for 8.xx, so you might save a few cents running in there

Completely agree. "They Were Expendable" alone is worth the price of the entire set, but they are all excellent films.

thanks for the reply!

Picked up 2 of these today at one of my local Targets

Extreme Action: Eraser, Last Boyscout, Passenger 57 and Point of No Return

Already own Eraser, but didn't have the other 3 movies, which are guilty pleasures of mine.

Sylvester Stallone Collection: Tango & Cash, Demolition Man, The Specialist and Over the Top

Alreasdy own Tango & Cash and The Specialist, but as Foolscreens from 2 previous Action double feature purchses. Glad to get them in Widescreen at least.

[laidbacklarkin]

And I hate it when they dump FS AR into these sets. Hopefully everyone's checking the WS AR of these

Just so you know, even though it's widescreen, Tango & Cash in the Sly Stallone 4 Film Favorites is non-anamorphic.

Drats, I guess I'll wait until Criterion releases it on Blu-ray.

[DJariya]

Not a big deal. I really don't care about it being non-anamorphic. I don't have a widescreen HDTV that would even make it noticeable for me.

[Zbu]

Drats, I guess I'll wait until Criterion releases it on Blu-ray.

Don't joke about that, that might actually be an interesting release. ;)

I might get the Matrix one as I don't have the box set and, to be fair, am a bit wary on putting down that much cash for a good film and two bad sequels.

[theguyoverthere]

If they release that before the Criterion BD release of Good Burger, I'll be pissed.

[Zbu]

Nah, Criterion's holding off on that and is bound to release their special two-disc edition of Brain Donors first. And the world will be better for it.

Meanwhile, these 4 Film Favorites are truly excellent. I got the Stallone and Matrix ones today for cheesy post-hangover viewing and I'm not disappointed.

[droidguy1119]

Warner seems to be pretty good at releasing all of the films in a single 4 film favorites set in the same ratio, so if you're thinking of grabbing a 4FF with a title that has as of yet been FS only (i.e. Spies Like Us/Man Who Knew Too Little/Vegas Vacation/some other one I don't remember), then know that even the ones that have been available in WS (Man Who Knew Too Little) will be FS so that the entire set is FS. Also, almost all of the "family" film ones are FS.

Since they're two double-sided DVDs, the disc "images" are identical to any previously released DVDs: menus, features, etc.
