Can anyone tell me the titles in this box set? "Tough Guys" by Genius Entertainment
Any help here guys? All the info I have is leading me nowhere. I am looking at this off of a list and I'd like to know what titles are in it. info I have:
Title: Tough Guys (word "Hollywood" is also on the cover but I am not sure if that is part of the official title or not).
Studio: Genius.
Pub date: 2005
# of movies: 12.
# of discs: 6, in slimpacks in a cardboard sleeve.
Run time: 1079 minutes.
UPC: 796019725897 (I assume this is wrong because it brings up zippo on Amazon or dvdaf, or even plain ol google).
My only clue on the UPC is that though this says nothing about Best Buy, the titles AROUND it on the list say 'Best Buy Stickered'. So maybe the UPC is a proprietary Best Buy one. But it means nothing to their website either, nor does the title. So I dunno.
A link so I could see what it is would be great, a listing of the just the titles would be great too. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Sorry guys, I appreciate the help but I know it's not that one because my store already sells that one-- to be sure I checked skus on the physical copy here with what's on my list and they aren't even close. Anyway, I have a tiny pic on the spreadsheet which is (ironically enough) big enough to show me it's not that for sure but too small for me to see the movie listings! ARRGH!
I'm sure it is more PD stuff...most likely even some of the same titles between the two. But I have to know for sure whats on it if I'm going to be stocking it.
Really do appreciate the effort though fellas.
