Sum of All Fears/Patriot Games
Cleaer and Present Danger/Hunt for Red October
Damn. Why did they have to put the two good Jack Ryan movies in different packages?

Re: Wal-Mart - $20 BD two-packs & $4 DVDs

Found the Blu-rays today but no sign of the $4 DVDs. I did grab the Top Gun/Days of Thunder BR 2-pk. I almost bought Top Gun last week for $20 at Walmart...glad I waited! I've never seen DOT, but it was free in my eyes.

Thanks to the OP for the heads up on these!

Looks like brilliant marketing to me.

Depends. Instead of an additional $20 sale, they will get ZERO.

Went to another store today where they had the set up.

Picked up Days of Thunder/Top Gun and Van Wilder/Waiting.

Saw the $4 display at my local WM. Picked up The Savages and Sunshine. I almost bought 28 Days Later until I saw it was Full-Screen.

They didn't. They put the two best ones—CLEAR and HUNT—in the same package and the two lesser ones in the other.

Display was up at my store, but just the the Blu-Rays and Warner/New Line titles - no sections reserved for any of the Fox DVDs.

Can anyone tell me if the Last Samurai disc is fullscreen or widescreen? Also is it the 2 disc version?

No definite knowledge but the top banner in the photo appears to be the full screen color and with enough words that it would be the 2-Disc.

Found the DVD and BR displays at both Walmarts in town tonight. The Last Samurai is the 2-disc version and it's FULLSCREEN.

"The Last Saurai" was shown among the 5/$20 titles listed in the WM sale flyer in today's paper. It clearly shows it to be the 2 disk WS version. So... probably a YMMV.

The Walmart in Roseville, CA, had the full screen version. I was happy to pick up both Jack Ryan 2-packs.

I went to the local Wal-mart on Thursday, and it had the $4 display, but I couldn't find Office Space. Bummer. I've been waiting for weeks for a good sale on the title.

Nowhere to be found in one store last night... Stopped at another today for cat food and found it by the checkouts. Picked up Lars and the Real Girl and The Savages. The Last King of Scotland was full screen, bummer.

The Blu packs were at the other end of the registers with the Gran Torino display.
