MGM dvds $1 dollar tree - Page 2

docdoowop · 10-31-09, 05:30 AM

No DVDs whatsoever at the Eden Prairie DT (suburban Minneapolis.)

DouglasRobert · 10-31-09, 11:46 AM

NO MGM's at mine either.

Just the same old Digiview DVDs.

Torchur317 · 10-31-09, 12:53 PM

Checked another one today, nothing there either....

BeatlePaul · 10-31-09, 02:26 PM

Hit the jackpot in Murrieta, CA and Lake Elsinore, CA locations. Picked up 20 different MGM titles. Thanks DVD talkers!!!

Torchur317 · 10-31-09, 02:35 PM

Blaaaah, My Dollar Trees suck....

Could you please post the names of the ones you saw at your store?

I am going to my store tomorrow and see if they got any.

30smovies · 10-31-09, 09:17 PM

I'd advise checking every few days - my local DT didn't have them earlier this week at the start of the thread but I went there tonight and there were approximately 100 dvds so they were likely just put out today.

I bought
Fuzz - Raquel Welch
Daddy's Dyin' Whos Got the Will - Beverly D'Angelo
Love Field - Michelle Pfeiffer
Smooth Talk - Laura Dern
Hello Kitty Goes to the Movies
Illegally Yours - Rob Lowe
Solarbabies - Jason Patric

Saw - (several copies) Barbershop 2, Delovely, A Guy Thing, Thunderbird 6, Madison, A Guy Thing, Dance With Lisa

Emperor's New Clothes w/ Sid Caesar, Kart Racer, a John Larroquette/Lesley Ann Warren movie, a Michael Caine war film, a John Corbett romantic comedy, an early Dennis Quaid movie

30smovies · 10-31-09, 09:19 PM

Want to add half were near the register, half were with "electronics" near the p.d. ones, dvd empty cases, etc. The ones I listed with several copies dominated, the rest had only 1 or 2 copies.

Perkinsun Dzees · 11-01-09, 03:40 AM

I hit up the store in La Habra and they had a decent size display. I ended up grabbing the following:

I was also totally psyched to find this title:

I got so excited that I started to jump up and down and shout: "Oh man, oh god! Oh man, oh god! Oh man, oh god! Oh man, oh god! Oh man, oh god!!!"

jgorow · 11-01-09, 05:11 AM

who'll stop the rain with nick nolte was a good movie

NCC1701E · 11-01-09, 06:36 PM

Hit up one of the two Dollar Tree stores in town today. I didn't see any DVD's so I asked the manager on duty and she said, "Oh, I'm glad you reminded me! We have two boxes that just came in." So she grabbed them from the office for me and let me go through them. They were small boxes and a few were already missing from each box, which probably means the employees were getting first dibs. I picked up:

Bad Influence (Rob Lowe & James Spader)
Kansas (Matt Dillon & Andrew McCarthy)
The Rachel Papers
Nobody's Fool

I'll probably hit up the other store later this week.

gdstudent · 11-02-09, 10:33 PM

Picked up Nobody's Perfect (1989) today.

For some reason they were all just sitting in a box by the cash register.

30smovies · 11-02-09, 10:34 PM

Hit the four stores in the next town today and all of them had them in smallish quantities.

Store #1 had around two dozen mixed in with their p.d. crap - I suspect they didn't put everything out and just opened up these two boxes and stuffed 'em in there. The only dvd bought here was
PIECES OF APRIL - Katie Holmes

Store #2 seemed to have the same amount and as always the same titles over and over.

Store #3 is kind of a junkier DT - they just opened up the boxes of 15 dvds and stuck all seven of them on the floor by the pd stuff. Less than two boxes worth were sold when I got there. Here I bought
NOBODYS FOOL - Rosanna Arquette
NOBODYS PERFECT - Chad Lowe
HEART OF DIXIE - Virginia Madsen

Store #4 was the smallest and when I saw they didn't even carry pd titles and a lot of regular stuff at DT I wasn't expecting to find them but there on an endcap by the registers there they were and the best titles yet in besides the ones at every store:

BE COOL - John Travolta
BABY BOOM - Diane Keaton
THE WILBY CONSPIRACY - Sidney Poitier
THE YOUNG IN HEART - Janet Gaynor
NEVER LET GO - Peter Sellers
JACK AND THE GIANT KILLER - Kerwin Matthews
THE GIRL WITH GREEN EYES - Peter Finch

I't appears each store may get about 100 copies and at least 70 percent of them you are going to find at every store: DELOVELY, BARBERSHOP 2, MADISON, A GUY THING and a couple others in large quantities.

Mickactual · 11-02-09, 11:13 PM

Can anyone confirm seeing these in any of the N.J. Dollar Trees? I hit 4 of them today and there wasn't one MGM to be seen (and the workers there had no idea what I was referring to). The stores I hit were Clifton (2), Fairview, & E. Rutherford.

GenPion · 11-03-09, 11:47 PM

Found these (and picked them up) today in Texas:
For Love of Ivy
Madison
The Kentuckian
Kotch
Be Cool
Suppose They Gave a War and Nobody Came?
Attack of the Puppet People
Carbon Copy
Dominick and Eugene
Stonebrook
De-Lovely
Konga
A Guy Thing

Quatermass · 11-04-09, 11:39 AM

Success! I checked out my nearest Dollar Tree and there was one box of DVDs at the end (beginning?) of every checkout line. I got "Be Cool" and the 1967 Sonny and Cher movie "Good Times" which I saw on TV back in the 70's and remembered as being pretty silly even then, like an episode of the Monkees. I was surprised to see it was directed by William Friedkin, so it was a must buy. Cheaper than renting. I'd love to find "Tough Guys Don't Dance". Thanks OP!

TexasDVDer · 11-04-09, 11:56 AM

Didn't see any at all at the DT at Thousand Oaks at Jones-Maltzberger. Has anyone seen any of these in San Antonio?

Saw a lot of the above and this classic:

cinemaphile · 11-04-09, 09:04 PM

I dont think SAW was there - i think the post that came from was saying the movies he listed after that he SAW, but didnt purchase.

30smovies · 11-04-09, 11:02 PM

You're right cinemaphile, I think he misread my post, I didn't see SAW, I saw the movies I mentioned after that saying "saw"

although it did cross my mind after reading the post someone might easily think I had seen SAW.

Also want to point out I bought THE YOUNG IN HEART which is a different movie than YOUNG AT HEART which you list. The one at DT is the 1938 comedy with Janet Gaynor, Douglas Fairbanks Jr, and Paulette Goddard and I believe is the only pre-1950 "classic" to show up in this sale to date.

Thanks for compiling the list - to it you can add these titles I saw in this sale (this includes ones I mentioned in an earlier post that I didn't remember the names to):

Bigger Than the Sky
Extreme Adventures of Super Dave
Hilary Burnett's Pilates Intermediate
Memories of Me
Mr Accident
Our Winning Season
Real Men
Recipe for Disaster
Stargate Atlantis - Rising
Too Late the Hero

Looking these up on Amazon marketplace to get the titles I've noticed nearly all of them are available through Amazon marketplace new for a price that would be less than $6 after postage.

So waitaminute, you didn't see Saw? What you saw were the movies you saw after you said you saw Saw, but you didn't see Saw even though someone thought you saw Saw, because it looked like you saw Saw, but you meant that you didn't see Saw, but you saw movies other than Saw and not Saw itself?

movieguru · 11-05-09, 12:44 AM

Bought "A Guy Thing". Not much else interested me. I did see several different Thunderbirds dvd's. There was volume 6 and 2 others.
