Past experience has been that the website isn't live until the weekend the ad is released to the public, so I doubt more info will be available until this weekend.

Although, when Alice in Wonderland came out with a doorbuster, weren't there some midnight stores honoring the same price the following morning too? YMMV if so, but it may be worth a call, just in case.

I would suspect that this is meant to tie in with Roger Waters' current tour of "The Wall." Waters was the guy in Pink Floyd who came up with the concept and wrote most of the songs. He's getting a lot of attention paid on the tour - and is even on the cover of Rolling Stone at the moment.

Well according to reports Legenary will come out on DVD exclusively at Wal-Mart on 9/28 while the Blu-Ray comes on Blu-Ray exclusively at Best Buy. And its not that weird if you think that Best Buy seems to be getting all kinds of WWE exclusives(the Blu-Rays that have come out there,and the exclusive Bret Hart SvR2011 download).

yet I've not seen it go very cheap for a while (I think I saw $20 about a months ago). Remember when the release of a sequel meant that the previous movie would go on sale cheap? Do businesses not realize there is a recession still going on or are movies only for the rich now?

With this doorbuster pricing, can you do in-store pickup between those hours and still get that pricing?

Any word on the TV prices? I'm supposed to find a 32" HDTV for about $250 for a raffle for work by October 1st and I'm going insane trying to locate one...

Good luck. I don't think prices have fallen that much. I'm guessing $300 is the best you'll find until Black Friday.

The DVD is coming out at Wal*Mart next week as an exclusive.
That's why the DVD at Best Buy doesn't come out til 12/28, but the Blu comes out on 9/28.
It's the first time I've seen an exclusive like that, but that's how they decided to handle it.

He asked if you can do in-store pickup between those hours, which I assumed meant he would show up during the hours of the doorbuster sale to pick up the movie.

I'm pretty sure he meant can he do a store pickup at the doorbuster price if he were to do a store pickup online during those hours, and then pick it up later. So get it at the doorbuster price without actually being there at opening.
