Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
I nabbed those 2 a few weeks ago ago. Haven't watched them yet (the pile is HUGE!). I remember enjoying #1 on dvd, so I will likely enjoy both.

Until the new Superstore near my house opens sometime in September, it's somewhat of a drive either East or Northwest for the next closest store; so unless I read of something here I'm not bothering.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
Found a modest haul of $3 and $5 3D combo titles at a Michigan store this weekend. These weren't on the rack last weekend, and there were some other new-ish odds 'n ends, but not sure if this is new stock or just stuff that was taking up space in the back. Thus, ymmv.
PUSS IN BOOTS - 3D/Blu/DVD/Digital - $5
KUNG FU PANDA - 3D/DVD - $5
47 RONIN - 3D/Blu/DVD/Digital - $3
PARANORMAN - 3D/Blu/DVD/Digital/Ultraviolet - $5
Also got:
HOLIDAY INN - Blu/Digital - $3
RUMBLE IN THE BRONX - Blu (markdown to $2.50)

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
New batch at the Superstore. Blu's were mostly either very weak titles, or titles I hadn't heard of. I bought 1 in blu: In Old Arizona $3.00. Blind buy.
Lots of new dvd's also. Again, a combination of stuff I wouldn't have paid $1.00 for; with a few decent titles overpriced for liquidation at $5.00. There was a Guillermo Del Torro title I wasn't familiar with I would have done a blind buy on at $3, but not at $5. Again 1 blind buy for me on dvd: Cary Grant & Audrey Hepburn is Charade at $3.00

I really like Charade. It's absolutely worth a $3 blind buy.
There wasn't much "new" here today. Like you observed, a few decent titles but overpriced at $5 with some at $10 (mostly those Disney "previously viewed" titles but also a couple of others). There were several I might have purchased at $3 but not at all for $5.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
The store I went to had them, but since they're all children's films & I don't do 3d, I didn't think to mention it. If Puss In Boots had been $3 I would have picked it up.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
And to think I only mentioned them a week ago!
Glad to see folks finally picking them up.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
I think I'd go with KFP 3D as the best of the bunch, but Megamind is excellent. Peabody and Sherman I thought was quite fun though I understand why folks didn't like it as much

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
2 more Big Lots stores here just closed, and one I went to drastically reduced their movie selection- just a meager pile of discs on a shelf, no more free-standing area. Big Lots is why I have so many damn DVDs in the first place, but the party may be finally over.

I do agree 100% that there film selection is nothing like 5 years ago or so.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
I saw
How The West Was Won $5
Holiday Inn $3
Time Traveller's Wife $3
HTWWW was the standard version of film no smilebox version.
Holiday Inn was the version prior to last year's 75th Anniversary edition but I believe it is the same transfer of the film. I think the only difference is this version doesn't have a second disc with the recent Broadway version of the film.

The "superstore" has opened. I think they get truck on Monday, so I'll likely check it out Tuesday.

Never seen Megamind, but I did pick up Rise of the Guardians and Peabody & Sherman from my local BL. Watched Rise of the Guardians yesterday w/ the toddler, it's surprisingly well done. Lots to appreciate and gorgeous vq/aq as well.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
I did like this one, but thought the first one Legend of the Guardians might be better. Both are excellent for 3D however. They didn't do all that well at the Box Office so I was disappointed though not surprised they didn't continue the series.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
Picked up some 3D blu mentioned above for $5.
Also found SON OF GOD - digibook for $3 ( BD + DVD + 28page book) it is hard to locate since it has a cardboard covering on it and looks like DVD size. I accidentally stumbled upon it.
Also Turbo BD+DVD+DC with toy for $5.
