Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
 
Certainly a bit of IFC/MPI and First Look Studios dump, looking at those titles listed. There are a couple more stores around me that I visited today and picked up:
  • Marine 3
  • Marine 4
  • Inescapable (Marisa Tomei)
  • Love, Wedding Marriage
  • A Bag of Hammers
  • Indian Summers Season 1 DVD
  • Griffin & Phoenix DVD (big fan of Amanda Peet)
  • 4 Films in 1 Comedy collection DVD (Meet Bill, The Amateurs, Relative Strangers, $corched)
  • Tsunami Aftermath (HBO)

Bought a lone copy of Point Blank(1967)-yes the Lee Marvin movie, on blu. It's unclear if this store had a restock, it was mostly dvds with 2 other blu's, one was a ray liotta/seth green movie, which I passed on. They did have 2 dvd's of Palo Alto, which appears to be a part of the restock. They were in electronics aisle, solar lights up front.

Dang, wish my stores would have got this one.

Thanks for the tip on the "Electronics" section, otherwise I wouldn't have found them I managed to get "Hail, Caesar", "Super", and "The Warrior's Way" on BD. There was also a BD called "The Assassin" from WellGo USA that I decided to buy "Blind".

I've been checking my closest store this week. There's an assortment of exercise DVDs in the electronic section. Nothing on the front display yet, but I wouldn't be shocked if something went in today.

Hit the local DT; the rack was pretty full & the checker said there were more boxes. What was interesting is that dvd's seemed to be outselling blu's 4 to 1. The rack was still fairly full & the blu's were segregated. Quality of titles MAY have been the reason.

Mostly blind buys:

Blu
Walking With Dinosaurs 3d blu, 2d blu & DVD
Enough Said
Jurassic Park 3d blu, 2d blu & DVD

DVD
Bat Masterson Best Of S1
Indian Summers (PBS) S1
Mad About You S1
In Old Chicago
Experimenter
Manglehorn

I was told to check back Sunday
Amityville Horror Original

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
 
Picked up the following on BD...

The Squid and the Whale/Running with Scissors
The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Not a big selection at the store I went to last night. Mainly dvds, but not much of anything of interest.

I have three Dollar Trees in a three mile radius. Hit all three this morning but they were pretty much picked clean. One store did have a few of the big box sets though, including an ESPN Films set with what may be a store exclusive attached.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
 
I hit most of the stores Friday, since the 3 I looked at Thursday didn't have anything out yet.
This sale seems more divided as two of the stores I went to only had DVD's, no blu-ray's to be found.

Some of the ones I haven't seen mentioned yet (this sale), that I picked up:
Decoy Bride (BD)
Atlas Shrugged Part II (BD)
What Massie Knew (BD)
Flypaper (BD)
Time Out of Mind (BD)

Forever Knight Trilogy Part 1 (Season 1) (DVD)

If anyone picked up Snow Girl and the Dark Crystal, you might want to pop it in and check some pressings are Deep Sea Blues.

two stores around me in SoCal also have had restocks - ONLY DVDs and no BDs..Yet they were all being scooped up eagerly

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
 
By the time I made it back in to look at the other boxes, they were already out & picked through. I miss the days when I bought a ton for my net business & got to look at Big Lots boxes before they hit the floor.

I did not get to my local store until today, but did find Panic in the Streets.

That's just what happens when you're selling Blu-rays for a dollar

You'd be proud of me- I restrained myself from buying stuff that would further clutter up my shelves. The ESPN sets looked really nice, but 1) I'm not into sports and 2) they exist on Blu-Ray, so buying them on DVD would be a waste. There was a 5-disc set of BMX videos too which I also passed up.

Keep in mind the ESPN Blu Ray set was also showing up at some stores and could have cluttered up your shelves less.

I would have bought that if I had found it. Maybe it’s best that I didn’t find it.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
 
I don't believe anybody's mentioned finding The Almighty Johnsons season 1, which has popped-up at a few local DT's. I've never heard of the series myself, but bought 2 sets, possibly just for the lovely non-eco, 14mm 3-disk cases.

I believe it was a New Zealand production or something that got picked up by Syfy for broadcast here. I have no idea why anyone thought it would be a big Blu-ray seller.

When this last batch of media was being reported, I started checking my store daily. It's nice when many times you don't have to get out of the car to look--a glance through the front door can usually indicate if there are solar lights or something else.

It was last Saturday afternoon that things were put out for me--the display was actually 1/2 media and 1/2 solar lights. :)

I was very pleased to grab:

Heroes Season 3 (BD)
The Identity (BD)
30 Rock Season 3 (DVD)
ESPN Film Collection Vol. 1 (5 DVD set)
SEC Storied: Volume 1 (DVD--5 films)
ESPN 30 for 30: Season 2, Films 1-15 (DVD, along with a bonus disc of shorts on the back)
Teddy Roosevelt: An Adventurous Life which includes DVD (The indomitable Teddy Roosevelt), Sophisticated Sousa CD & Historic Archives/Booklet

Pretty good haul for $7.xx

Not much else in the way of BDs that I noticed, at least worth mentioning.

I believe I saw almost all if not all of those weeks ago. I wonder if that store had some inventory they didn't put out till now.
