Like most Universal catalog titles, Kindergarten Cop has already dropped in price. Currently $10.49 at Amazon. Their titles tend to hover around $10, but this has been $16 since release at the end of June.

Good find, thanks. I'll pick it up for that price.

Down to $9.96 now.

Isn't the transfer on this pretty questionable? No extras either, other than the trailer.

This is one I'd actually wait to hit $4.99. I'm not sure this Blu-ray has much to offer, other than the quality of the film itself, of course.

yeah, no way I'm paying more than $5 bucks on this.

3 out of 5 at BD.com on PQ:
Kindergarten Cop enrolls on Blu-ray with a decent but troubled 1080p transfer. Universal's presentation fluctuates greatly, frequently delivering well-defined imagery but occasionally showcasing soft, murky shots, too. The image additionally flips between grainy, sharp, textured scenes and a number that take on a significantly smoother and flatter appearance. Generally, detail satisfies. The 1080p resolution boosts the film a good deal over standard, revealing clothing and skin textures with significantly greater accuracy at the nitty-gritty level. Likewise, odds and ends around the classroom enjoy a boost in clarity, too. Colors are never truly bold; the palette feels tired and drained, with the best moments coming in the colorful classroom but still failing to truly deliver a knockout sort of color explosion in those scenes. While skin tones aren't overly problematic, blacks frequently look rather flat and lifeless and show a little crush. The picture struggles with minor compression issues and lightly troubling color transitions, at times. Additionally, minor halo effects are visible in some shots, and the picture occasionally displays a fair bit of dirt and wear. This is watchable image, certainly, and a step up from previous home video releases, but fans won't be blown away by any stretch of the imagination.

I have a problem with the sound for this release as it's only a 2.0 for whatever reason. I'll keep my DVD version.

They weren't doing films like this in 5.1 back then- there was no digital sound on 35mm yet, so only the really big movies that got released in 70mm had it.

I was under the impression that the DVD was a 5.1 DD. I need to find my DVD and check.

My DVD (from the Arnold Comedy 3 pack) has only 2.0. Same is true for the other two titles in the pack (Twins, Junior). And I'm good only having a DVD of those titles.

I have the exact pack so I was wrong.

That's disappointing about the transfer. Is it as bad as Weird Science? The iTunes version of that looks better, but not by much. I wonder if the same applies here. It hit my sweet spot of under $10 since it comes with the iTunes/UV DC.

It's $7.99 at Fry's right now, along with several other recent Universal catalog titles.

Is Mallrats included? I'm not sure what others have come out recently.

A lot of them have been showing up at Costco for the same price.

Didn't notice Mallrats on sale, but I didn't really keep track. Bring it On was though, at less than half of what I paid for the DVD on its release date. I wanted Slap Shot and/or Airport but those weren't on sale, but still relatively cheap. Can't buy everything!

Bad

4.99 at Frys this week

That is probably what it is worth. The transfer is reportedly terrible, one of those ancient Universal jobs done years ago.
