What exactly is it? Is it a variation on Paperboy?

I have to go back and actually read the prices now. Speedy, I have to say that this really pisses me off and I hope it never happens again. And ignore the douchebag who made that early post in this thread because he's talking out of his ass- you in no way deserve any kind of negative email from anyone in this forum. The mature section of DVDTalk respects and appreciates your efforts.

Question about the Mission: Impossible DVD. Is it the original release or the release that came out a few weeks ago?
I gave you some props in the Target thread, Speedy. Your work is greatly appreciated each and every week.
Thanks.

So people actually emailed you to complain? Thats pretty fucked up. I never saw anything in threads but can you point to where?
For staying on top with these great threads all the time you should be made an honorary mod or something. Than you can ban those scumbags that bitch and rid this board of some of the trash.
Man, I hope bestbuy dont have much because it looks like Ill be getting about 4 freakin DVDs that week. Thanks for the early prices!

I want to give you a big Thank You Speedy!
People should never use the email service of Dvdtalk to attack a member. My guess is that they were saying things that would get them banned if they posted it. So they should be banned for sending the emails.

Speedy: Thank you as always. I used to post ads and it was a pain in the butt back then due to the large time committment and the few ungrateful members who would always complain. Thankfully you're here to provide this service for us.

DVD Talk Limited Edition
Thanks, as always, speedy.. It's a pretty slow week for me, with the only new release being Munich. I'll probably end up picking up Event Horizon as well, since I was going to wait for the DDD sale.. This'll be just as cheap.
I also want to commend you on all the time and work you put into these threads each week. You reply to just about each and every post of people asking what TVs are on sale, etc. When you could go the route of previous posters and say "This forum is about dvd bargains only."
You really are one of the good ones.

One question however... you listed a Zelda game for the Gamecube... is it Wind Waker or Four Swords that is on sale? Again, many thanks. Don't let a few asshats let you down as many more people love you for giving us these big head ups.

Just a heads up on Election which can be had for $2.99 after MIR up until May 17th @ FYE/Strawberries B&M. I know those rebates can be a real pain, but after having some rebates that took a really loooooooooong time I decided to fax them the info (free fax no.) and wouldn't you know it the rebates for Desp. Housewives, SW EPIII and ELR Season 4 showed up on their website on Thursday

DVD Talk Godfather & 2020 TOTY Winner
Thanks for the info, Speedy! I CERTAINLY appreciate your postings here, as do many others.
Those Mother's Day DVD deals are a first-rate bargain. I'll be getting Phantom DVDs for both my Mom and my Mother-In-Law-- they're almost the price I would normally spend on the card alone.
Also it's very good to know that MI:SE will be $9.99 next week. I can pick up a copy this week at BB for $15, get the free ticket inside, go see the flick next weekend and then get $5.50 back come Sunday's ad. That makes the DVD essentially free since movie tickets run $9.50 here.
edit : One thing you might want to revise in your post : The Springsteen release is a DualDisc. The DVD and bonus tracks are on every pressing of this title; it's not a Circuit City exclusive or anything.

i would say report them and post their screen names here so we can avoid helping them with any tidbits or nuggets or deals in the future. that is just ridiculous! they must be called out and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the DVDTalk law!!!!!
