Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
Also, besides the pkg, is there any difference in HP and the Philospher's Stone as opposed to the US Version.

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
The scene in Harry Potter where they talk about what the "Stone" is was shot twice- once with the word "Sorcerer's" and once with "Philosopher's". Those who've watched these more intensely say there's a few other subtle differences in that scene as well, but everything else is the same in both versions except for the title at the beginning. Just double-checked my Canadian disc and the MPAA logo is still at the end of the credits, even though this version wasn't shown in the US. The movie also has a Canadian French dubbed track (the US disc has Spanish instead) and the extras disc is in both English and French while the US disc is only in English.

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
Does anyone know if these eps. are on other, more complete discs or is this the only way to get them. I got 4 of them -- the 2 Spider-man, FF and a Hulk one, but 5 bucks seems like a lot for these (around 45mins) if there are better ways to purchase them. thanks.

With all due respect to JM33, I can't read this post without hearing it spoken in the voice of Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons...

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
I may do a little more research on this before I return them. I'd like to have the cartoons, but inevitably a better set comes along that replaces these short discs, that is a lot more inclusive and cheaper.
I've got the same problem w/ a Here's Lucy 4D from Shout! I bought at Ross. Now that season sets are coming out, there's little incentive to keep this.

Thank you, Mine will probably go back in that I'm a fan, but not a huge fan of HP and I've spent waaaayyy too much lately. Thanks again.

The store in Cool Springs TN, had several different of the Star Trek 2 disc sets, don't remember all of them. Also a couple copies of Get Smart 2 disc and the Canadian Dark Knight. 3 copies of World According to Garp as well only one wasn't a floater though.
I wound up grabbing Gone Baby Gone and Garfield Fantasies.

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
I thought that the season sets coming out were of "The Lucy Show", not "Here's Lucy", they are 2 different shows, "The Lucy Show" was her 1st sitcom after "I love Lucy" running from 1962–1968, and "Here's Lucy" was her 2nd running from 1968–1974. both shows co-starred Gale Gordon, but "Here's Lucy" also starred her children, Lucy Arnez and Desi Arnez Jr. by the way, her very short-lived 3rd sitcom from 1986 called "Life With Lucy", which only lasted 13 episodes, 8 of which were aired before it was cancelled, 5 of them never aired, also co-starred Gale Gordon. and when she did "Life With Lucy" she was 75 yrs old, Gale Gordon was 80.

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
Was the Sin City DVD you saw a bilingual cover (Canadian) version? Aren't the Candian versions different than the US releases because they often remove Spanish tracks/subtitles and put in French?

Yes, it was the Canadian version. Don't know the answer to the subtitles question.

MPI is releasing Here's Lucy, and CBS/Paramount is releasing The Lucy Show.
Shout! released The Best of the Here's Lucy Show. I would hang onto that one because its has a bunch of great special features--just in case MPI doesn't carry them over into the season sets.

Re: DVDs at Ross - Dress for Less!
Picked up Burn After Reading at Ross today.
By the way, I counted 4 or 5 copies of the extended 4-discs version of the Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King, and I also saw one copy of The Fall of the Roman Empire (the 3-discs Miriam Collection gift set).
