Thanks "rkndkn" and "Manzana" for the lists. But "World Trade Center (3 Disc Deluxe/Commemorative Edition)", did you mean 2-discs? Mine only had the 2-discer. :(

It's almost gotta be the 2 disc. The only 3 disc version of the movie was a Target exclusive, and the chance of that getting into Wal-Mart isn't very good.

I changed it to 2-disc on the list (which is what I saw at mine, also). Manzana had written 3-disc, so not sure if it was in error. . . Let me know if anyone sees a 3-disc.

It really is the 3 disc version at my Walmart. Paramount catalog #790166. The original UPC is covered with a sticker which says 032429016683. Not only does it say "3-Disc Set" on the spine, but I opened mine and there are 3 DVDs inside: "Feature Film", "Special Features", and "Bonus Disc". There's no insert though...

TheMovieman 09-23-07 05:16 PM

Wow. Nice find. Anyway, I doubt mine had that version. Maybe another will and if so, dunno if it's worth paying another $4 for an extra disc. Anyone watch that bonus disc?

dead_rsng53 09-23-07 06:28 PM

No display at my WM...

Well that sure shut me up. I just checked that UPC, that's the Target exclusive 3 disc version. I wonder what that's doing in Wal-Mart stores. I hope I can find this at my store now. I already have the 2 disc, but I'd upgrade for $4.

None at the Strongsville Walmart in Ohio. :(

These Target exclusives must come from a shared warehouse. I just got Dexter from Barnesandnoble.com, and it was the Target Exclusive, with sticker and all.

I ordered Superman Doomsday for instore pickup at Best Buy last week and the version I got was from Walmart with the sticker advertising their exclusive CD-rom comic book.

orion1998_1 09-23-07 08:33 PM

360... 09-23-07 09:54 PM

is it in a bin like the 5 dollar one or is it on the racks? cause i went today and they only had the 5 dollar bin, but i rember seeing dickie roberts in the bin so i dont know?

kenbenobi 09-23-07 10:22 PM

Wow, some nice titles for 4 bucks. I'll be checking my stores tomorrow...

TheMovieman 09-23-07 10:48 PM

It's in a cardboard stand (all four sides have a DVDs).

Went back to mine and no 3-disc WTC and no Chumbscrubber either. Also went to another WM across town and they didn't even have the stand. I might try again later in the week...

For anyone in the Eugene/Springfield area, the one I got mine at is the Springfield store. W11 doesn't have it yet.

Zbu 09-23-07 11:34 PM

Exactly what is up with Walmart's inconsistency between stores? Seriously, one in my area doesn't even have the Dreadtime Stories anymore. That just seems weird.

longdillon1 09-23-07 11:48 PM

No luck at my walyworld!

Digigeek06 09-23-07 11:51 PM

I Picked up Phone Both,Freeway and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, all Anamorphic Widescreen with 5.1 Did not see any WTC though or i would have picked that up as well.

gryffinmaster 09-24-07 12:05 AM

There's a lot of good items in that list, but Perfume: The Story of a Murderer for $4 is a major steal. :up::up:

Unfortunately, the Freeway back cover is inaccurate and it recycles the same non-anamorphic transfer from the original release.

No luck at the new Pflugerville TX location or the Round Rock (79 and redbud). I hope I have better luck at the north Austin or 2nd Round Rock location.

shyguy1083 09-24-07 01:01 AM

anyone have luck in any so. cal stores yet? been to baldwin park, puente hills, and glendora and so far none have had any set-up for these movies.

FangsFirst 09-24-07 02:22 AM

No to Durham-CH and Hillsborough in NC. Anyone in Raleigh check? I know there are some fellow Triangle folk on here...

ChipHP 09-24-07 10:17 AM

I called a couple of Dallas area SuperCenters ... and they didn't have them ... and hadn't heard of the promotion ... but sometimes it takes a week or 10 days for some of these DVD promotion displays to show up here after they are posted here.

I realize it's a crapshoot getting accurate info on the phone ... but I am not about to drive all over town in hopes of finding a display.

Adrenaline 09-24-07 11:41 AM

Just got back from the Columbia, MD Walmart. Nothing, I'm going to try the Ellicott City and Catonsville ones either tonight or tomorrow night.
