Re: General Costco DVD Thread
Stopped by my local Costco today...
They also had the $99 HBO sets for $30 off. So you can pricematch the 'Six-Feet Under' Target deal ($69.99) or grab 'The Wire' for $69.99. I think 'Get Smart' was another one. Can't remember the rest. Seemed like a decent deal for that stuff.

Costco does not price match.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
Exactly how are these HBO sets $30 off? I only see $15 off Blu-Ray sets. Is $30 off unadvertised for regular DVD?

My local Costco had a sign that said "Instant rebate of $30 off $99 HBO Box sets". And the sign was just above some HBO box sets. So I figure they take it off automatically at the register just like the Disney DVDs.

Picked up Die Hard. There wasn't a sign posted, but the register took off the $15 automatically.
Now I just have to figure out what to do with my other copy of Die Hard. I didn't realize all of the discs were in one BD case.

Found the TCM Forbidden Hollywood v.2 and TCM Forbidden Hollywood v.3 (Wellman) sets at Costco for $19.99 each. No sign of v.1. Costco item number is 469784, if that helps.

I saw a whole pile of "Matt Helm Lounge," the trilogy of Dean Martin spy movies, for $11.99. A good price, if you like Dino in his campy, 60's role.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
In case anyone is wondering upon seeing the set as two slim-line cases, rest assured each movie is on a separate disc and not double-sided discs.

Saw Saturday Night Live Season 1-4 box sets at my Costco (Lancaster, PA) yesterday for $18.99 apiece. Interestingly, only Season 4 came in the "limited" packaging, which is blue in color and sort of shaped like a textbook, complete with easily bent corners; seasons 1-3 were the ordinary boxes.

^ i believe universal intended on including "collectors" items for each of the original pressings for each season set. iirc, seasons 1 & 2 had a "scrapbook" and season 3 had lobby cards. unfortunately, i think season 4 had nothing but the limited edition sized box itself.

Odd: At my Costco (Madison Heights, MI), Season 3 was the book-packaged one, while the others were plain boxes. (It may've been S2, but it was just one of the four.)

I picked up THE MARX BROTHERS COLLECTION today for $15.99. I've never been real fond of their MGM work, Thalberg and the code watered them down way too much, but for $17 and change it seemed worth it. Even bad Marx Brothers is better than no Marx Brothers. Although I'm hoping the entire "Tenement Symphony" in THE BIG STORE is a chapter so I can easily skip it.

While I agree many of their later films such as a Night in Casablanca , the Big Store. and Go West are pretty bad, A Night At the Opera is better than anything they did at Paramount and A Day At The Races is almost as good.
Room Service and At The Circus are watchable. Sadly the quality of the Marx Bros films reached a peak with their first MGM film and went down from there, probably because Thalberg was only alive during when A Night At The Opera was made. He died before A Day At the Races finished production.
