but just logicistically, how is this possible? as someone would have to open factory sealed dvds and insert a card into each one and reseal them. or am i missing something here?
So they never re-press DVDs? I always assumed they kept pressing them as they needed new stock.. But if they press their entire run and store them in a warehouse until they're ready to go somewhere, then that would be something new I learned..

yep add jaws to that list too. i meant weird promotion in that there was really no promotion advertised. bttf released, but there was no mention of it in ads. and then, the following week (which will be next week), ads show the exclusive film cell. but still, there is no mention of the other exclusive dvds listed above. and there really is no reason lol.

meh okay maybe its just me.

I hate this new trend of putting out exclusives for a title years after the DVD was released. I enjoy hunting for exclusives at the time a movie is released. But years later? I'm just not interested in getting all these movies again.
