Re: Big Lots Part 4

Saw pretty much the same stuff others are mentioning at store #1. I'd guess about 75% restock from Sony, Warner, Focus Universal & key; & 25% new titles. None of the new titles are particularly exciting. Display was 4 wide by 3 deep total of 12 cardboard trays.

My store #2 once again said they got nothing.

Thanks for the heads up! I found one stashed behind the PC games. Unfortunately I couldn't find any copies of "The Pianist" left.

Also picked up Renaissance, despite practically everyone saying it's more style over substance. For $3 I'll take that chance.

I found a new small shipment most of them are First Look titles

Meet Bill (with slipcover)
Smiley Face
Blood Brothers (John Woo Presents)

And also there was one Ventura/Adness title that I saw and purchased:

The Executioners (Sonny Chiba)

Thats the only Adness one that they had.

Re: Big Lots Part 4

Finally got the "new" stuff here. Picked up:
Apollo 13 (2 disc)
Chances Are (WS)
Wise Guys
Doctor Detroit
Josie & the Pussycats(PG-13 version)
and one that I don't recall being mentioned:
Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry.

I remember when that VHS was one tough mother to find and now it's $3 on dvd. I guess that's a good thing, right?

So they are getting Anchor Bay titles. That's great news. I was kicking my self for not picking it up when it went OOP. Still haven't seen the new titles though.

I picked up "big empty" a couple of weeks back, and I really enjoyed it. I would recommend it to anyone that likes offbeat comedies like "the big lebowski"

Good. I haven't seen it, so hopefully it's good. I just got it because of the cast.

I wouldn't say your going to find a bunch of anchor bay titles in the near future because the Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry box has either a Universal or Sony logo, I can't recall which because I didn't buy it. It appears to be a co-production or co-distribution deal with Anchor Bay.

This is sad because I too would like to see some Anchor Bay titles come along.

Re: Big Lots Part 4

I'm actually wondering if DMCL is a shipment anomaly? I haven't seen anyone else post finding it and only one store in my area seems to have gotten them in. I saw at least 4 copies at the store where I found it and bought one.

Re: Big Lots Part 4

only one store by me has DMCL out of 5.

I finally got my Ride with the Devil and swapped my floater Slither. So I might be done till a new shipment?

I've seen RwtD at 1 store... many copies
Sweet and Lowdown ws/flipper at 2 stores... many copies
Land of the Dead unrated/directors at 1 store... not many copies
Romper Stomper 2 disc at 1 store... not many copies
Gosford Park at 2 stores... many copies
Seed of Chucky at 1 store... many copies
Those hammer frankenstien discs at three stores...not many copies

That's what I recall off the top of my head.

Found Doctor Detroit at the Aston, PA store. However, I don't recall seeing other copies. Still hunting for Wise Guys and City of Lost Children.

A blind buy, First Look's Meet Bill, with Aaron Eckhart, Jessica Alba & Elizabeth Banks. I couldn't pass up a plastic slipcover, and great cast, but know nothing about the film.

Picked up one of these too, just because of the nice physical presentation of the dvd. Haven't seen it yet, but I liked the premise. Can anyone else chime in?

Surprisingly, I liked the movie a lot. Oddball kinda story at times that didn't make me lose my interest one bit. I went into it with low expectations which may have helped, but in the end, I highly recommend it.
