The Way Way Back
A solid flick.

Sorry to hear about your car, Strapped4Cash.

Stopped by local DT this evening. Table by the door was nearly full of DVD's. Additionally, there were about 5 movie boxes stacked on the floor in front of the table. All were opened with a few discs missing from each. I assume the Blu-Ray's had all been picked out because there wasn't one BD to be found. I ended up only getting one DVD: their sole copy of The Art Of Getting By with Freddie Highmore and Emma Roberts.

Picked up a lone copy of Gene Hackman and Anne Archer's 'Narrow Margin'. Great locales, woefully miscast Hackman with the same attitude and acting seen in every movie he has starred in, plotholes through the roof and a twist ending you can see coming from a million miles. In other words, a buck well spent

Coincidentally, it's Hackman's 88th birthday today!

I've seen early reports that movies are supposed to be the Item of the Week for the upcoming week (the 27th).

Thanks for the tip! I went into the local store yesterday; they said the shipment had just come in & would not be on the floor until Friday.

Cool that they let him go back there and shoot the video. A lot of those titles have been there before, but I'll grab Kindergarten Cop 2 if I see it- Universal didn't see fit to release that on Blu-Ray.

JohnIan 04-26-18 05:15 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Thank you.

I needed good news.

And more good cases.

Will keep my eye out... and phone my store later today.

bobwil54 04-26-18 07:30 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Picked up the following
Humbling
Cold Deck
Alien Outpost
The Keyman
Safelight
Transformers Prime One Shall Stand

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I only took home (for cases) "Miss Meadow", eight of them.

There's a mockumentary on "Weird Al" out there. Didn't not see the DVD.

Called another store; their shipment will be out later this weekend.

Need more cases since all of these will be put to use with zero to spare.

And I would like to find that Weird Al release.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
The Compleat Al has been spotted at Dollar Tree?!? I haven't picked that up yet because I haven't seen it at my price point, will gladly get it for only $1.

MooMooMooMoo 04-28-18 02:07 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I went in today. They had 5 identical boxes that had not hit the floor. No blu's; only dvd I felt was worth mentioning was Reality bites if you don't have it yet.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Restrained myself as I'm out of shelf space, but got Mirror Mirror on Blu-Ray as well as a disc of the new CG Pac-Man cartoon, Pants on Fire, and Tiger Eyes (written by Judy Blume, including a commentary track with her.) Saw tons of Sex Tape on Blu-Ray, but the free digital copy that mistakenly went out before release date was quite enough. They must've lost a ton of money on that movie.

JohnIan 04-28-18 08:07 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Picked up more "Miss Meadow" for cases.

And three blind buys; "Plastic", "Mr. Untouchable" and "Framed".

No "Weird Al" at least not yet.

Strapped4Cash 04-28-18 08:30 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I went to 10 stores, lots of repeats, stuff I already owned, a lot more that I had zero interest in.

Ah well, I've had some great luck in the past.

Lots of the same DVD's in quantity, like:
Contest
Miss Meadow
My One and Only
Northern Borders
State of Emergency
Viking Legacy
Worth

1 store had 20+ of an Astonishing X-Men Marvel Knights DVD
and another store had 12+ of a Superhero Squad Quest Volume 1

Some had lots of random of 1-2 copy DVD titles, like:

Excalibur
Hollow Point
Honey
Kindergarten Cop 2
Nick & Nora
Whole Ten Yards

JohnIan 04-29-18 11:58 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
My last store around me.

Nope. No "Weird Al" and just some more cases - which I needed.

That's about it.

Thanks for the info guys.

rbrown498 04-30-18 09:34 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Something to note: those DVDs of which there are only a copy or two may be "previously-enjoyed" copies. I bought a copy of Legally Blonde that I discovered was used only after I got home and started taking off the shrink-wrap. In the bottom left corner on the back was a sticker that I hadn't noticed in the store that said that it was a used copy. It seems to be in pretty good shape, however.

Live and learn.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
FYI for anyone looking for the Weird Al DVD in the KC area - I was in the 47th street location ( just west of Oklahoma Joe's ) on Saturday, & they probably had 6-7 copies.

JohnIan 05-24-18 03:03 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Thanks for the info.

But I'm in Southern California.

Some comfort that it is - out there.

DiggityDawg 05-26-18 03:50 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
BTW - I was back in that location I mentioned above this morning, & they had SIXTEEN ( !!! ) copies of the Weird Al DVD.

Did they have the baby aspirin I was after? No.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
It's been a couple weeks since I went to a DT. Wondering if it's still worthwhile for the current batch.

JohnIan 05-27-18 02:41 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

current batch
???

Most of them were picked cleaned. The only thing I've seen that remains is a bunch of the workout DVDs.

Mickactual 06-07-18 10:29 PM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Local DT had a boatload of DVD's and a (very) few BluRay's. Not sure if this is a delayed placement of the late May batch that showed up or a new batch.
Mostly the usual suspects: Hallmark films, kids films, exercise DVD's.

A few others that stood out in my mind:
Rachel Getting Married
Speed Racer
Stargate The Ark Of Truth
The Longest Ride
Parental Guidance


Numerous copies of everything there. Nothing really grabbed my fancy except this 2-DVD version of Ain't Them Bodies Saints.

Was at DT last night, my store also had new stuff out.

Tons of copies of Borat.

Took home several copies of "Vera Drake" for cases and a couple of "Plastic" for the same.

Did buy "Noobz" and "Avengers Grimm" to watch.

Looked, no copies of that "Weird Al" mocumentary.

I still have yet to see a single DVD or Blu-ray ever in a local Dollar Tree.

My kids and I love "Weird Al." What mockumentary?!

MooMooMooMoo 06-10-18 02:19 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I went to a DT today. They had 1 br I've never heard of. It was kind of a weird one (sorry, I can't remember the name), I almost spent $1 on it. Also maybe 20 dvd's; the best known one was About Schmidt. They weren't on a display, they were with the electronics.

JohnIan 06-10-18 02:51 AM

Out there is a DVD mockumentary on W.A.. Hard to find, but some have found at Dollar Tree.

- - -

Went to two more DTs, bought more cases and got "Sweetwater", A Dreamers Do: The Amazing Life Of Walt Disney", "Manglehorn" (with slipcover) and "RoboCop" remake. The last was a good deal for a buck. I was going to buy it last Black Friday, but even at four bucks... one dollar is a good price.

Lots of new stuff at my local store today. Not good stuff, mind you, but stuff. :)

I bought some more cases, but this was the stuff that had left over from the last sale.

What are you finding Cardsfan111?

Nothing noteworthy--more exercise titles, kids/animated (I recall a 2 disc (?) Hot Wheels show) stuff, etc.

Thanks for the info guys.

Took home more cases, this time transparent ones.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I just hit my local store, and I was surprised to find a half-dozen copies of The IT Crowd: Season Two. I also picked up Won Ton Ton, the Dog Who Saved Hollywood and The Super 6: The Series.

Everything else that I saw has already been mentioned earlier in the thread.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
I hit the local store today (Tuesday). For once they had a lot, but it was junk. 2 br titles, & a ton of dvd's. Only title I remember was Borat; nothing was even worth $1.

JohnIan 07-25-18 05:36 AM

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 
Added more cases, nothing special.

Mine also had Season 1 of "The IT Crowd". I didn't see any other seasons but admit I only casually looked.

Wish I could find these amazing deals you all are getting! Haha I think I may have to check in other cities or something

I actually saw a dvd worth owning today (of course, I already have it): Bloom County/Opus: A Wish For Wings That Work. Probably should have picked them up for ebay.
