The Two Towers: Most anticipated release?
 
I have never gotten excited over a dvd release before but I find myself doing just that in anticipation of Tuesdays release of The Two Towers.

Am I alone?

Maybe it's because I'm recently unemployed and don't have anything better to do right now. :P

My local Best Buy (Sterling, VA) will be opened from midnight to 1:00 AM tomorrow night specifically to sell TTT DVD. I have already planned to be there and call in sick on Tuesday. Hopefully, they will also sell Stitch the movie that night.

I think I'm the one who is alone. For me Mr. Show: The Complete 3rd Season is about the most excited I ever was for a new release.

I'll share your excitement when the extended edition comes out later on. There a lot of other DVDs I'm WAY more excited about coming out this Tues, than TTT.

I live in McLean, do you know if any other stores are doing this? Like Reston, Fairfax, Baileys, Tysons???

Circuit City will have it for one dollar cheaper! :D

I waited from Chungking Express for five years. I had to wait for a (legit) Two Towers copy for a matter of months...it's not biggy. Already have my pre-order in on the EE.

gutwrencher 08-24-03 06:53 PM

you are not alone. I am. I'm waiting for Beast From 20,000 Fathoms..:D. I'm getting LOTR2T also but I'm not that excited about it.

It appears that many Best Buy stores will be participating in this midnight sale. I know mine will be (Beaverton, OR), and it is even advertised in their Sunday paper insert. You should probably check with your local store to see if they are participating.

:up:

Last year, I almost went crazy waiting for FOTR to come out, but now that I've seen the glory of the Extended Editions, I can only hope November gets here soon.

I share your anticipation, but I am only buying the EE so my wait will continue for a couple of months.

nemein 08-24-03 07:29 PM

Kind of sorta (I found out the place I ordered it from shipped it Friday so hopefully I'll have it tomorrow :D, I think I'm going to wait until Labor Day though and rewatch Fellowship and then TT)... personally I'm in more "anticipation" of the announcement of B5 season 4 & 5 and further SG1 releases.

Nope. I hate the LOTR films...

However, my most anticipated release is the Indiana Jones Trilogy!!! The Lion King is a close second...

atari2600 08-24-03 09:28 PM

you are NOT alone! cant wait!

Jackskeleton 08-24-03 09:42 PM

If it was the extended edition I would be apart of the excitement. As it is I'm content with the screener and completely forgot that this week was it's release. :p

Geofferson 08-24-03 09:58 PM

I too can't wait (although the I am anticipating even more for the EE).

GMLSKIS 08-24-03 10:02 PM

I'm getting the DVD but it's not even close to my most anticipated release. I haven't even seen the movie but liked the first one and got a good deal on this one.

I'm much more anticipating:

Indiana jones
Finding Nemo
Lion King
Disney Treasures Mickey & Donald
Looney Tunes Gold
Friends Season 5
Duel
Wiseguy

I'm pretty jacked about this one, and I may even go to the midnight sale at BB locally. ANyone think they'd pricematch CC for the midnight sale?

Dazed 08-24-03 11:02 PM

I just want the TT EE to come out, I think ill just rent the 2 disc version thats coming on Tuesday, although ill be tempted to buy as its an awesome film :)

The Cow 08-24-03 11:18 PM

Not planning on getting it, so no...

LivingINClip 08-24-03 11:20 PM

*sigh*

I just don't know.. I waited and bought the EE of LOTR:FOTR, but I only midly enjoyed the first one...I saw LOTR:TTT and I loved it - so now I'm debating if I really want to wait or if I just want to double dip and buy 'em both.. Argh!!



...my...precious...

Bast 08-24-03 11:25 PM

TTT:EE and ROTK:EE (even if I haven't seen it!) are my most anticipated along with Seinfeld, whenever it comes out!

It says "only at Best Buy Sterling" on the BB Sunday ads. I live in McLean as well. See you there.
