I dont know about you guys, but I sure am. There isnt anything big or anything really good coming out xmas time. Of course lotr tt box is, but thats just one. I was kinda expecting a little more to look forward to this holiday season. And I was expecting freddy vs. jason to make the cut but it didnt!

Wow.

I guess getting Indiana Jones released on DVD is no big deal ....

honestly to me it isnt. I have seen those films at least 40 times each in my whole life and i feel no purpose on buying it when they are played out for me. But good point, i forgot about that.

There is so many coming out before Xmas season that im kinda glad its slowing down so I can catch up on the 20 or so disc's I havnt picked up yet,plus Indy is coming out this week so it makes up for it.

Also dude i dont know if you like Aliens Trilogy but thats coming out in Nov. sometime and thats going to be stacked.

Historically, November is the biggest month for DVD releases, followed closely by October. December has a few big titles, but is disappointing compared to the previous two months. (I think the lack of titles in December is what nickmondo1 is let down by.)

This year isn't any different, but Paramount arguably switched October and November's positions by moving the IJ set up.

Christmas falls on 10/28 this year.

screw December. I have over 75 titles between now and 12/25. PLENTY to pick up...including December. as far as I'm concerned....X-mas starts Tuesday.

December is always light on bigtime releases. Same with music CDs. I guess the logic is that most shoppers start holiday buying in November, and may not have the cash to fork over in early to mid-December for more product (especially box sets, which are higher priced than single discs).

I think the DVD release this year is pretty spectacular, in my opinion:

October: "Ultimate Vacation Collection," "Matrix Reloaded," "Indiana Jones Trilogy," "Looney Tunes Golden Collection."

November: "Finding Nemo," "Honeymooners Complete Collection," "Pumping Iron," "Mystery Science Theater 3000: Volume 4," "Terminator 3," "La Strada," "Naked Lunch," "LOTR: TTT Extended Edition," "Once Upon a Time in the West."

December: "Alien Quadrilogy Box Set"

I know there are lots of others. But those mentioned are the ones that are immediately appealing to me. No, I am not at all disappointed in this holiday lineup. Any more and I would have to cash in my 401K account.

don't forget...

John Carpenter's Escape From New York: Special Edition in december!!!

yay!

I'll have Pirates of The Carribean by then, so I'll be happy.

certainly does..or rather 28/10 where i come from

I'm not disappointed at all. If you ask me, the next few months are loaded with great dvds.

I like my December:
To live and die in L.A. Darling and the latest Woody Allen for Christmas Eve. And I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of other interesting stuff.

My Collection

I am eagerly waiting for Young Sherlock Holmes.

I don't care much for extra features so I will happily keep watching the version I already have. I just noticed that I have quite a few John Carpenter DVDs - 5 to be exact. Do you have alot of his stuff BlackBeauty92?

It's usually a harvest of releases in November, so maybe December releases are purposely a tad on the thin side so you'll get your butts into theaters.

No Goodfellas SE, No Schindler's List. I was gonna post how this will be a disappointing Christmas. The only one I really can't wait to get my hands on is Bad Boys 2.

I'd add X-Men 2 to that list (11/25)

This is the best time of the year!!!!

Schizopolis Criterion
Naked Lunch Criterion
Indiana Jones box set
Two Towers: Extended
X2: X-men united
Pirates of the Carribean
Finding Nemo
Escape From New York SE
Terminator 3
Bruce Almighty
Seabiscuit
New seasons of Sopranos, Sex and the City, South Park, Deep Space 9, X-Files, Buffy, Highlander, and Friends!

I can't wait!

Two Towers: EE

'Nuff said.

Don't forget the next wave of Disney Treasures on 12/2.

City of God is coming in December, so that title alone makes this a great Christmas for DVDs.

Can't wait.

no, not really... i believe that's all i got from carpenter... just 5

i wanna get more, but the rest of his film hardly got the treatment that it deserve from the $tudio....
i'm a fan of Carpenter's work, but i rather spend my money wisely

oh, just ordered Assault of Precinct 13: SE

Carpenter = God

nah j/k

Terrific, I made a post here this morning just saying what great dvd's are coming out and now it's gone. Terrific.

I can't believe how many good DVDs are coming out in the next few weeks... it just totally blows my mind... really, I have about $1000 worth of stuff...in the next 3 weeks ALONE!!!! I am certainly not even CLOSE to disappointed in the releases slated for the Christmas season.
