Anyone else pick up those Bogart titles?

Anyone else pick up those Bogie discs that came out today? I bought To Have and Have Not on 10/27, Dark Passage and High Sierra yesterday, and picked up They Drive by Night today. I just watched the extras and checked over the transfer. They all look very good and have some good extras, especially To Have and Have Not. Dark Passage contains my personal favorite Looney Toons cartoon, Slick Hare. Overall, they are all well worth the purchase.

I'll pick up To Have and Have Not and maybe High Sierra but I'm not sure about the others.

I've been waiting on these for quite some time...

That translates to a "Hell Yes !!"

Thanks for the info on them as well.

To Have and Have Not is a major new release that's been extensively restored.

Of course many here have it.

I wanted desperately to pick them up today, but I'm just a little short on funds Hopefully I'll be ordering them in a couple more weeks.

Similarly, I went to DDD with the intent of buying them (and only them), and instead left with a copy of the Mondo Cane box set. When I got back to work, I had buyer's remorse and might even go back today to return the box.

I'll be picking up Dark Passage today. Which DVD has the cartoon where Bogie wants to order rabbit for "Baby"? That's my favorite Bugs cartoon.

ouch. such a pity. as much as I love the Bogie titles....I'd keep the box since it will be harder to come by later. the others you can always pick up another day.

I can't find any current thread in STL forum for the Bogey titles. I'm considering getting High Sierra and Dark Passage. If any one wants love of those either add your address to them in the STL database or post a message in the STL forum.

Edit: I found the thread in STL. I'll be ordering over the next few days, unless I find a better price elsewhere.

I can't find the box listed anywhere (i.e. in DVD Price Search).

Any deals on this bad-boy?

There is no box for these Bogies, that I know of. They are sold separately. That doesn't mean that it won't be boxed eventually.

I'd get the box if I didn't already have two of those titles (Casablanca and Sierra Madre).

Oh well.

There is only one "new" bogie there as others have said. Now why would any fan of Bogart not already have one or more of those previously released discs? And it really isn't such a good bargain. 3 of those discs can be had for $14 each. Casablanca for 12.50 (at Costco) and Treasure for $18 or so. Thats $72.50 without really shopping around. So there really is no incentive for anyone who already has any one of them to buy the set.

Anway, a box set should logically be the 4 discs released the same day.
