I would imagine that they would. Target carries "Brazil" and "The Last Emperor," for example.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

The only Criterion I have ever seen at Target is FLiLV, which is weird because I have seen it in every single Target store it has ever been in. I wonder if they have some sort or weird deal that they will stock FLiLV in all of their stores.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

i've seen that one and "Chasing Amy" for like $10.00 as well.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09

I don't see why it wouldn't be available everywhere. This was a HUGE movie. More mainstream movies like Life Aquatic and Royal Tenenbaums were everywhere (I remember specifically getting the 2 disc Life Aquatic at Walmart).

In for the Blu-ray, btw.

DVD Beaver review: http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film2/DVDRe...on_blu-ray.htm

Video looks pretty good. The commentary and the 3 hour long documentary sound great.

It's still a shame that Brad Pitt isn't on the commentary. He's great on the Fight Club and Se7en tracks.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

So excited about the Blu-Ray release :banana:

Also I got a look at the packaging today for the SD (I do inventory at my workplace) and it's a clear Amaray with slipcover for anyone interested.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Just a heads up, no commentary, extras or scene selections on the Netflix DVD rental.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

$19.99 ($22.99 - $3.00 coupon) for a 2-disc Criterion SDVD is not such a bad deal.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Never got it from amazon....damnit! They just emailed that they're sorry to not be able to get it to me. I pre-ordered the thing in March..why is not in my hands now?

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

I'm personally disappointed they didn't do anything creative for the artwork (also not a fan of the keepcases where you have one disc on each side), but otherwise, a solid DVD. The standard transfer is amazing.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Mine came with a tray for the second disc.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

The Blu-Ray doesn't; it has one on each side.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

I'd love to see a Polish poster for this.

Just got done seeing the review for this set on AOTS. Kevin calls it the "Criteri-Yawn Collection". :lol:

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Yeah, but it looked like he was talking about the DVD.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Has anyone tried removing the "Director Approved" sticker from the slipcase? I want to see if it'll come off easily or if it will leave all the residue.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Comes off very easily with no residue.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Ditto the Blockbuster in-store rental.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

I have never had such a hard time finding a slipcover in good condition. Every single slipcover at my Best Buy was either torn up, scratched, or falling apart. The slipcover I got was the best they had, and even it is in awful condition.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Yeah it comes right off without leaving any residue behind..thats really good too because most leave that sticky residue which is annoying and so ugly lol!

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

And that's why we should be thankful to the man who created Goo-Gone.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

I got my copy of the 2 disc Criterion release at Wal-Mart yesterday for 24.96 and yes that is a darn good deal. I have two Wal-Marts and the other one wanted 29.96 so I just bought it at the one that had it for 24..lol!

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 5/5/09
 

Same for the standard def. dvd well at least mine anyways. I like it better than the flip tray thing as it's easier.
