There's about a half a dozen in there that I'll gladly pick up. But...I'd like some more, please.

Nice Universal news... I'm getting a ton of those titles and am really excited about Frighteners, Big Lebowski, Bruce Almighty, In Good Company, Darkman, Heroes, BSG and all the day and date new releases (breach, hot fuzz, knocked up). Decent slate.
