Damn, I don't have my Oz receipt from my release-week purchase. I think they can do receipt lookup, though.

Is the BD packaging inside the Oz Ultimate edition box the size of SD amaray packaging, or the shorter BD? Pictures look like it's the SD size...

GWTW and OZ will be $12.99 during Black Friday at Target. So if you buy...hold onto your receipts! |
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
Oz, yes. GWTW, no idea.

Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
the GWTW that Target will have is supposed to only be disc 1, isn't that what we heard?

If I get it all I would need is the one disc. There is enough documentary information floating around I really don't need the extras. I owned the DVD then sold it without ever watching it. The last time I saw this movie was on VHS the day my son was born more than 20 years ago. SHe was in labor but still had plenty of time before we went to the hospital. Good way to kill 4 hours.

Disappointed Target doesn't have their one disc GWTW Blu on sale this week. Don't really know If I really want to fight the BF crowds just to pick that up for $12.99. I was hoping for a $19.99 price on that this week.

You won't be able to PM the BF deal using your old receipt. My wife and I pre-bought everything we wanted last year and attempted this, but they refused. So I said, "So I have to go buy everything again and then return it? BRB..." 5 minutes later I had a full cart of newly purchased merchandise they had to restock after I returned on the old receipt. They sure showed me. All of their corporate communication is given incident numbers, so if there is any question they should be able to call their home office and they should be able to find the communication via that incident number. |

Not true at least last year. I went and wrote to Target corporate earlier in the week and asked clarification on their Price Adjustment policy and specifically asked if price adjustments also included sale prices on their Annual "Target 2 Day Sale" the day after Thanksgiving. I got a response that said their adjustment policy was 7 days and it included ALL sales held at Target during the year, the 2 Day Sale was NOT excluded. I printed out the email and had it with me should I had any problems, but I just took my receipt in that morning while the doorbuster sales were still in effect and they just manually keyed all the items in as a return and then rebought them and I got the hefty credit back to my credit card. No fuss. I went and pre-bought everything I wanted on Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving.
All of their corporate communication is given incident numbers, so if there is any question they should be able to call their home office and they should be able to find the communication via that incident number. Definite YMMV. |
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
I called my local Target and got a supervisor on the line and they told explicitly that the Two Day BF sale was NOT covered for the price adjustments. Only the Sunday circular sale prices counted.
If you have an e-mail from corporate claiming otherwise, it might help others to post it. |

It wound up being as much (if not more?) of an essay than a review, but: http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/40613...with-the-wind/

Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
I hated GWTW when I first saw it. Maybe as a bit older and now Film Major I can surpass some little nuances I had for it. I do admit..that production on it was insanely amazing.

Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
I can now confirm that the Target regular case version of GWTW is definitely ONLY 1-disc....I went there this morning to check it out, felt the front of the case and you can easily tell that there is no hub on the inside of the front for a second disc to be attached onto...also, if you look on the specs in the box under "video" for the special features, it clearly says "None"....nowhere on the case does it say anything about being a "2-disc" edition (while the DVD version does clearly say it is 2-discs)....also, the weight of the case is the same as other 1 disc releases, not slightly heavier as a 2-disc release is....I can't believe Target it trying to charge $34.99 for a 1-disc version, it is quite a rip off considering you can order the 2-disc version from amazon.uk for under $27 shipped....
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
if it's indeed a one disc version, then i don't feel so bad about getting the UCE from amazon.
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
The 2-disc DVD edition probably doesn't have special features though either. If it's like all the past versions, the film is spread across two discs.
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
Yeah, why's the Target 1-disc blu-ray so much? It retails for an exorbitant $40, and even on sale for $35, it's still quite a rip-off for a bare-bones catalog blu-ray. What gives?
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
Yeah I'd rather get the full on set for $45 than pay that much for the Target one.
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
I'm just glad that Target is making a 1 disk version available at all. It's worth the extra cost to me just to not have to buy another big box of stuff I'll look at once & then have to make room for on the shelf.
|
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
So the only new extras not included on the Four-Disc Collector's Edition I already own are these:
And, of course, the 'MGM: When The Lion Roars' documentary that was previously released both on its own and in the '... Oz' blu-ray. And none of the previously-released or new extras are presented in HD. If this is correct, I may try to get the Target version, particularly since I've already seen the 1939 documentary on TCM. |
Re: Wizard of Oz / Gone with the Wind coming to Blu-ray in the 4th quarter of 2009
can anyone confirm that the UK blu ray has all of the same supplements as the US 1 and if they are in NTSC format? i was too late to stop the shipment of the UCE box, but if i write "REFUSED" on it, it will go back to amazon and i'll get my account credited, correct? i think that if the UK disc has the same content (except for the MGM doc), then i'd rather have that than all of the extra stuff in the box.
