re: A Bug's Life coming in May
Down for both of these. I really like A Bug's Life but Monsters Inc. is my favourite Pixar film, so I'm pretty happy about that!

Yes, with Season One of Star Trek: The Original Series hitting Blu-Ray on April 28th, The Original Motion Picture Collection hitting Blu-Ray on May 12th, along with these two Pixar films and several other titles, my wallet is going to be much lighter!

It's about time the studios started giving us real content instead of the filler releases we've had for the last couple of months.

re: A Bug's Life coming in May
Sorry, but at those prices for catalogue titles it will be a while before I indulge no matter how much I like A Bug's Life (never was much of a fan of Monsters Inc anyway).

I know Cars and Ratatouille have both been ~$20 since release. I seem to recall WALL-E being $20 briefly also (though mostly closer to $25). Anyone recall whether or not WALL-E has been offered at $20? If so, I'll keep my eye out for both of these to at least drop to that price point before buying.

Me also. Never bought many DVD titles at $20 levels but I would both of these (mostly because I sold the DVDs for enough to cut the cost). Not at the nearly ~$30 price point though (think I paid $10-$15 for each on DVD).

PIXAR & Disney are THE reason I picked up a PS3 last fall.

It has, including this week at Best Buy and Amazon. 
Good point. Do the free tickets always work, or do you have to wait until they're no longer considering it a "special engagement" / new release?

From my experience, they usually only work the first few weeks of the movie's release before they expire.

re: A Bug's Life coming in May
Fry's Electronic always has these movies for around $19.99 the Following Friday after they are released. Just wait about 10 days and you can pick it up for about $20. That is what I did with Madagascar 2 and it paid off.

re: A Bug's Life coming in May
you realize you can just pre-order now, and you'll get the benefit of the lowest price if Amazon lowers it, right? if BB or somewhere else has it cheaper, just cancel and go buy there. that's what i'm going to do.

re: A Bug's Life coming in May
This is great news.. not sure if I'll have to wait on them or not yet... Already have Monsters Inc. on DVD.. so it's not quite an imperitive at the moment. However, with the free movie tickets, if they also have a rebate for owners of the DVD, I'll definitely have to snatch them up quick!
I'm a bit surprised Finding Nemo isn't among this bunch being it was originally slated to release at the same time as Wall-E. Maybe Incredibles and Finding Nemo will both drop with Up on Blu? That'll get us set for all of them until Toy Story 3 is out, because you know they'll wait until that to release 1 & 2!
