expecting 'Hamlet' in the mail.

bought 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' since the upcoming 2D/3D combo pack won't retain the commentary track

Re: The last Blu-ray you bought (Round 3)

yea i know the movie sucks but at least there are some decent extras and it's not like i'm NOT going to buy a romero zombie movie. and a lenticular cover to boot (which is why there is a white line across it).

Yikes. Yea, I remember when the Japanese HD-DVD's were fetching high import prices.

I got lucky. A friend of mine noticed one of our favorite DVD/CD/Vinyl Shops had a little section labeled "Used Non-R1/PAL DVD's" and everything they had taken was labeled dirt cheap ($1.95-4.95)

Not that I know of but this is a Canadan release so unless you care about special features you can get it right off Amazon. And for pretty cheap, too.

It seems pretty loaded. There's a director's commentary, making of, selected scenes commentary, and a couple other features. I haven't opened it yet, but it seems well worth the $8 at Best Buy.

Same as the DVD I believe. But its well worth the 7.99 just for the significant sound upgrade. Extras are all in SD, & the commentary is an excellent informative one.

Best Buy ran me dry today - got Anchorman, The Score, Bad Lieutenant, Hard Candy, Open Water/Open Water 2, Dead Calm, Deliverance, Logan's Run, Galaxy Quest, and South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.
