Blu-Ray Deals(HMV-$10 titles,Sigs-007,Camp Rock-$9.99each) Updated 11/27/09

[jaydm]

hey guys, just a question.

I recently got a blue ray and 52" tv.

I notice at my local Wal-Mart all these IMAX blue rays. Penguins, sharks, whatever... there seems to be a ton of them.

Are these worth picking up on a blue ray? Do you get any kind of IMAX experience seeing them at home on a big screen? Or is it just like watching any regular Animal Planet show I could see on TV.
Just wondering if I should take a gamble on one of these or not.

Thanks!


Yes Planet Earth is a MUST. These Imax documentaries are also real good. Most of them are. And its definitely not like watching a show on TV. The picture quality will be amazing. Also depends on your setup. Surroud Sound, type of TV you bought etc etc. But for the most part you will be amazed by the quality. Enjoy!

Methinks i will go to BB and PM them at $26.. so $12.99 - $1.30 = $11.69 * 1.13 = $13.20 .. not bad. But the question is.. do i really need this movie. I'd rather save the money to purchase gladiator and braveheart next week. I might skip state of play since it only had "ok" reviews and not fantastic ones.

Braveheart and Gladiator is gonna be $26.99 at FS./BB.

Local store should have these at $20 cash on release date for me, i rarely go to FS/BB for new releases now unless they have a pricing error *cough* 300 *cough*

On a seperate now i found madmen season 2 for $24.99 at e-outlet.com

http://www.eoutletcanada.com/p-1403-madmen.aspx

I think e-outlet.com is my new sig for series deals.. they also have weeds at a reduced price but not by much. Pushing daisies is also cheap there as well and madmen season 1 too.

BB here i come for a nice PM :) Should have honored that pricing error a while back on madmen S2 for me.. you would have made more money lol

Edit: picked up Madmen S2 for $23.19 + tax .. sweet :)

Also picked up Batman Anthology for $50 cash lol.. this local store is making me broke i swear.

Sig update:

Seven Pounds $ 16.99

Chain Reaction
Alvin and the Chipmunks
Punisher, War Zone

All $12.99

I work by the SIG on Leslie, not sure if e-outlet near woodbine is worth the extra drive or not... but shipping is nuts... over $9 for regular shipping on a single Blu-ray is crazy talk.

May have to pickup Alvin for my 3.5 yr old as the reviews kind of suprised me, its supposed to actually be a good movie - and I'm a big fan of Jason Lee a.k.a Brodie, so I'll prob. enjoy it too.

My suggestion is browse the catalog on e-outlets website and then call the store you are visiting to make sure they have a copy before you drive by. SIG and e-outlet each have their own respective deals that i take advantage of but e-outlet is stepping up more to the plate on deals that i cannot normally get (especially for series boxsets they offer an amazing price... just take a look at madmen S1 or S2 and pushing daisies). Cannot get those prices even with BB pricing error and they can match it too plus 10% difference but YMMV on the matching.

I feel your pain Jay, i've become a bit more selective now when i buy me blu-rays. Im still waiting for an official review for Braveheart and Gladiator.. but i will be surprised if these fall short of anything but "highly recommended" from the reviewers. I might not pick up state of play now with me spending money on these 2 instead and my purchase of hott fuzz and shawn of the dead in 3 weeks.

Ive only watched Gladiator so far, and ill be watching Braveheart tonight or this week. So i cant really answer that question yet. I would give Gladiator a 4.6/5 on PQ and a 4.5/5 on AQ.

I can't believe is everyone talking about SIG's lame $12.99 deals and there's been no mention of the $13.99 goodies on CH Canada... unless that site has fallen out of favour, or it's covered in its own thread I missed. I was waiting for CORALINE and WATCHMEN to turn up for that price, and now they have! :D

In fact most of the $13.99 blu-ray list looks new when you sort by "Increasing Price". Besides the above two titles, I see Passengers, Robin Hood, Shawshank (just a few dollars cheaper than Wal Mart, but still), the original release Casino Royale, and The Wrestler among others. Does anyone know if any of the promotion codes (free shipping above $39, free bonus DVD above $20, etc) are still in effect?

From a lot of comments on AV sites, Braveheart was a very well done transfer. Gladiator seems to have a lot of issues. The extended scenes look great, but everything else is not up to snuff for a premium movie at a premium price.

Some Pre-orders at ChCanada are priced pretty decent too.

$23.99

Star Trek 2009
Wolverine
Monsters vs Aliens
Taking of Pelham 1,2,3
Observe and Report
Dance Flick
Ghost of Girlfriends Past

With Free shipping these movies are real good in price compare to BB/FS for $29.99 and up.

True, but aren't we all spoiled on CHC's $13.99 pricing now? :D Watchmen and Coraline were also going for $23.99 initially -- which was better than anywhere else at the time -- but I held out in hopes they would be added to the list in 4-6 weeks like so many other new titles have. And it actually panned out!

I would not at all be surprised to see Trek and Wolverine follow suit later this year, assuming they keep these promos up (and they're requested by forum members... the CHC folks seem to keep tabs and share info on other sites like HighDefDigest).

Too bad CHC doesn't have any Disney content -- a Pixar movie for $13.99 would be great! Of course, with Disney having bought Marvel today, the next Wolverine flick might be from the House of Mouse. :-0

CHC updates its $13.99 titles every Monday (usually not until the afternoon or early evening, though). Older or less popular titles may stay at that price for an extra week or two, but the new releases almost always go back to their regular price after one week.

Did you actually add the movie to your cart and go to checkout, because Street Fighter should have only been $1.99 shipping. They only charge $5.99 for a single movie is if it's a 3-disc set, which I'm sure Chun Li isn't.

Do they count shipping for per disc or per blu-ray? I did not know it was based on the disc.. that would suck and not make much sense really. Either way, save your cash, do not order that POS :lol:

Ya Zack and Miri is pretty funny. For that price you should get it.

As for Gladiator, i honestly did not notice any parts that would look like a dvd scene. The picture was clear to me with absolutely no grains. I hate grains! lol. I read up a little on the big controversy of the PQ on Gladiator but didnt pay too much attention to them. They were bi*chin about a scene were for a split second the fire arrow disappeared. I dont know if you pay close attention to those very minor details but i hardly noticed anything of the sort. And because of that alot of ppl arent gonna get the blu ray..LOL.

I guess i can understand if ppl own the DVD already but for the people who dont own it, its well worth it. My two cents :D

Ack, seriously?! :confused: I wouldn't think a movie like that even merited a 2-disc special edition. Unless one disc is the blu ray, another a DVD copy, and the third the digital copy -- seems to be a trend with some studios.

I thought Z&M was pretty funny, and I'm not even a fan of those guys.

As for CHC shipping, I believe each movie up to two discs is $1.99 shipping, but a three-disc movie is automatically $5.99. At that point you may as well add any other movies you wanted too, because $5.99 is their flat rate for unlimited (?) discs.

[TT shopper]

I found that Rogers + have added a few new movie to their 2 for $30 Previously Viewed, likely YMMV.

I saw Fast and the Furious, Coraline and Race to Witch Mountain @ their PPV section last night.

If anyone wants to get 10,000 B.C., BBV has it for 12.99, which qualifies to 2 for $16.

The third disc is a Animation Street fighter movie on dvd or something of that sort. and yes third one is digi copy.

I was just curious really.. not critisizing anyones taste of movies. Does not really matter anyways, BB had 0 copies left and did not bother with FS PMing as that is a nightmare always. On a seperate note i did pick up state of play and gladiator to compensate (no braveheart yet >:()

F&F and Coraline for $30 is pretty good imo. Hopefully the Coralines have the 3D glasses inside even though pre-viewed.. although it should not make much diff.

Let me know what you think of Gladiator. You may have a different opinion than i do. Im beginning to hear they are pushing for a re-release of it because of that pq issue. we will have to see.

Coraline wont have the glasses, they never put those in thei previously viewed. Along with the extra discs and slip covers

Well heres a quote from Blu-Ray.com

Today on Blu-ray - September 1st
Posted September 1, 2009 12:19 PM by Josh Dreuth

There is a bit of controversy with one of today's releases, so I'm just going to get this out of the way as quickly as possible to avoid any further distraction. While not a horrible presentation, the Blu-ray release of ‘Gladiator' does not live up to the promise of Paramount's Sapphire Series to “present each cinematic gem in the highest quality.” The studio used a clearly outdated master for this release, a mistake that readers may recall from a few early Blu-ray releases (specifically, the initial release of ‘The Fifth Element'). One can only hope that the studio will recognize that mistake, and offer replacement discs to those who are purchasing the film today (again, similar to how Sony handled their TFE issue).

However flawed, the disc does represent an upgrade from the previous DVD release. The audio quality benefits greatly from the lossless encoding, and viewers will definitely notice increase fidelity and clarity. Even the video represents an upgrade, though not on the scale usually seen on Blu-ray releases. So while you may hesitate to pick up a copy today, you can make a purchase with the knowledge that the Blu-ray release represents the best home video presentation of ‘Gladiator'. Hopefully, Paramount will soon come out with an official statement announcing a trade-in program for owners, but that may take some time as they first have to figure out what went wrong.

Beyond that, we do have some great Blu-ray titles being released today, including a title that does represent what Paramount's new Sapphire Series is all about: ‘Braveheart'. Our review (with screenshots) will be up later, but our good friend Bill Hunt was able to get his hands on a copy and had this to say: “Braveheart has earned a place in my Top Ten favorites list, and so I was very eager to get my hands on the Blu-ray. I'm pleased to say that it doesn't disappoint. In fact, this is one of those Blu-rays that will likely be thrilling you with its near reference A/V quality for a long time. Absolutely don't miss it.”

One can only hope that the studio will recognize that mistake, and offer replacement discs to those who are purchasing the film today (again, similar to how Sony handled their TFE issue).

However flawed, the disc does represent an upgrade from the previous DVD release. The audio quality benefits greatly from the lossless encoding, and viewers will definitely notice increase fidelity and clarity. Even the video represents an upgrade, though not on the scale usually seen on Blu-ray releases. So while you may hesitate to pick up a copy today, you can make a purchase with the knowledge that the Blu-ray release represents the best home video presentation of ‘Gladiator'. Hopefully, Paramount will soon come out with an official statement announcing a trade-in program for owners, but that may take some time as they first have to figure out what went wrong.

Beyond that, we do have some great Blu-ray titles being released today, including a title that does represent what Paramount's new Sapphire Series is all about: ‘Braveheart'. Our review (with screenshots) will be up later, but our good friend Bill Hunt was able to get his hands on a copy and had this to say: “Braveheart has earned a place in my Top Ten favorites list, and so I was very eager to get my hands on the Blu-ray. I'm pleased to say that it doesn't disappoint. In fact, this is one of those Blu-rays that will likely be thrilling you with its near reference A/V quality for a long time. Absolutely don't miss it.”

What i don't get is how they managed to get Braveheart right but not Gladiator *sigh*. What im equally worried about is the trade in program might screw canadians over again if its anything like the trade in program from the POTC fiasco with a specific screen not cut properly.

Im not gonna bother with it too much. But if there is a trade in and it cost nothing then im all over it :lol:

I found that Rogers + have added a few new movie to their 2 for $30 Previously Viewed, likely YMMV.


2 for $30 blu-rays ended at Rogers on August 24, so if you're store is still running it, it's very much YMMV. I'm sure it'll be back in a few weeks but right now, it's done (at Roger's and BBV).

[need2save]

Braveheart is five years older than Gladiator, but as I recall it didn't have any gimmicky -- and poorly done -- CGI like the latter movie had. Maybe that's part of the problem -- bad CGI made worse by a high-definition transfer? Especially if the CGI was rendered in lower resolution for the original master that it sounds like they reused.

The thing I remember about both these movies was that the critics hated them when they came out (early in the year), yet somehow by the end of the year they had done a complete about-face -- enough to win Best Picture the following March! :confused: I think it'll be a while before we see another martyr hero "historical" take the top prize, especially with there being twice as many Best Picture nominees starting next year.

[tuktoyaktuk]

Do you like any of Judd Apatows other movies though or do you in general not like his humour? Just curious :)
Zack and Miri is actually a Kevin Smith movie, and not Apatow. I thought it was hilarious, by the way.

[LaserEnvy]

I heart Kevin Smith so I picked up Zack and Miri at pmall today. Also picked up Chasing Amy (17 bucks) and Enter the Dragon (15)

Review for Braveheart came up.. its a must own from this year. I think alot of sites are holding off on reviewing gladiator because of the controversial PQ..lets hope Forrest Gump does not suffer this fate..

Gosh darnit.. i thought it was Apatow >:(

F&F and Coraline for $30 is pretty good imo. Hopefully the Coralines have the 3D glasses inside even though pre-viewed.. although it should not make much diff.

I asked the CSR at my Rogers +, she gave me 2 packs of 4x paper made 3D glasses, it comes in a small plastic bag, make sure you ask for them.

Coraline wont have the glasses, they never put those in thei previously viewed. Along with the extra discs and slip covers

The Digital copy is not included, so is the slip cover... :(

I was once told that Rental copies will never have the digital copy, that's ok for me, never put any movie to ipod or laptop...

I just saw the review for Braveheart. Cant wait to watch it. It is a definitely a must own.

[blahblehblah]

I just saw the review for Braveheart. Cant wait to watch it. It is a definitely a must own.

For those on the fence with the sapphire releases, the reviews are out. As follows:

- Gladiator: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/movies.php?id=4735&show=review
- Braveheart: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/movies.php?id=1289&show=review and http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/2470/braveheart.html

I watched gladiator last night... the missing arrow was not noticeable when running on normal play speed on my 50" Panasonic Plasma. I have no idea how people could have picked this up unless they really did a slow-mo scene by scene on those specific spots. This is definitely not a deal breaker on this blu-ray. I did find some of the CGI really fake though (beginning scenes with fire on people and on some background) but i kept in mind this movie came out in the year 2000 and this was probably "good" CGI back then. The reviews were picky on how unlifelike some of the scenes are because they were overtly polished and did not have enough "grain". I personally do not like grain (yes, some are warranted at times to bring life to the picture) but im not so sure i would have appreciated those specific scenes pointed out with having grain in it.

Overall, i did not find the video transfer terrible. The audio is amazing (and i do not even have a good audio set yet to take full advantage of what it could offer). Supplements are insane. I would say buy it and if paramount warrants a re-release of the movie to polish things up, buy it again and keep the defective one as a collector item :lol:

Braveheart i have to get. Even though the movie is 5 years older than gladiator, it got a much better transfer... damn u local shop. Gimme braveheart 4 cheap! :lol:

No, as I posted earlier (can't even remember if it was this thread... too many parallel blu ray threads on RFD, lol), I remember the CGI in Gladiator looking pretty bad even when I saw it in the theatre. Mind you, those sort of "wide panoramic ancient civilization" all-CGI shots always seem to look fake, in part because they always apply a colour filter to make it look "cool" (or hide the imperfections, I don't know which).

The Braveheart blu ray doesn't get a perfect mark in any review I've read, but they're consistently more favourable than Gladiator. Maybe because that movie was shot "natural" and had no CGI that I can recall...?

Actually all this talk about the two blu rays is a sore point for me, because my family actually won both movies in separate contests :)... only to be told the distributor had changed their mind about supplying them for the promotions. :mad: Makes it very hard for me to justify buying them now when I was this close to getting them for free!

Just get em lol. If any blu-rays are worth purchasing, these 2 are imo. I completely agree with your comments, Braveheart did get more favorable reviews as no CGI was really involved in it.. gladiator got killed somewhat for the CGI but i think mostly people were just not content with how the video was polished for blu-ray. I swear the extent of criticism scares me sometimes from those videophiles that have too much time to even analyze a split second arrow missing. Either way, here is to hoping i can pick up braveheart today.

As a film I'd be more interested in seeing Gladiator again than Braveheart (I haven't seen either in years), but then the video reviews have me leaning the other way, lol. Let me know how the special features are. When I first started collecting DVDs 10 years ago, I used to watch all the extras first... but now the only time I do that is if there's a decent length, retrospective documentary included. That can only happen with older movies, when everyone knows what legacy they had (or didn't have ;)) and the cast & crew can talk candidly about their experiences. You never get that with those "HBO First Look" things they put on new movies now. I imagine Braveheart and Gladiator must have some pretty decent docs on them... or at least they should!

I have not had the time to go through all the special features (i think the length of the special features along are like somewhere around the 6 hour mark). With that being said, there is ample special features with this disc. Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe have their commentary on the extended version which i read was pretty good. Reviewers said the commentary on the theatrical version was more technical and not that interesting. There are other things as well embedded in the special feature but if you read the review, it should give you a rough jist of what there is and if it is to your liking.

Gladiator is being punished by everyone, not just the videophiles.

Is anyone here a member of CHCanada? That $14 Watchmen is very tempting...

Yeah but the flaming arrow scene cannot be seen even with the naked eye.. i doubt any common viewer would pick up on it. That being said, there are other problems with the transfer, i just don't think its overtly huge. Does it live up to the expectation of a "sapphire series" ... probably not. Is it a disaster? Nope. We shall see in time what paramount wants to do with this.

2 dvds=2 blu rays. I was a member for a brief time. Ordered my two Blu-rays and cancelled. Wasnt impressed with how long the order was. But ya when they say 2 dvds they also mean 2 blu-rays. You do NOT need to buy actual DVDs.

The commitment should only be 2 dvd/blu rays per year. Does not need to be 2 years commitment. I think its easy to buy 2 from chcanada.com really per year... $13.99 titles for some new ones $1.99 shipping per. Only drawback is the time it takes to ship to you which i have to agree with jay is something that needs improving. Otherwise, great deal :D

I don't think it's been a year since my first order so I can't verify this, but I'm pretty sure you won't get "advance credit" towards your membership for buying more than two discs. Otherwise it would be a non-issue for most people here, since anyone who bothers signing up usually buys more than two discs from them anyway (certainly within a 12-month period).

That said, it's not like you'll see a $5 charge on your CC that later gets refunded. I have never seen any additional charges or even any advertising email from CHC, so I'm not even sure if they charge a membership fee at all right now. Could be that the conditions are just there to future-proof themselves if and when they do decide to start charging the fee.

If it's a concern for you, just cancel your account with them before the end of the first year now that you've fulfilled your commitment.

Some good titles in their clearance bin.. PM at BB or FS and get it even cheaper. I don't mind adding Devil wears Prada to my collection at that price and maybe Million dollar Baby but i gotta figure out the price after PM to see if its worth it :)

The used bin section is definitely funny.. labor pains already on sale.. guess the craptastic reviews on that made it worthless. Wanted might be the only good title there.. donnie darko could have been had for like $5 when HMV had the $7 off when trading in DVDs (could have stacked 2 for donnie).

Still not bad though... and still waiting to pick up braveheart :(

Edit: NVM, million dollar baby $9.99 at BB already and Devil wears Prada $19.99. Not much of a savings anywhere sadly

I was browsing other blu-ray forums and it seems that there is a pricing error for Supernatural Season 4 on blu-ray at WM, its priced the same as the DVD. I won't get it still but nonetheless a savings of about $20 or so.

Also Star Trek: Next Gen movies are going for around $53 on amazon.ca. BB has not listed this product yet but i am going to safely assume it will prob be more expensive than amazon.ca.

Did you watch braveheart yet Jay? What can i expect from it? :D

Braveheart was AWESOME. Now i can really tell a difference from Gladiator. A must See and A must have. pick it up already! Lol..

[roby2003]

I'm getting off the fence and will pick up Braveheart today.

Braveheart OOS at FS Heartland and 403/Dundas locations. However, more than 5 copies of Gladiator at FS Heartland.
I guess fans are reading the reviews on both movies.

Either BR not available at Costco as of Sun Sep 6.

Braveheart was AWESOME. Now i can really tell a difference from Gladiator. A must See and A must have. pick it up already! Lol..

I will, part of my plan today but my local store has like no copies still :mad: I am ready to pony up to BB and pay MSRP - $5 with digidollars, we will see what happens there :lol:

Im still debating if i should order Star Trek: Next gen movies for $53 + tax. Jean Luc Picard ftw! :lol:

Actually that Terminator show got canceled a while back -- I think they knew in advance too, so it was able to end with at least some resolution instead of a cliffhanger. I kind of lost interest before the 2nd season but apparently it got pretty good.

Ditto for Pushing Daisies S2, which I happily won on DVD (but not blu-ray :() in a contest a couple of months ago. ABC burned through the last few episodes on several consecutive Saturday nights at 10 PM. Boy did that show have a rushed ending -- the type where the narrator rapidly tells you the happy endings of all the characters in the last three minutes, lol. Blame the writers' strike for the death knell in the ratings; its first season apparently did well, but when they had to cut it short due to the strike and then didn't bring it back that spring, interest plummeted.

Shoot 'Em Up and No Country For Old men were $8.97 at WM a few months ago, so even $12.99 doesn't look that good by comparison (never mind the fact that we're all waiting for SIG to trot out some newer titles in these daily specials).

I wanted to see this series.. i havent watched it but i heard great reviews. Thats why im shocked it got cancelled. Now im contemplating of getting it..

Yeah im contemplating getting the second season now. I might as well get it since i already have the 1st season already. One thing i did notice though was that with any TV shows cancelled, the last season on blu-ray is like sky rocket high to try and recover costs from what i assume was low ratings. Terminator: S2 is priced at like $68 MSRP or something which is ridiculous. Pushing daisies S2 was like $48.. i kept on wondering to myself... WTF :lol:

Sad.. truely sad how they butcher all these TV shows with great prospects. I hope Dollhouse is not next on Fox's hitlist. I watched S1 and does Epitah one give you a complete different light of where this series can go... i can't wait for S2 to take flight really.

Bleh, to hell with Fox titles :) They keep canning all the good TV shows.. so first they strike a deal with HMV.. now Wallmart? Are they really hurting that much for cash? :confused:

On a more positive note i ended up buying Braveheart to see if it lived up to the reviews given. Oh man, it does! PQ, AQ is all amazing.. my girlfriend even enjoyed it. For a movie done like 10+ years ago, this transfer is absolutely amazing and kinda does make gladiator look sub-par

I have the international.. got it a while back from SIG when they have that P-mall opening thing. The movie was too boring for me to pay close attention to the PQ but yes, i believe that PQ is amongst one of the best out there. I am still more impressed by Braveheart.. it reminds me of the good old days when CGI was not present and you had to have 200-300 extras play the part for the army.. that kind of large production, we will rarely ever see again. Also for the picture to turn out that good for a movie 10+ years ago, i tip my hat off to them.

If so, how many copies can one get?

I'm fairly certain SCOP is the other way around:

If it had scanned at 22.xx when it was supposed to be 12.43 (sticker, shelf, website, etc.) then SCOP would apply and you would get it for 2.43 ($10 off), else you get the new price in the system.

And I think the extra $10 off only applies to the first copy.

[danman227460]

Yes. SCOP only works when it scans at a higher price than a lower displayed price. It doesn't work when it scans lower but the sticker states a higher price. Also stickered items are not suppose to count but if you have an improperly trained cashier, they might SCOP it.

Yes, it is correct that you only get the first item scop as its per UPC and since multiple items would have the same UPC, it wouldn't count. Again if you run into an improperly trained cashier, you might be able to get all of the items SCOP.

Well everyones got their own opinion on movies. All about the person's preference. I picked up Falling Down and poltergeist Digibooks at FS. Price matched from BB. Got it for $14.50 each. (cashier was too lazy to calculate..haha)

Review for Falling Down.. 4.5/5

Sweet deal :lol: I always get cashiers who punch up their calculators from their blackberry or iphone and i always find it funny i can do the math faster in my head than them punching in the numbers.

Meh >:( SIG FTL.

Did you get a chance to watch wolverine yet? I was reading from the review that the PQ is pretty good but the movie's CGI is still rendered pretty bad (nothing that can be done anyways since that was how it was in the theatres too). I will probably pick it up later to complete my x-men collection :D

Next week is a killer: Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the dead, Star Trek: Next Gen movies, Terminator: SCC S2. So much i wanna buy, so little funding >:(

Not yet, im pretty busy during the week, i usually save my movie watching for the weekend. And yes, i also had to get it to complete the set Xmen Set. :D . Wait til it goes down in price cuz im sure it will. Im picking up Shaun of the Dead next week along with Superman/Batman Public Enemies. As for October, oh man..too many i want, but there are a few more bd's in my collection i wouldnt mind trading.

[need2save]

Yeah im gonna skip falling down, i saw the reviews, im not that impressed... its a hit and miss movie and for me it might be a miss.

I will skip the soloist as well, ive heard the same thing about that movie but apparently August rush is a better uplifting movie of the same category

Skip them all! :lol: Admittedly I haven't seen The Soloist, but despite all its Oscar buzz I don't think it sounds particularly interesting (I see jaydm agrees!).

Falling Down I did see, many years ago during its theatrical run when I was in high school. It was OK, but I'd have no interest in seeing it again and wouldn't particularly recommend it. It's one of those day-in-the-life stories of someone who's had a nervous breakdown and is saying/acting out the sorts of things many people think but never say/do. OK for '93, but you've probably seen the same type of movie many times since.

August Rush was just schmaltzy, not as eye-rolling as I thought it would be but I wasn't particularly "uplifted" by the end either. I like many sentimental / romantic movies but the tug-your-heartstrings types seldom do it for me, lol.

[danman227460]

Even watching the movie in theaters, you can see some scenes with Wolverine's claws were horrible CGI. Especially that bathroom scene.

Trust me, this is nothing. There are 12 steelbooks coming out of Disney movies so if you like them, you will be digging DEEP. Plus this doesn't include any of new movies they release getting a steelbook treatment

I was really, really impressed with the transfer for Poltergeist and highly recommend the movie. The movie was really good (I hadn't seen it since the 80's and the A/V on the BR was fantastic, esp. for an older movie - all in all one of the best BRs in my collection.

Np, the thread is quite funny to read though as the people there are all planning ways to sneak the purchases past their significant others. It is and it is one of those hobbies you don't want to get into. Some of them have over 120 steelbooks and at an average cost of 30-40, that is A LOT of money.

I will probably pick up the steelbook versions of newer movies coming out as they are cool but I'm not that die hard yet.

I might cave in and get Up on steelbook and maybe 1 or 2 more.. im hoping these will go down in price..but futureshop knows they will sell these at even 40 bux a piece.

I have a few, mostly the FS ones, as they are rare and cool looking. I am going to pick up Up, Transformers 2.

Man, I am waiting for tonight's flyers so I can see what sales they have next week. I am looking for a good price on Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the dead.

HMV is going to be selling shaun of the dead for $19.99 and also hot fuzz.. actually its the only place listed so far to sell both on blu-ray.. best buy and future shop do not list these titles. Amazon.ca also sells both for $19.99 so thats always a fallback in case HMV runs out of stock. You might want to change your order at BBV to another blu-ray.. i hope they did not price gouge you.

As for the addiction, yes i can attest it is one but getting steelbooks at that price is absolutely ridiculous.. how can their significant other not know if they are working a side job to keep it up? :lol: I can't see how they can hide it.. its so shiny and probably take up alot of room from some of the collections listed on that forum. I wish i got the steelbook for TDK and Iron Man before... i don't have one in my collection yet >:(

[ghost80]

^ The steelbook for the Iron Man BD was nice. With the movie's title, having it in steelbook packaging made almost *too* much sense!

Getting Terminator Salvation BD in steelbook would actually make me purchase that film, given the word of mouth I've heard about it.

[Neil]

Here the $8 blurays were absent.

They had a big row of anniversary cardboard display stands with different movie deals including DVD's for $4 and $5, Blu-rays for $10 and $15

But no $8 Blu Rays. There were some $10 titles I believe. A worker told me they didn't have room for all the display stands so he might bring out the other ones in a few days when the existing ones are empty.

[JoeyB]

Beetlejuice BR for $10 is a real sweet deal and

For BR sets? That must be for the reg DVD sets.

Not necessarily -- the Bond BR sets were $29.99 at both FS and BB over Boxing Week last year (with $21 in Cineplex cash for Quantum Of Solace, so it almost paid for itself). And the steelbooks were $9.99 at BB a few months ago. So $34.99 for a boxset now isn't implausible.

this reminds me of my bad time with local walmart during boxing day sale- more than half of stuff in flier not even on floor.talked to sales rep says sold out comeback during week alot of b.s., stuff never out on floor

FS has the same movies, but at $10. A decent alternative, if you're in the market for these at $10 or less and can't find them at WM anywhere.

[mabba18]

Hit both Orleans and Trainyards Walmarts this afternoon, and both had a good amount of $8, $10, and $12 discs. I'd say that I saw almost every title mentioned at one or the other. I'd also say that most of the $8 titles were $5 HD-DVDs.

Also, Orleans had a fair selection of ~$14-19 titles including 2 copies of The Shawshank Redemption for $16.xx. One thing I also came across was the X-Men Trilogy for $49.xx. It was tempting, but I left it not know how good a deal it was. Checking now, Amazon.com, and Walmart.com have it at $48US, so I may grab it. Of course I should be saving my money for those Disney Steelbooks.

[ExDss]

Niagara Falls and Welland WM had most of the $8 Blu-Ray titles in the flyer, yesterday morning around 11am. They had some not listed in the original ad:

I agree in that i am not a big fan of waiting.. especially 2 weeks which seems to be the norm from them but if shipping is free, i won't mind the wait. I mean, price is great, selections are good and refreshed weekly but 2 weeks wait and having to pay is >:(

Yup, 3 movies I ordered last week came in today. Swordfish for 4.99, Underworld: Evolution for 7.99 and Hancock for 8.99.
I checked all of them and put them in my PS3 slim to see if they were legit and working, and yeah they were lol.

The items I got were sealed except for swordfish which was used. But it still looks like it hasnt been touch.

Great site, think Im going to buy more from them for now on. Plus they have texas chainsaw massacre for pre order which releases on the 29th for only 12.99 ;)
Great price if you ask me since the pre order price on amazons going for 21.49.

Ya i pretty much know some movie title's price by memory and that guys prices are way lower. Even when you factor in shipping, its still beats out alot of retail prices. I got excited when i saw the 'steelbook' link, i thought he had steelbooks for sale for cheap too. lol..too good to be true.

Awesome find and thanks for sharing..i might order one to try it out.

[danman227460]

I believe its just an empty case where you can place your movie into when it ships. In the states, they had a recent promotion for Snow White. You buy the steelbook as a pre order.

[thetano]

Are you guys interested in another free shipping offer? I was thinking of posting another one for 3 days - last of of the Sept titles and first 2 days of the October titles. :?:

Shipping can make or break a deal... Free shipping definitely makes a deal!

I have about 10 titles in my cart waiting for this :)

[jaydm]

if anyone is interested, i think i saw a group buy for the 12-weeks of Disney steelbooks at Blu-ray.com in the trades forum. Didnt really read it and im not sure how it works..

[danman227460]

The group buy was mostly for people in the states who wants them. Our ever favourite AccordTR is probably one of them setting it up. He was part of the Dark Knight steelbook fiasco and got his butt chewed off in RFD.

The group buy is mostly to take orders for people in the states who don't have access to Canadian contacts, someone heads to FS and empties the shelves to fill the orders.

It isn't really ment for people in Canada as anyone who wakes up early enough, pre orders etc can easily get their hands on one. That is to say if they haven't been emptied by people filling US orders.

Its just the nature of the game as steelbooks are coveted by some Americans and since they are Canada exclusive, its hard to find them.

For me, nothing interests me as I would be double dipping for all the steelbooks and I would rather spend my money on new releases.

Ahhh, ok.. thanks for clearing that up. Good thing i didnt put my name for any of them.. :lol:.. i wanted to get UP..i thought it was cheaper for the group buy or something. Thanks..

[danman227460]

No, FS rarely does any group rate discount on media items. Its usually for big ticket items do a group buy makes sense. Well maybe if we went to FS ourselves and demanded 1000 steelbooks, they might give us a group rate discount :D

Saw lots of Universal BD's onsale at Walmart today (most can be found used at Roger's as part of 2 for $30 but if you want them new, not bad) for $19.99.


They had the following titles: State of Play, Duplicity, Coraline, Fast & Furious, 17 Again, He's Just Not That Into You, The Last House on the Left, Fighting.

[ReDmAn]

do you guys think that physical media will go the way of 8 track tapes or lazer discs?

any movie in HD can be found on the net. in the states they have netflix which probably/hopefully will come to canada. Less clutter as everything is stored on one device and since everybody wants to go green these days it's also less waste and probably cheaper than manufacturing discs as well

most of you guys are collectors but do you buy the movies for the box or because want to watch the movie? so if you can get the movie with the same picture quality but without the box and cheaper would you still get it?

Yeah i pre-ordered it... the whole steelbook thing was tempting and i already have T1.. might as well get T2 in style... i took a look at the pictures.. steelbook cover looks nice and like i said worse case scenario, if i don't like it, i will sell it to someone in the US or another country and make a profit.

You are right, most people here are collectors. And for that and many other reasons, physical media will not be obselete,atleast not in the next 20 years or so. Simply upgraded to higher definitions and what not. Its a hobby for alot of people, and the clutter you speak of is their hobby.

Where did u get T1 and T2 steelbooks?

[danman227460]

No. Here is the main reason. The current internet infrastructure can not handle the blu ray format, they can handle movies in a lower resolution, less quality sound but nothing as close to blu ray. Right now, the speeds, price and limits all throttle the needed progress for digital downloads to succeed.

Believe it or not but DSL or high speed isn't everywhere in Canada, some rural parts do not have access to this. Also most people can not afford the higher speeds to accommodate the media.

So until the internet is upgraded, affordable and everywhere, digital downloads are in a niche market. They serve the people who have good internet well but not good for people with crappy service.

Also some people still prefer having a physical item where they can show off to their friends their collection.

Are we talking about Transformers or Terminator? Its confusing. T2 came from Japan and some other country. Quite expensive as there is currently a new one going to be released and its already 100 CDN.

Agreed. I'm lucky enough to have an ISP that offers 20 Megabits/second bandwidth for a ridiculous price (~25 bucks/month), but other than Novus, I think no other major provider in Canada provides this type of service for the price I'm paying. Sure, you can find HD video on the web, but a typical movie takes several gigs of space and is not always easy to get. Once you go hi-def, you don't go back. I would glady pay $10 for a Blu-Ray disc than spend time (and my download limit) trying to find a copy on the web.

[blahblehblah]

Lol, this is what i get when i become lazy and try to abbreviate everything and not explain things properly. Yes, i meant Transformers 1 and Transformers 2 not Terminator. I meant to say i already have transformers 1 (non-steelbook), so no sense not getting Transformers 2 and if im getting it, might as well make it a steelbook. I mean, it kinda makes sense.. transformers.. metal.. steelbook.. kinda like ironman + steelbook.

Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are $19.99 at hmv. Bestbuy/FS does not carry this title on blu-ray.. i have no clue why but its probably because they prob feel its not worth their time or not profitable for them.. who knows.

I buy/collect blu-rays to experience movies i like in high-definition and try to get back the "movie-feel" in the 4 walls of my house vs what i got when i went to the theatres then. I am not saying my living room can replace a theatre but with blu-ray and the audio it provides, i am very impressed with the results. I also have limited urges now to venture to the theatres due to blu-ray technology, so in essence i think im getting more bang for the buck so to speak when i purchase blu-rays. The cost of 1 is about the same or sometimes less than what i pay for me and my GF to go to the theatres and at the end of it, i also have a BD disc to hang onto which i can resell for at least half the value i paid for. Its kind of a win-win for me in some ways.. the downside is having to wait 3-6 months down the road for the release.

Agreed..Most people do not have the time to download movies like that especially when they are huge and ofcourse you will pay extra when you have dl limit. And like i said, for collectors, physical media is a must have.

the speed of internet is constantly improving and eventually will get cheaper. remember when dial up first came to the scene it was pricy as a mofo or even cable internet. as technology advances older technology will get cheaper and i'm sure would be sufficent to stream HD quality movies to homes. i guess if they keep making it people will continue to purchase it. that's until new media comes along then the whole cycle starts over again

[jaydm]

exactly..there will always be the certain population who will want to purchase dvd or blu ray or cds or whatever its called in the future. And once a new format is laid out, you are right..the whole cycle starts again....that is why physical media will not be obselete any time soon.

You mean 2 years and 3 months time... it reminds me of Y2K and all the other end of the world predictions we have seen. Its nothing more than just buzz to hype up the movie really and send the public into a frenzy that we are all gonna die.. buy up food/water/etc and stock up and give the supermarkets and the big WM more cash upfront.

For all i know i am gonna be sitting in front of my TV watching blu-rays and playing games and still going to work in 2012 :lol:

most of you guys are collectors but do you buy the movies for the box or because want to watch the movie? so if you can get the movie with the same picture quality but without the box and cheaper would you still get it?

I think currently movies and video games are in limbo states. There is now the full option of buying the physical product or downloading the product. Music was like this for a while, but it was only a matter of time before music downloads took off. That being said, there is still a sizeable market for physical CD's. For movies and video games, I think this process will be even longer. Movies have more components than music which makes the right product/experience more difficult to deliver (esp. with movie studios and lawmakers).

I prefer to have a product that sits on my hard drive due to clutter and convenience. I like the option of scrolling through movies and seeing them all there, alphabetical order, ready for a quick selection. For TV shows like the Simpsons or Friends, I don't think you can beat a shuffle option (I don't want to have to choose a season of the Simpsons to watch, then put the DVD in, and then choose the episode- I'm done eating by then!)

That being said, I know that when I buy a Blu-Ray now, the quality will most likely not improve noticeably for another 5-10 years (unless there is a re-release of, say, Gladiator...) and eventually we'll be able to rip them. I don't think the quality will improve because 1080p TV's are still only being adopted and our move to downloaded products always results in inferior quality (CD's vs Mp3's; Blu-Rays vs compressed 720p).

[danman227460]

HA. Look around. We live in Ontario ran by a bunch of backward technology impaired politicians and greedy corporate heads.

What does rogers charge you for a under 10 MB/S speed with 60 GB limit? You do realize if they ever stream blu ray type movies, you would hit 60 GB in like 2-3 movies.

I'm sorry but Canada is so backwards in terms of technology, we are behind even USA in terms of internet.

Until they start offering decent options not run by Rogers or Bell, we are all screwed and streaming media is not in our future for another 10 years. Even then though, most countries would be 20 years ahead of us.

I digress, I just hate how technologically impaired Canada is in every regard. Getting taken for internet, cell phones and everything else.

Hmm.. just doing the math.. each movie is $19.99 at HMV so im assuming this promo applies to if you buy something over $20, you can get both movies each at $12.99 so a savings of $7 per movie ($14 total) which means you are only paying around $6 more for the $20+ movie title? I found the promo in their weekly flyer... gotta go back now and do this.. feel ripped off paying full price for both. And also, no in-store stock for Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead for BB, i am pretty sure FS and BB are not stocking up these 2 titles. You can try though

i guess the mayans created thier calender to end in 2012 just so they can create hype for this 2012 movie. those smart mofos

What i meant was all this talk about 2012 is nothing more than hyping the movie itself and causing panic in the world. Most people only became aware of this from the news of the movie anyways.

[danman227460]

I saw them at my local BB. 24.99 each. I could have PM'ed. What you do though is just go in and buy something that puts it above 20 so you get both movies for cheaper. Find a poster or something. So you end up paying 19.99 (one movie) + cost of a small item + 12.99 (other movie) for about 40 or less which is not bad.

I didn't have time to fight with FS on the PM. They always find a reason, NOT to PM.

Thanks again.

I know, tell bout it. FS has the reputation of being tight when it comes to pming. Surprisingly this time around i did it with no questions asked. But its all the same, you only save a few bux here and there..nonetheless a great deal for the digibooks.

I've seen an awful lot of movies in my life

That piece of crap and signs with Mel Gibson
are vying for the top position at WORST EVER!!! :evil:

I think Wing Commander (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0131646/) was the worst I ever saw... we were totally MST2Ked it the whole time and had the whole theatre on our side, and even that got so boring I actually considered leaving halfway through... horrible movie.

Now that we're in the 'worse movie' subject..i think Lady in the Water does it for me..then Hulk, the first one. i couldnt stand it in the theatre..

[blahblehblah]

I saw them at my local BB. 24.99 each. I could have PM'ed. What you do though is just go in and buy something that puts it above 20 so you get both movies for cheaper. Find a poster or something. So you end up paying 19.99 (one movie) + cost of a small item + 12.99 (other movie) for about 40 or less which is not bad.

I think you have to actually buy an item over $20 for the $12.99 per movie to kick in. I will ask tomorrow when i bring back the discs and just look for a BD that is like barely above $20.

I didn't have time to fight with FS on the PM. They always find a reason, NOT to PM.

Thanks again.

I do not bother now with PMing as FS.. its a nightmare and at the end of it you feel like crap for just saving a couple of bucks. I always go to BB, less hassle, better customer service... kind of wierd when you think about it that both are owned by the same.

Now that we're in the 'worse movie' subject..i think Lady in the Water does it for me..then Hulk, the first one. i couldnt stand it in the theatre..

Man.. you guys did not see "Push" in theatres then... i swear i have never fallen asleep in the theatre and this one put me to sleep. Aweful story, aweful acting... actually makes DB: Evolution and SF: Chun Li look pretty good.... :confused:

[danman227460]

The blade series is barely above 20. I picked up Blade 2. They have some 2 for 40 deal movies, and those should fall under the barely above 20 movie.

[Dan325ci]

Not sure how many people here check the Buy and Sell Forums here but i just bought 8 Sealed Blu-rays for $10 bux each from DJXP.

I got Sleeping Beauty 2 disc Platinum Edition
A River Runs through It Digibook
Speed Racer 3 disc edition
Narnia 2 disc edition
Confession of a Shopaholic 2 disc edition
Friday the 13th Killer Cut 2 disc edition
Bride Wars 3 disc edition
Enchanted

I know its a couple of chick flicks, but keeps the gf happy :cheesygri and compared to over $30+ on most of these titles at bb/fs.

All of them are Factory Sealed with their respective Slip Covers. . I think he is just selling titles from his personal collection. Great guy to deal with too.
He has alot more titles for $10 Brand new!! Check his post.

http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=574534

I doubt he is selling them from his personal collection...i mean he has a "store".

Anyways, a bit off topic...i've seen some people advertising blu rays for pretty cheap on Craigslist only to find out that they are actually copies (very good quality copies that most people wouldnt be able to tell) What gave it away was when they said that their Disney movies such as Pinnochio and Sleeping Beauty were "One Disc"...and we know Disney never made those versions. Also, the seller would always say "come by have a look, you will be impressed with them". Thats a dead giveaway...no need to say that when they are "brand new and sealed", right?

Anyways, proceed with caution when purchasing from places you're not too familiar with. Obviously Best Buy and Futureshop will have real legit ones....look for legitimate factory sealed stickers on the packaging...if its suppose to come with a digital disc make sure you get it....but, always remember, if a deal is too good to be true, it probably is.

You can pick up the same thing in China for $5 a piece. :)

Ive met the guy and he has a store but he does not sell blu rays at his store. He sells hands free products for phones and Video game stuff. And no store has the right of mind will ever sell titles like Sleeping Beauty Factory Sealed for $10. Ive bought many blu rays from him and i can vouch for him.
Hes got almost 200 positive feedbacks. And he is selling from his personal collection. On that note, i just picked up Gladiator from him for my friend.

Ive met a guy who sells bootlegs and i was not impressed when i met up with him. I did not know he was selling bootlegs until i saw them. There are alot of ways to know if its bootlegs. Yes, one of them is if its only one disc, and its suppose to come with two, then chances are its a fake. If you know certain movies comes with digicopy and the person selling doesnt have them then they are fake. Stay away from those people, i think they should all be reported.

You're right, i only look for sealed products now with the factory seal if i was to buy it off someone.

[PR0BLEMZ]

How about at Blockbuster. I think they ripped me off :O
I bought transporter 3 for 8 dollars and it was the special edition. The disc said DISC 1..then I was like wheres Disc 2 ? It didnt come with a Disc 2. I'll probably head back tmmrw to see if they can give me my 2nd Disc lols.

[danman227460]

Did you buy it used? If you did, they never include the 2nd disc especially if it's a digital copy as its against store policy and I think law for them to sell the digital copy. Sometimes you get lucky and pick up a copy someone sold to blockbuster and for some reason, they are allowed to sell them.

I hear workers throw away the digital copy when preparing the movies for rental.

Anyways, Shaun of the Dead/Hot Fuzz is 19.99 at my local FS.

Her name is Patsy Kensit. She has only done TV shows (I think in Europe as I haven't heard of these shows) since then.

I used to the scramble channel thing on my old C-Band Satellite when I was in Grade 7-8. I saw Lethal Weapon 2 when I was about 4 or 5 and I remember my Dad telling me to cover my eyes when that scene came on...that didn't work too well hahaha. And I think I watched Under Siege just after that and the same thing happened with the cake chick. I think after that my Dad gave up on telling me to cover my eyes. :cheesygri

I mentioned this in a previous post, but the 401/Winston Churchill location always has organized sales racks in the aisle by electronics. The anniversary BDs were mixed in with the DVDs, but they had most of the $10 ones on the Tues b4 the anniversary sale pt 2 started on the Fri.

Might be why u didn't see any of the $10 by the time pt 2 officially started? Stay away from the South Common location though, since it's smaller it NEVER has all of the DVD displays out and the clerks will tell you they didn't even get them in!

[danman227460]

Nope. You have to be quick in high traffic stores as most people visit those first and clear the shelves. I went to the location at Heartland on Friday, the day the Anni. sale started, and it was already picked clean except for a few titles no one wanted. I found that heading to far off locations work best as not too many people visit those so your chance of getting good ones are the best.

It sucks as it seems to me that all the local WM are either downsizing, forgetting to stock up or just don't care about BD anymore. I haven't found a good sizable stock of BDs in a while.

They removed that deal which sucks as the lower price means easier to pick up three but I assume once they lowered the price, they can't loose out on shipping.

So how do we get free shipping at SIG? I have 3 blurays in my cart but the only option for free is if I pick it up in store.

Am I missing something here?

Not bad, getting better. If i didnt have Batman already i wouldve gotten it.

And yes, seems like the free shipping with 3 or more titles is now done. Makes sense if they are dropping the prices under 10 bux.

Good price for batman.. shame that i have it. Easy solution for the shipping, just PM this at BB or FS and get it for even cheaper hehe :cheesygri

Im still looking for a copy of Terminator: SCC Season 2 for cheap.. $70 + tax is just ridiculous imo.

Shaun of the dead is really funny imo.. good PQ and AQ.. if you got it last week for $12.99 + tax at HMV by buying $20+ on one item, the deal is even sweeter.

watched it a few days ago...movie is hilarious. Looks like the new movie Zombieland is kind of like it. Might be a blind buy for me when it comes out on blu. for the right price..lol.

Ever check blu-ray.com in the trades forum? i think i saw ppl posting up terminator season 2 for trades and or purchase..definitely alot cheaper than 70 bux.

I will check it out but i think they are mostly in the US.. not sure if they have a seperate canadian BST forum only.

I watched the trailer of zomebieland on TV like 2 days ago.. what irked me was they had some scenes that the CGI was done horribly (like it was done 6 years ago). I will wait for reviews to come out to be the judge of the movie and see if it warrants a blu-ray release. I just read the review on Year One and im now on the fence about buying it. I like the cast but the movie is not as funny as people had hoped it would be though.. might be a disappointment for me but the PQ supposedly is excellent... >:(

They have a few guys there from canada, ive dealt with a couple of them already. traded some movies for a steelbook.

Im getting year one in a few days, i traded some movies for it. Now im running out of movies to trade..lol..most of my movies now i wanna keep.

[chaingunsofdoom]

Some great prices right now at HMV - got Labyrinth/Dark Crystal blu-ray for $22.99 each($5 cheaper than Best Buy, $9 less than FS)

These 2 BRs were both $19.83 at WM last night.

I still can't believe you have that many movies to trade in lol. For the most part i only buy movies i want in my collection now (i made errors in the past of buying crap movies i don't want.. not anymore.. hopefully! :cheesygri ) I will check it out for a bit and see what i can dig up.. maybe i gotta rummage through my pile and see what i can part with.. all these blu-rays to buy and limited cash.. yes LOTR trilogy on blu-ray i am looking at you!

Yup i DID have that many movies to trade. Earlier in the year (when i got my bd player) i also made that mistake of buying movies left to right just cause they were cheap. Now im getting rid of ALL those movies..lol. Well ofcourse i kept a few i wanted in my collection. So now im in the same boat as you. Whatever i like is what ill get.

And oh ya, you did hear LOTR got delayed right. Out in 2010 now.

[ur bud-dee]

Just picked up Batman Begins from SigElectronics for $9.99.. but for some reason it feels a little "sketchy". Cover is in English and French.. .which is fine to me.. but when I play it on my PS3, quality is great (although I only have a 720p tv, so can't tell if it goes up to 1080p)... but I noticed that there is no "root" menu... is it suppose to be like that for this movie?? As all the extra features and stuff.. but just doesn't seem complete to me. There are no previews and stuff. I pop the disc in and it plays the movie right away. and when i stop, it takes me out to the PS3's XMB.

I also noticed that the casing is different from my other ones. On the case that says "Blu-ray", it seems to be like a sticker.. whereas the others one that I have (they are engraved in the case).

Did I get a "boot-leg"... haha??

Please help!

Thanks.

Hey, well even though i kind of promote SIGelectronics here i have never bought a single blu-ray from them at all. So i wouldnt know. I price matched from sig to bb/fs before though.

Ok couple of ways you can tell.

Is it FACTORY SEALED- White sticker on top and/or bottom with the title?

That 'Blu-ray' sticker that you are referring to should NOT be there. Is the blu-ray case kind of boxy on the edges rather than round?

Also i do notice some of movies that are retail bought, goes straight into the movie. Try hitting the 'disc menu' button on ur remote. should take u to a menu. I will take a look at my copy tonight and let you know what you should expect. I bought mine from Best buy long time ago.

Let us know, if this is the case and sig is selling bootlegs i will immediately stop posting for them. I will never support piracy.

pics would be great too

Thanks, haven't opened them yet so I'll return them and save the $6 from Walmart.

[ur bud-dee]

thanks for the help jaydm.

ya..i tried 'disc menu' and it says: "This option is not available" :(

The case is round and not boxy. Regarding the blu-ray disc label on the casing.. i just noticed that my Kung Fu Panada one is like that too... not engraved in the case (and I know this version is legit because it bought it on release date @ BB). Maybe the older blu-rays have the label engraved on the case whereas the newer one's don't. *shrugs.

I hope to hear the good word from you soon!

Cheers!

P.S. I too hope Sig is legit because ever since they opened a store in PMall, they are ALOT closer for me now. I too like their deals sometimes.

Interesting that there's this topic going on about SIG's legitmacy. I opened up Batman Begins, and noticed that the inside of the cover is completely white. I know that most other Blu Rays usually have some kind of pattern/design on the back. Can anyone who's bought Batman Begins elsewhere confirm this?

what do you mean by inside cover?? are you talking about the left-hand side where normally a booklet or ad goes?? Because mine was empty; just got the disc inside.

Np..Ok i just popped it in and yes it does go straight to the movie. Pressed Disc Menu and doesnt have a menu either.

I see what you're talking about with the 'sticker' label. lol. I thought you actually meant an actual sticker..lol. Alot of blu-ray cases are like that.

Ok so we can make the conclusion that its NOT bootleg. Big store like Sigs should know better anyways.

Alot of blu-ray covers are like this. Mine is exact same. Again i bought mine in best buy.

Thanks jaydm for the clarification. So the blu-ray's are legit. Sorry for the scare everyone. :cheesygri

Now I only wish they had given me just the english version, rather than English & French version printing on the label. Oh wells... $10 bucks.. can't go wrong there for a blu-ray!!! Happy camper!!!

Now all I have to do is wait for the deal for Dark Knight. :D

Hey no problem at all. Ive seen them in the chinese malls already. they look legit but the number one thing to look for is the Factory White seal on the top and or bottom and or side.

Anyways, good luck with the hunt and always share the deals :D

surprised FS didn't give you a hard time price matching!

i went in the other day to price match Weeds season 1 and 3 on blu ray. At first, I showed the girl at the cash my receipt from Wal-Mart for $12 for each of the blu rays. So she was just going to PM the $12. I had to tell them "i thought you beat competitors price by 10%?!?!" So she calculates the difference and puts in the new price. I'm about to pay but then the debit card and Credit card system goes down. After 30 mins it took them to come up with a solution to process all the customers who were paying by CC or debit, they gave me the run around that they PM "advertised" prices not "promo" prices like the anniversary sale that wal-mart is currently having.



I don't get why the associates give you a hard time to PM when they have that policy up on a huge sign on the wall. Total lack of integrity FS has to it's customers.

FYI, This was at the Trinity Commons FS....

As someone mentioned, that's par for the course for this title - in fact, WARNER hasn't had any double sided covers that I know of, so they're always just white inside.

Michael Clayton was shot to look intentionally grainy, but the blu-ray is a top notch presentation given the source material (it won't look any better) and the movie is fantastic, well worth $10.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but...

The Rogers Video 2 for $30 BluRay promotion ends October 5th.

The October flyer shows a new promo starting October 6th. Buy two previously viewed movies and add a third for $1. This applies to both DVDs and BluRays. Taking the most expensive PV BD pricing ($21.99) it ends up being essentially the same per disc price as the $30 promo, just that you are required to buy one more disc.

[mdc3000]

^That's actually perfect for me to hear - Once they pull some Crank 2 and Wolverine, there will be 3 titles I want to get and probably a few weeks away until there is anything else I'd be interested in - so a buy 3 deal ain't too shabby.... quickly though, when Roger's says a promo ENDS on October 5th, is it still valid on the 5th or is it already over?

[Monsterhdmi]

checkout torontomediadvd.com. came across their site while browsing on amazon.ca. they have very limited collection but they have kungfu panda for around $16 brand new. the store is on jarvis st. so you can save shipping if you are in downtown.

Question going OT a bit but what does everyone here use as their blu-ray player. I know im jipping myself using an old PS3 phat 60 gig as i don't get the lossless audio and wondering if i should pony up getting the PS3 slim to get lossless audio or actually settle for a blu-ray player specifically? I could prob end up getting the PS3 slim for close to free with the EB promo and my edge credit.. thoughts?

Note: Don't have a good sound system yet but this christmas i expect to be getting one.

[jaydm]

Im using a Samsung BDP-1500. Probably one of the first line Blu-ray players not sure). Its frustratingly pretty slow. lol. Kinda glad you brought up this topic as i am also looking to get another blu-ray player. I was also thinking of getting the new ps3 slims. But also thinking if i should just get another standalone player. Anyone with a PS3 slim thats using theirs as a bd player? Or suggestions for blah and i for which player to get..

i was also looking to get a sound system on boxing day! lol.. my samsung lcd does not cut it anymore.

All PS3s have the ability to decode lossless audio; you just need a receiver that is capable of accepting a lossless audio signal via an HDMI connection. The only thing that a PS3 slim does that the other models don't is that it can send a lossless audio signal via Bitstream. The only difference that Bitstream makes is that your receiver can decode the lossless audio codec instead of the PS3 and display "Dolby TruHD," "DTS MA HD," etc. You still need a HDMI-capable receiver, of course.

I have the Sony BDP-S350 and its really good, but doesn't decode DTS-HD, but my reciever downmixes it to plain DTS. I am considering whether to upgrade my esxisting player and am considering either the BDP-S560 or a PS3 slim.

The only difference that Bitstream makes is that your receiver can decode the lossless audio codec instead of the PS3 and display "Dolby TruHD," "DTS MA HD," etc. You still need a HDMI-capable receiver, of course.

Thanks for this info!

I have the Sony BDP-S350 and its really good, but doesn't decode DTS-HD, but my reciever downmixes it to plain DTS. I am considering whether to upgrade my esxisting player and am considering either the BDP-S560 or a PS3 slim.

BTW, SIG's Daily killer looks OK today:
Amityville Horror
WAR
Harry Potter 1

9.99 each.

Ooops, didnt see u posted it already..

not bad i guess.


Also if anyone comes across some titles from Rogers new promotion (buy 2 get the 3rd for $1) please share! thanks!

[blahblehblah]

Im using a Samsung BDP-1500. Probably one of the first line Blu-ray players not sure). Its frustratingly pretty slow. lol. Kinda glad you brought up this topic as i am also looking to get another blu-ray player. I was also thinking of getting the new ps3 slims. But also thinking if i should just get another standalone player. Anyone with a PS3 slim thats using theirs as a bd player? Or suggestions for blah and i for which player to get..

i was also looking to get a sound system on boxing day! lol.. my samsung lcd does not cut it anymore.

Well im keeping my eyes peeled on good deals.. i might visit some chinese local stores and see what their audio sets are going for (yeah i know how shady this sounds lol). I'll let you know what i come across but i do not expect any super hot sales until we are getting close to boxing day for sure. Im looking to get a wireless 7.1 system and have them install it in my room.. anyone got suggestions on what brand/model i should be eyeing out for if im still using my phat PS3?

So, if im understanding this right, phat PS3 = receiver does all the work, Slim PS3 = Slim doing the decode. So if i keep my phat, then all i need is a good receiver that can accept the signal via HDMI. Any suggestions? I would logically assume if i get a decent/good receiver, it will have this function right?

I swear once i get my audio system up i will need to re-watch my whole collection again... i must have been so deprived using built in speakers on my plasma TV >:(

I probably wasn't clear as I should have been, but you've got it reversed:

PS3 Phat - PS3 decodes and sends it to receiver as Linear PCM (i.e. uncompressed audio)

PS3 Slim - PS3 can send the audio to the receiver as LPCM, or it can send the audio via Bitstream and let the receiver decode the audio (which means the receiver will display Dolby True-HD, DTS-HD, etc.)

Most mid-range receivers ($500 range) should be able to decode lossless audio codecs on their own. You just have to watch out for the cheaper receivers ($300 or less) which may feature HDMI inputs, but will only be capable of passing through video signals. As a reference, my current receiver (Yamaha HTR-6140) does not have on-board lossless audio decoders, but it can accept an LPCM audio signal which is perfect when used with a PS3.

there's always a debate whether or not you can hear the difference between DTS and DTS-HD, or any lossless versus lossy soundtrack. at the end of the day, i think geeks just like to know they're getting the best of what they can from their equipment, even if there isn't a tangible difference. speaking from experience, i know i could barely hear a difference between DTS and DTS-HD, but at the same time, not every soundtrack is created equally, and the default DD 5.1 audio can sometimes sound like crap compared to the lossless Dolby TrueHD or Lossless PCM track (e.g. Casino Royale regular edition). this is disc-specific imo.

i've got the HTR-6140 as well, and just a side note, i've noticed that when the PS3 slim is connected to it and playing a movie, i don't get those hideous pop/cracking sounds from my speakers when the video signal flashes in and out between scenes in the beginning of playback, unlike the fat PS3.

too bad i don't have the slim permanently connected to my home theater.

So what would be the overall consensus for us looking at upgrading? Keep the phat PS3 or go with a PS3 Slim? Any receivers/brands/speakers i should be looking for a price dump on? :cheesygri This is gonna be a purchase i am gonna be sticking with for the next 5-10 years so i wanna make sure its good and i have learnt from RFD, more expensive does not equal to better which is why i ask :)

Demo had me sold.. pvp and co-op and what i assume will be a great single player mode makes this game rock. The MP portion of it is rather simplistic though in some way but i think there are some abilities that are not revealed yet in the demo either so i could be making an assumption too soon. I have it pre-ordered anyways but won't be here to pick it up and play 1st day of release (vacation abroad). So many good games and blu-rays coming out, so little cash and time.

Whats that? I was thinking of getting Tetris or something. ok ok dont kick me all at once..:D

But really im not a big gamer, my nephews will probably benefit from the gaming part more than me...i will just benefit from the blu-ray player.

I was gonna go with a standalone player in the same price range but decided to go with the PS3 slim instead so my nephews, nieces can play with it too.

Tetris is the bomb! *kicks jay*

Well if you want a pretty decent deal, refer to the PS3 slim + GH3 kit for $299.99 + tax. You can lower the price if you can find 4 games for $8+ TIV and get the package for $199.99 + tax.

Bang on. When I finally took the plunge and upgraded my equipment so that I could experience the latest audio codecs, I was expecting a huge difference. However, with the limited material I have sampled so far, my experience has been somewhat underwhelming. I have a reference-quality concert Blu-Ray (Chris Botti - Live) and the difference between the lossless PCM soundtrack and the lossy Dolby Digital soundtrack is very subtle (and perhaps, I could just be under a placebo.) Overall, the lossless soundtracks do sound better, but the differences are noticeable only to a critical set of ears.

Mind you, standard DTS is already quite good; definitely head and shoulders above your run-of-the-mill standard Dolby 5.1 soundtrack.

So what would be the overall consensus for us looking at upgrading? Keep the phat PS3 or go with a PS3 Slim? Any receivers/brands/speakers i should be looking for a price dump on?

I would just keep your PS3 Phat and spend that money on your home theatre set-up. You kinda missed out the summer liquidation period when FS/BB were dumping last year's models, so I suppose your best bet would be to wait until January to pick up a deal on a receiver/speaker set. In terms of receivers, Yamaha, Pioneer, and Onkyo (just watch for overheating issues with the latter) offer decent value and performance. For speakers, you can usual find deals on Polk Audio or Energy. Just stay away from Bose.

[prb54]

I just got the Snow White DVD/Blu-Ray combo at the Calgary Strathcona Rexall Drugs. (They are just next to the checkout.) Only $24.99 and they accepted the $10 off coupon, although they charged me sales tax on the $24.99 and not the $14.99. Still a very good deal -- $16.24 all in. By the way, the discs are in a DVD size box, not Blu-Ray size.

anyone have a link to this coupon?

[danman227460]

The coupon doesn't actually exist. You have to "own" the old VHS/DVD version and punch in the UPC or something to get the coupon. Blu Ray.com has the code somewhere but be warned, FS didn't take mine. So you have to go to Wal Mart, Zellars or other stores.

[mdc3000]

^There are two coupons, you were trying to get the wrong one - www.snowwhiteoffer.com requires no previous purchase.

Anyone who was thinking of getting Wolverine used from Roger's or Blockbuster be warned that Fox's 'RENTAL EXCLUSIVE' discs that have no bonus features now extends to Blu-ray (early rental exclusive titles like Taken/12 Rounds just excluded a digital copy but still had all the features on the blu-ray disc, not so with Wolverine - it is completely barebones - they had been doing this with dvd but now BD has followed suit). So sticklers for extras, it seems buying Fox titles used is not the best idea from here on out. For a movie like this I don't care too much, so I'm not upset, but future titles I'll take under advisement.

[sweetvar26]

Yes buy Uncharted 2 !

Both are probably the same. Either way, FS/BB won't take them willingly. The code was posted previously and you didn't have to buy the old one, you just have to own the old one which some people who are collectors might have it.

If anyone is looking for Freddy Vs Jason US edition, Wal Mart had them. Can't find that version anywhere at FS/BB.

Not bad, I think only YWY is a re-hash daily killer.

I will most likely pickup Water Horse for the little guy - but I'll try PMing at BB who sells it for 34.99 - this way it will cost ~8.50 taxes in.

Thanks for the info bud! Wait do we have such store (Rexall Drugs) in GTA?

Yes there are lots of Rexall stores in the GTA, although you may know them better by their old/pre-merged name, Pharma Plus. They also own IGA and Guardian, but I think only the Rexall Pharma Plus stores have the blu-ray for $24.99.

As someone else mentioned, Rexall has the DVD packaging version (with Snow White on the cover) and not the blu-ray packaging (with the Queen/Witch). However people have successfully PM'ed Rexall's price at Walmart or Zellers and gotten the blu-ray one (which is officially cheaper, maybe because it's in a smaller case).

Pharma Plus!! ok thats better lol. I know them by that. If people bought the steelcase from futureshop and didnt get the movie yet this is a great deal. You dont need to worry about the packaging because you can transfer the movies onto the steelcase anyways.

[Trifid]

I wasn't able to PM at WM with Rexall as I didn't have the actual flyer - just a print out), but WM did take the $10 off coupon - so I paid 19.97 for the witch copy with the proper BR case.

Typo - Its at SIG Electronics for $16.99 but you can PM it (and 10% off difference) with Future Shop for $15.69 (or Best Buy for $15.49)

[mikalh78]

Even better! thanks!

my bad..my title was pretty misleading.
Fixed! thanks..

[mini kangaroo]

with Monsters VS Aliens (SIG), anyone ever successfully PMed at FS? reason being is it might not be possible, since SIG cost 9.99 to ship. My location is Edmonton Alberta

Thanks in advance

[mikalh78]

and showed them the movie form SIGs, they saw the shipping cost and told me the best that they can do is give it to me for 24.99 is this a good deal?

[Trifid]

If you're outside the GTA, that's right - they will add the 9.99 shipping to the PM.

I would try a few other places (Best buy, Walmart, etc.) and see if you get lucky and they miss it :D

I guess I'm lucky, I work right by SIG and the BB up the street PMs right away with no hassles.

IMO, for 24.99 I would wait for it used from BBV, they will have lots of copies soon.

[mikalh78]

i didn't kno that wallymart price matched, cool. i'll try tomorrow and see

[ppl4golf]

I thank all PMers around GTA and kept stock available. I was in the area and went straight to SIG and picked up the Monsters vs Aliens. $17 is still not too cheap considering the whole family went to this movie LOL

Interesting to see how the 3-D vignette shows...

[mini kangaroo]

so i successfully price matched at futureshop in edmonton, even there is no SIG, the guy i talked to said yeah, they would match it, just do it upfront, and the CSR that was at cash was a student i think, so i think i lucked out there. they didnt do the 10% difference right, end up tot be 16.49 plus tax, but i cant complain as i saved about 13 bucks for a blu-ray movie

[blahblehblah]

Thanks for the updates.
MONSTERS VS. ALIENS for $16.99 is HOT.. this movie just got released!

[danman227460]

Or they got a good price for buying some movies in bulk. Having Aliens VS Monster isn't going to get me into their stores. I will believe them again when they start stocking the new upcoming releases like Transformers 2, GI Joe, Hangover, Public Enemies, Star Trek etc.

Huh? Sure they do, I've used it several times to pick up stuff at the Brampton location (especially when there was no in-store stock and the quantity was listed as "Special Order"):

Shipping Method
Canada Post Xpresspost
Canada Post Priority
Flat Rate $9.99-Canada & US
PickUp @ Brampton – Free!
PickUp @ Richmond Hill Mon-Fri

Moot point now, though -- Monsters vs Aliens is gone from the site, leaving only the other three titles.

Must have missed out on that detail but since im gone for 2 weeks i doubt they will keep one for me anyways. Oh well like you said moot point now anyways, no biggy.

Someone had speculated SIG would not offer new releases and was clearing their old cache of movies at $9.99. It appears they'll offer new releases at a decent price and will continue to clear out older movies at $9.99. Perhaps the new releases are here to entice buyers for the older movies.

i speculated that and am actually surprised they got a batch in for some of the newer releases... still not as frequent as they did before and seems rather selective now.

Or they got a good price for buying some movies in bulk. Having Aliens VS Monster isn't going to get me into their stores. I will believe them again when they start stocking the new upcoming releases like Transformers 2, GI Joe, Hangover, Public Enemies, Star Trek etc.

true that.

[jaydm]

looks like they sold out of Monsters Vs Aliens quick. Expected ofcourse.

+1, I never have a problem with the BB in Markham or the FS in Brampton as they are now aware of SIG.



it's a one day sale correct?

A 1 day sale is still a sale and is eligible for the FS and BB PM policy.

As always a PM is lightly YMMV.

Edit: PM'd Labyrinth at BB Markham no prob - the CSR knew the website immediately and jumped right to the Daily killer section; she even asked if it was a good transfer (http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Labyrinth-Blu-ray-Review/5026/), then PMd a copy for herself - ha!

[i-rui]

Well I was denied a PM @ the 401/weston future shop.

The excuse was it's a one day sale, and thus a "limited time offer" and they don't have to price match it. I responded by saying that they could say ANY sale is a limited time offer.... that's the definition of a "sale".... a deal for a limited time.

Anyways, my advice to others is to stay away from price matching at the 401/weston future shop. they're douchebags.

Thats kinda good and sad to hear at the same time. I know i missed out on the Monsters vs Aliens Sig thing when i was in HK.. i swear a dozen kittens died when they heard me scream "NOOOOOO!!!". Anyways, i picked up a dozen of HK blu-rays in HK. Went and got "Chi Bi" and "Ip man" which are supposedly good. Also got Jet Li's re-mastered "Wong Fei Hung" which i have to say is great for a 1991 movie. Also got "Overheard" which is not a bad movie as well. Didn't bother with the 4 Bruce Lee movies though. I got some concert material too but probably not worth mentioning unless you are familiar with the artists themselves lol

I was tempted to get all these steelbooks i was able to find in HK which were mostly from Australia (Fast and Furious 4, Gladiator etc) but figured if i couldnt watch it, it would be useless to buy it.

On a seperate note, Transformers 2 Steelbook is fairly nice.. although im puzzled at this point what to do with the extra casing i have lol.. maybe i will just keep it for show :D

Thanks for the Info Dealsguy! Great price on Wolverine and Ironman

Too bad i picked up Ironman when it first came out. Wolverine i didn't like the movie enough to warrant a blu-ray purchase but at $13.99 with free shipping im definitely considering it lol

Blu-rays for East Asia, Japan and North America are all part of the same region which is 1 so they all work on a PS3 in N/A. I believe Europe is region code 2 and Australia and the others are region code 3. Some discs have no region code so they play on all PS3s but you gotta be careful

The steelbooks there were fairly expensive for some.. cheapest ones were F & F 4 and Gladitor actually.. around $350 HKD which is around $50 CAD. They had others that were going for liek $700 HKD which i basically told them to take a hike lol. Transformers steelbook would have made boatloads of money in HK.. people were stuck with the bumblebee case for the DVDs only. Anyways, i didn't get any steels cause it wasnt worth it but my blu-ray collection did expand lol

Needless to say im now trying to find Drag me to Hell, BSG: The plan and im gonna be spending more money in the following weeks for Forrest Gump, Monsters Inc. (steelbook) and UP (steelbook).

Im probably the same as you, im not exactly looking to profit but i do want to expand my steelbook collection and perhaps doing a trade with other members around the world is the only way to go about it.

Also ordered 3 steelbooks from FS: Harry Potter 6, Terminator Salvation and Star Trek. Will also be ordering Monsters Inc and UP when it gets posted on their website and hopefully Inglourious Bastards will get new stock in.

Damn u steelbook addiction! Damn u!!!!! :lol:

Edit: found your thread.. all i can say is sweet jesus you are getting busy there. Its like you setup shop or something. Im probably the same as you, im not exactly looking to profit but i do want to expand my steelbook collection and perhaps doing a trade with other members around the world is the only way to go about it. Can you give me some pointers on how you are doing your trades (ie shipment methods when you trade steel for steel etc.) PM me if you want as im interested to find out what the costs exactly are and how to approach this. Thanks bro

[danman227460]

You should actually use the 10 off 100 coupon. Used it for my batch order of Terminator, Inglorious and Star Trek.

Oh Jaydm, can you also PM the shipping details too. I would like to know your method.

Ya you're right..Good tip. I shouldve used that. I preordered terminator because its gonna be free shipping when the price lowers. The others i can pick up on day one to save on shipping..but now that i think of it..the 10 bux off would cover that..lol..

pm sent

Oh i did.. i tried to stack on the 5% coupon i had too from those erroneous pricing errors but it didnt work. Stacked Terminator, HP and Star trek. If IB comes back in stock next week i would love stacking that with UP and monster Inc but i think the promo would be over by then sadly. Perhaps there is another promo code i can find.

[danman227460]

The best thing is that you can actually get shipped individually as they become available so its free shipping for each item WOO.

Ya usually they don't allow stacking of coupons. It would be great to compile 2-3 5% and use them at once but they don't allow it.

Did that too with individual shipping since its free to do so anyways. Too bad stacking coupons is not allowed... WB allowed it when i ordered that super batch of boxsets lol

Yep. It's been officially announced. Almost a steelbook every week, how fun.

We got shafted on the Rocky prices and pretty much all the other releases for the week. If the dollar ever climbs to par, I'm going to the US to shop.

When I was there picking up Transformers 2 IMAX, I paid 20 Dollars tax in. That is freaking cheap compared to the 31.99 we have to pay.

Oh I saw Universal Soldiers on the BB flyer so I might pick that up.

Hi Folks

Ok I'm a blu ray novice. whats the benifit of buying a steelbook version ?

[danman227460]

Nothing :D.

Some of them, the current Disney ones, are RARE and hard to find. Some people in the states will pay top dollars for the more popular ones like UP, Monster's Inc, Sleeping Beauty, Pinocchio. So the benefit would be money if you buy enough and sell enough but I heard the overall profits is marginal.

I find that sometimes the blu ray and steelbook version are within price range of each other so it doesn't cost too much to have a fancy package for a movie you love. My Transformers 2 steelbook looks nice, way better then the ugly cover art.

A limited edition steel box. Better start camping out now - wouldn't want to miss out on being the only person on you block to own a Blu-Ray that comes in a steel box. :twisted:

[jaydm]

Agreed. Also its a collectors item. But for the actual movie itself, it goes in the blu-ray player just the same :cheesygri. As for me, i like sb's but only on movies that are keepers. I like 2 out of the 12 disney steelbooks coming out but im gonna get each and everyone of them because just like danman said, the profits are gonna be good. So if you can buy two of each disney steelbook, sell one for double the price (which is about the going rate for it right now) you get one for free!

I really hate to double dip on Pirates for the steelbooks and alot of the pixar ones i have bought from before so i might stay away from them. Im debating if i want Angels & Demons SB but it is bilingual and looks butt ugly! Im hoping they restock IB.. i would love to have that movie on SB. ANyone watched public enemies? Worth the SB collection? District 9 for sure is gonna be SB for me

Only title i would recommend from that list is "The Queen" which is a good movie and for $9.99, a great price.

[bgggg2001]

Not sure if it is because of the steelbooks are coming out or what but RCSS has some great deals on disney bluray starting today...Picked up A Bug's Life for $22 and Ratatouille for $18 they had others but already had them all.

[DJXP]

why did i have to discover this thread...splurge time :twisted:

[Flipmars]

Only title i would recommend from that list is "The Queen" which is a good movie and for $9.99, a great price.

you wouldn't recommend Reservoir Dogs or Basic Instinct over the Queen?

I'm sad =P

On a more serious note, there is a few 10$ titles over at HMV, went today and came out with American Psycho. (other titles I can remember are Total Recall, Reservoir Dogs, Stargate and a few others).

Also bought 28 days later for 10$ at Best Buy yesterday.

[BBruins]

Future Shop also has Dog Day Afternoon on for 9.99.

[danman227460]

Some titles not advertised but I found:

Death Race: 15
Wanted: 15
Mummy 3: 15

They all have special tags on them. The Strangers was on sale the week before for 15.

[andsoitgoes]

You should actually use the 10 off 100 coupon. Used it for my batch order of Terminator, Inglorious and Star Trek.

Oh Jaydm, can you also PM the shipping details too. I would like to know your method.

DAMN. I ordered within that window and didn't think of using the coupon!! :evil::evil:

Damn.

I did virtually the same order, but replaced Terminator with Harry Potter. I really need to get my butt in gear and buy an extra of some of these things to resell, but I also don't want to take away form the legit people who want them!!

[the_fm]

some of the $14.99 movies at FS are now $19.99 (in Montreal at least) and Hellboy 2 is back to regular price ($32 i think) >:(

God dammit Jay, stop telling everyone our plans. This is supposed to be top secret!!!!111oneoneone :lol:

IMO Public Enemies isn't worth it to add to your SB collection. I mean I thought the movie was a little bit better then what people say but even with that it ain't worth it.

[uber_uter]

Not sure if it is because of the steelbooks are coming out or what but RCSS has some great deals on disney bluray starting today...Picked up A Bug's Life for $22 and Ratatouille for $18 they had others but already had them all.

Is this Canada wide? I was looking for a good price on A Bug's Life.

[kmchow]

So the selection at the Grandview GVR RCSS branch is as follows for the

$14 - Con Air
$14.99--Hulk, Mummy Returns, Miami Vice, Role Models, Scorpion King, Pride and Glory, Wanted, Inkheart, Pearl Harbour,
$17 - Pirates-Dead Man's Chest
$18 - Ratatouile, Black Hawk Down, Camp Rock, Enchanted
$21 - Wall E, Pirates-At World's End

Also bought 28 days later for 10$ at Best Buy yesterday.

Basic instinct and reservoir dogs as a movie i would recommend. As a blu-ray transfer, no way. If the transfer were better, i would have kept them in my collection.

DAMN. I ordered within that window and didn't think of using the coupon!! :evil::evil:

Damn.

I did virtually the same order, but replaced Terminator with Harry Potter. I really need to get my butt in gear and buy an extra of some of these things to resell, but I also don't want to take away form the legit people who want them!!

Don't worry, HP and Salvation prices were adjusted after the online order with $10 off. FS caught onto this and lowered the price which in effect actually cancels out the $10 so i felt jipped but whatever.

IMO Public Enemies isn't worth it to add to your SB collection. I mean I thought the movie was a little bit better then what people say but even with that it ain't worth it.

Alright, noted. Will keep that in mind.. but who knows, maybe the cover art will be full of awesomeness and i will have to fill my steel hunger and buy it! :D

Haha Jay, i kid man :lol: Im glad he decided to look at this thread too, we have an increasing number of viewers/fans. Perhaps we will get more deals/websites we have not heard of yet. On a seperate note, wallmart has "the taking of pelham 123" for blu-ray for like 3.87 or something like that.. PM with BB tomorrow and get it for like $2 and change tax in. Another thread talked about it so credit goes there.

not a good deal, wait for Black Friday or Boxing Day

Not so sure on that for blu-rays.. large electronic equipment yes but sadly even for those you have to drive down to the states, compete with both canadian and US people and spend hours crossing the border. If you can land the deal, great, but the savings i would presume would be minimal in difference on blu-rays and cheaper than $9.99? Kinda doubt it.. mind you i agree the selection from SIG is crap but most of the new movies can be had for $20 tax in if you PM it to some websites like dvdnextgen and whatnot.

Ya i saw that. Walmart has the tendency to do that but i always find that they change the price right on opening day. So if i were you, print out the web page now. and bring it to bb tomorrow. They usually dont check the sites to confirm.

[jaydm]

Oh and for those ppl that missed out or cant find Batman Anthology in Costco, i was at BBV today and saw it for $49.99. Brand new sealed. Still a good price for the collection.. comes with digi copies too.

Blasphemy.. we all want metal tins for our blu-rays.. steelbook addiction ftw!!!! :twisted:

On a seperate note, i posted this on the bluray.com forum but when i went to pick up Rat steelbook today at Yonge and Dundas FS, the guy in front of me cleaned house on steelbooks... i thought he bought 10.. but i after asking the CSR there, she said he bought 12... 12!!! >:( Like wtf...all these people should be ashamed of running shop like that, pure greed i tell you and it was a guy in like his late 40s, early 50s too. Hope you all got the steels first day cause i would imagine its all gone now and this was at like 10:30 in the morning!

On a seperate note, i posted this on the bluray.com forum but when i went to pick up Rat steelbook today at Yonge and Dundas FS, the guy in front of me cleaned house on steelbooks... i thought he bought 10.. but i after asking the CSR there, she said he bought 12... 12!!! >:( Like wtf...all these people should be ashamed of running shop like that, pure greed i tell you and it was a guy in like his late 40s, early 50s too. Hope you all got the steels first day cause i would imagine its all gone now and this was at like 10:30 in the morning!

I went during my lunch break and was lucky to find two on the shelves..i only bought one though. Yup we call those ppl hoarders..im sure they are profiting on ebay right about now..

Its starting to become addicting.. not sure if this is good or bad considering my wallet is starting to look empty every day. Im not sure either if i want to get all the pixar SBs and just sell them in a package or not now.. seems like alot of work and from what i saw on other posters on the forums, its like $50 USD for tracking on international shipping... yikes

[danman227460]

Forgot Green Mile at 29 but not a deal. I just found out you can save 10 dollars off Monster's Inc + UP at BB. I did the math if you can convince them to take the 8 off Monster's and 10 off UP (this has shown up yet but people assume it will)

If you get BB accept three offers, that would be THE best price for us.

Doing the math:
33.99 + 31.99 = 65.98

65.98 - 10 (buying both) - 8 (Monster's Inc) - 10 (UP) = 37.98 before tax

42 dollars total for both so 21 for both.

I was reading about the blade trilogy and the blu-ray version is the cropped version. They reduced the size of the film to like 1.78:1 aspect ratio so just from there i am not grabbing it and probably explains the price drop. Also heard it was bare bones and no extras release too.

Thats pretty expensive for Green Mile and its a BB exclusive only right? Local store did not have it sadly so i guess i will wait.

Yes there are 2 coupons for Monsters Inc and Up next week. Monsters inc coupon is $8 off and $10 off for UP. I am going to FS at 10:00 sharp to pick up both SBs and use the coupons for a sweet deal. Generally BB does not stack promos but its YMMV so good luck there.

Also saw u post on the ratatouille SB thread at blu-rays.com danman. If you wanna trade another disney SB for my copy of Rat, PM me.

[waterduck]

Oh and for those ppl that missed out or cant find Batman Anthology in Costco, i was at BBV today and saw it for $49.99. Brand new sealed. Still a good price for the collection.. comes with digi copies too.

thanks for posting this one up, took me an while to find an copy. also hmv has the ultimate matrix collection for 49.99 if anyone missed the costco deal.

Not sure if it has been noted yet, but the Zellers flyer has disney blu-rays on sale this week. Picture shows Wall-E, Ratatouille, Pirates of the Caribbean 3, and National Treasure 2.

August Rush was the type of movie I thought looked overly cloy / manipulative in the trailers, but which I thought might turn out to be genuinely moving and unpretentious. Well, my original assessment was correct, lol. ;) But at least it was watchable, whereas I turned off The Soloist in short order. :lol:

Actually you are better off bringing in the $8 off for monsters inc and potential $10 off coupon for UP to zellers and get it for like $15 per since BB or FS won't do double promos (ie price match and coupon). You can try walmart but im sure its prob the same thing.. can't have both. Im going for the SB anyways so im gunning for the coupons only

Ok.. gonna re-read the reviews then.. im pretty sure it wasn't that bad in terms of the review, but then again the ratings become overtly skewed sometimes by good PQ and AQ and a crap movie.

Edit: I re-read the reviews.. kinda funny really. Blu-ray.com has this movie rated at 4.5/5 and loves it but rates the Soloist as a crappier version compared to this. Highdefdigest rates this movie like crap but gives Soloist a high recommendation. Since both movies seem to be crap, i guess i won't trust either review and will skip this one. I have too many blu-rays already, shelf space needs to be conserved :)

I wonder if people are gonna be insane tonight and go to the midnight launch party at Bay and Dundas for COD:MW2 then lining up at 10:00am at futureshop for Monsters Inc. and UP. Its gonna be wild i tell u :lol:

Ya Monsters Inc and Up are the two steels i really wanted. I doubt i would need to go at 10am tomorrow though as these are new releases (as oppose to pinnochio, sleeping beauty etc that was already released prior to the Steels). So im pretty sure they will have tons of copies if i go during my lunch break. but then again.... hoarders:evil:

What I really want to know is if Best Buy will honour the two coupons after already subtracting $10 for buying the two movies together (which I hope happens automatically in their system, because three manual adjustments would really be pushing it with them ;)). If BB has the steelbook you're after and you go there, let us know how it turns out!

I'm in the same boat as you (losing too much shelf space to movies, many of which I won from radio stations so I'm happy to trade or give those away once I've watched them once). For that reason alone, I would say that if you have to read a bunch of reviews looking for a positive one to justify a blind buy of a movie that you probably won't watch again, then regardless of the PQ/AQ or price it's not a "deal"! Don't do it! :D

[danman227460]

DON'T do that. You have to be up at 10 and I plan to. UP is not wanted as much but Monster's Inc is going to sell like hot cakes. Everyone wants one. I might pick up two just for trade bait. I expect a line up at 10 AM tomorrow.

Personally I'd find it more convenient to be at my local FS/BB at midnight then at 10 AM the next morning on a work day. That's if I was willing to pay a premium for a precious SB, which I'm not (doesn't seem to be much point when I didn't bother collecting any of the others, except maybe as a gift to a Disney enthusiast... of which I know none :)).

This is gonna be hella messy, we gotta organize this and perhaps nab copies for one another if thats the case. Can you imagine people not knowing this and going there at 10:00am tomorrow thinking they will land a copy but have nothing in the racks and the CSR saying: "sorry bro, you missed out, they were all gone at 12:00am last night". Man... now i gotta drive to an FS at midnight tonight just to get UP and Monsters Inc.... people will prob look at me wierd and think, whats this silly guy doing not grabbing MW2 :lol:

Forget the hardened edition man.. its not worth paying the extra bucks for :) You play 360 or PS3? We should look each other up if you play PS3. Btw, you still interested in a copy of Ratatouille SB.. will trade for other disney SBs i missed if you got spare ;)

IF for some reason i dont get a copy of Monsters INC, and you have an extra copy maybe we can work something out with the other SBs you missed. ie snow white or pinnochio or sleeping beauty.

LOL, I really thought that was the movie's name until I googled it just now to confirm. I think that should establish that I'm not a fan of either the movie or the game. :D

[blahblehblah]

I play the PS3 but I'm rarely online. I am good for the Ratatouille SB but thanks though.

I am preparing my Boxing Day Kit. Chair, Hot Water, Cup O Noodles, PSP, DS, Ipod.

I wonder how the line will look by 11:30.

will take a picture.. im pissed i cannot get the coupon printer to work.. oh well, cannot save $8.. i might bum it off another RFDer at the FS and go to Kinkos and make a photocopy maybe lol. if the line is big, i shall be taking pictures but im pretty sure BB will have a larger line given the T2G1F promo for MW2 and their lower prices + the buy 2 get $10 off for UP and monsters Inc.

LOL, I really thought that was the movie's name until I googled it just now to confirm. I think that should establish that I'm not a fan of either the movie or the game. :D

:lol:

Edit: So i was there as one of the few people that were getting blu-ray vs COD MW 2 which i got some wierd eyes for obviously. I actually managed to bypass the whole COD cashier line and got another CSR to key in my purchase so in total only took me around 20 min to get into the store and i walked out within 1. The SBs are, in my honest opinion, butt ugly in terms of looks. I cannot stress how much i hate the jumbo box set look and if it wasn't for the fact i wanted my pixar collection to match, i would not have even purchased it (if they made the boxset like Band of Brothers where the whole thing was steel, that would be nice but they did this crappy thing where only part of it is steel and the middle part is plastic... its ok from the spine portion on the racks but OMG is it ugly if u look at the other side). Sadly as well my UP SB has a minor dent on the upper right i couldn't catch due to the shrink wrap being glossy (damn u glossy shrinkwrap!!!!). Also, people buying this should be aware they stuck alot of those sticky films to get the leaflets to attach to the SB (they did an excessive amount on up.. there were like 20 round sticky films all over it!).

Anyways to sum it up short, if you are not an SB collector, stay away from this one. You are better off going to BB and getting it cheaper in a reg blu-ray jumbo case which would probably look much better with the slip cover.

Got both at 12:30 am last night. I don't like the looks but i don't want my collection to have the 2 odd ones out. Still waiting on shipment for the extra copies and might return them if they are dented... i have this feeling the jumbos are gonna be dented upon shipment due to their size and cheap plastic feel on the inside. Im gonna try and get the coupons to work so i might PM my receipt tomorrow or something

Update on T4 and Harry Potter SB:

http://www.futureshopforums.ca/futur...thread.id=3356

It seems WB has switched suppliers and these movies might come in an inferior SB format. I might have to see what it is but if its not a true SB by Scanvo, I would avoid it.

Google metalpak and you can see the difference.

Oh hell no they are not pulling that kind of switcheroon on me. Ive just received my first metalpak (Dragon Age origins) and i can say its dented everywhere around the front on the corners.. made me so angry. Steelbooks are the way to go.. more sturdy and even if there is a dent, its not as big as the metal packs. MW 2 was a Steelbook i think and it was much more sturdy and looks nice :)

Im too lazy to cancel my order since i bundled it with Star Trek so im just gonna wait till they come in, if they look horrible.. return they go to FS. Like seriously, warner is so freakin cheap. First the crappy blu-ray releases when HD-DVD was in the running and they were playing both sides, now this? Oh well.. money saved for me for sure then.

If you paid shipping for it then yes. If its free shipping, no, wait till you get it and see for yourself (which is what im doing). Im still very skeptical towards this new iron case crap (i hate how FS does not even advise you of the change and the name actually changed on their website). I understands its the manufacturers decision but still.. comeon.. at least send an e-mail advising us of this. They know fair well whom their market is for steelbooks which is collectors/e-bayers and this change has upset quite a few people. Shame though, terminator was a title i want on SB.. Harry Potter i could care less but the temptation was just there for me.

i also want this title...i was half asleep when i updated this thread..lol. guess my mind was trying no to see the 1.

I was reading both reviews on G I Joe and the fact they had bare bones extras on it is just disappointing. I mean, comeon, the movie sucked but at least it could have been redeemed via extras.. some even said the PQ and AQ were not even top notch (at least transformers ROTF was top notch quality). And to think this has a sequel now... ughhh.. then again KOF is being made into a movie... Maggie Q as Mai :lol:. She ain't sexy enough and definitely don't got the chest... will be interesting to see how this is pulled off..

[danman227460]

A giant push up bra? Sadly NO asian female has the chest size of Mai. If they do, they are all adult entertainment stars and probably can't act beyond faking certain things...

GI Joe has good AQ, a lot of boom. Though right now TF2 is the top demo disc, a lot of boom and shiny scenes. Megan Fox in HD is a bonus.

Hopefully the sequel is better or at least a different cast. Channing Tatum should stick to dance movies where he doesn't have to say much. Whatever they do, they must give more screen time to Snake Eyes. He is THE best thing about the movie. Wwhen he had the sword fight with Storm Shadow, those swords clang holy cow. Awesome sound.

Lol Danman, stop reading my mind.. like..seriously... stop haha :lol:

Well, Maggie Q's acting is questionable at best. She wasn't that great in HK movies and it doesnt look like international exposure has improved her acting. Her leverage is she is asian, has decent looks and speaks pretty fluent english.. thats about it. Funny how you mention adult entertainment stars/AV actors.. if i had to choose for Mai's role.....:twisted:

Going back on topic of G.I. Joe, Channing Tatum and Sienna Miller was probably the 2 worst cast roles in the movie (Marlon Wayans is definitely a close third). Like you said, the only 2 roles that were prob cast well were Ray Park and Dennis Quaid really and both got minimal screen time. I cannot believe someone like Stephen Sommers (whom directed something as ingenious as mummy) made such crap as this.. then again.. Van Helsing was somewhere close to this.

Enough ranting.. the sequel to this will still prob sell millions anyways and i doubt the main characters will have a different cast.. quite sad really. >:(

Fluffy romantic comedy, you know the type.

Just kidding. :D It's an action/drama film, set in New York City but has a sort of European sensibility... very well regarded (in fact it's #34 on the IMDb!) and known today as Natalie Portman's first major role.

This is going for like $130 CAD or something insane like that.. reviews look decent from what i saw but considering it was like one of the biggest budget series ever done for HBO, i think it will not disappoint.

Good price for fighting, how was the movie anyways Jay? I think you bought it right?

deepdiscount.com at one time had it for real cheap and someone said they sold like a couple thousand copies of BSG in a week.. was insane. 194 factoring in tax and shipping and brokerage fee is probably gonna be really expensive (plus a potential battered up box). This is one of the series i was willing to pay full price on just because its that good :cheesygri Wait for christmas.. might go on sale then but im sure there are many people gunning for a cheap set.

Its really up to you..If you dont care for the steel then ya get the regular 3 disc for 3 bux cheaper. But im warning you, if you get the steel, you might want more steels in the future lol. In the end of the day, they go in the blu ray player just the same..its all about the 'collectors' preference on wether you want the steel or not.

For $3....why not...my opinion atleast.. :D

Do you guys think Star Trek SB is worth it over regular? Wal-Mart has the regular 3 disc BD set for $3 cheaper, I think it's $26.83 for today until Thursday.

It is... and you shall be addicted to SB upon your very first touch and purchase of one. I shall now pre-maturely welcome you to the club :lol:

I dont think you will have a hard time trying to get one today even if you just walk in at your FS. They have TONS of copies at every FS.. but then again, you never know with the hoarders and which FS they will hit.

They have tons of copies but at FS at Yonge and DUndas the racks were nearly all cleaned out. Amazing how many are gone even with the 1 per policy.. this movie is definitely a great hit.

I don't know, I checked online this morning and all 4 of my local stores had stock, but now when I check both North York and Richmond Hill appear sold out but Markham and Markham East have stock. No idea how accurate the online in-store availability is though.

Online is not accurate. So your in-store pick-up to find out if they actually have a copy there.. reserving it costs nothing and will end up being void if you dont pick it up within 48 hours i think

I have mine being shipped to me since i packaged it with IB for pre-order so i will wait in the mail. I saw the pics of it.. looks good.. makes me wonder why they made UP and Monsters Inc the way they are. Surely, they could fit 4 discs on 2 sides of an SB.. look at the Star Trek one.. 3 discs fit in there perfectly.. just duplicate the 2 disc side on the other and viola

Pan's Labyrinth is $8.99 at FS.
Just bought it this morning.

For those who have the German Pan's Labyrinth steelbook, this is great for replacing the movie disc with a viewable one :)

Great tip thanks!

Cant wait to watch it..damn now i need some protective sleeves to prevent from scratching from one another..lol.. ok maybe i wont go that far ...

[blahblehblah]

Lol, what i do is i don't open them now if its movies ive watched. I keep them sealed (yes the SB OCD is catching up on me now). Ratatouille and Wall-E are being kept sealed for the moment and when Star Trek arrives i think it will be given similar treatment.

I heard about these protective sleeves.. where can i get them asides ordering them online? We got any local stores carrying them?

I just came back from BB after picking up their 3 disc BR set with the Enterprise model...

I am VERY disappointed, the Enterprise model allows you to store the discs in the saucer section HOWEVER,

The saucer section can only STORE TWO DISCS, they put the 3rd disc in a paper envelope >=(

Also, unlike the international version, they did not include a plastic Blu-Ray case in the event you do not want to store the discs in the model (like me, the model is going in my office not at home) so I have no case for my discs, but even if I did use the model for storage my 3rd disc would be outta luck since there's no room for it.

Bad form Paramount, very bad form.

On the other hand, the plastic model is actually quite good, pretty detailed and actually well painted. I'm just really upset that it did not come with a separate plastic blu-ray case as an alternative storage.

I'll recommend the steelbook version from FS instead.

Good to know winkle, just got my ISPU confirmation from FS 3 hrs after placing my order. Can't wait to leave work now!

This is kind of the reason i stay away from BB exclusive ones like those.. there is generally a problem with it plus it also doesn't really fit along with the rest of the BD's i have on the shelves. They are coming out with a terminator salvation exclusive as well which i believe is the terminator head and the discs inside. Considering Warner dropped the ball and made the FS exclusive an Iron book and not a steelbook, i was considering picking this up but i guess i will stay away from both and just pick up a reg edition.

Did you try squeezing in the third disc on top of like one of the others or is the space rather limited in it? Or perhaps they intended the paper envelope for the third disc to be the stand for the enterprise model? :lol: j/k

I think its all gone dude..Wall E was one of the disney titles that most people wanted.

[danman227460]

Any Disney steel would be gone within the first hour. Surprising, Wall E was the one that was still around 10:30. A nice stack at my local one. Normally, the disney SB would be done by then.

I picked up the Star Trek SB and watched a bit of it. Amazing sounds and with my new sub, it sounds even better.

Glad my buying spree is on hold until Dec 1 when T4 hits. I wonder how the iron case will look.

What video game SBs are there? Only one that is SB that i know of is MW2 which i got.. the dragon age origins was a metalpak which sucked. I guess i shouldn't know otherwise i will be in a world of hurt for my wallet :lol:

I think its all gone dude..Wall E was one of the disney titles that most people wanted.

Yeah Wall E all gone.. definitely a popular title but i think all PIXAR ones were popular and gone within the hour. Always ISPU if you are unsure but generally if you are at the store around 10:00 or at the latest 10:20, you should be fine.

Blasphemy.. no SB for Bugs Life, Cars? :cheesygri This is starting to feel like pokemon.. "gotta catch (collect) em all!". I think HP and T4 Iron case is going to be disappointing. I will probably pop in the stores to look at them and analyze it that way as i have them each shipping to me but i will more than likely return them. We should not let inferior products slide in and vote with our wallets with Warner.

Im also hoping Jumbo SBs will never appear again... whose decision was it to make it Jumbo? Scanavo's or Disneys?

My wallet says no especially after the sub lol. Besides, I don't like to double dip on the disney SB unless its a movie I really liked or didn't own already.

I feel the same way but I hope I am wrong. Though might save me a few bucks if the case isn't good as I can wait for the regular to go on sale.

Jumbos were created for the need to hold four discs. Some movie sets like F&F have four movies and when they made a SB, having a three disc holder wasn't gonna cut it. So it was made from a need. Sadly if Disney decided to forgo the extra digital copy, it would fit into a three disc. Movie + Special Features + DVD copy. Throw in the digital copy, and it won't fit anymore.

So blame Scanavo for creating it but also blame studios for creating the need for one.

You might actually, depending if FS does another Disney SB release. All the future ones will probably have 4 discs.

I swear i stopped looking at SIG a long time ago, im impressed you are still keeping the tradition going Jay lol. This whole new thing with SBs has made me actually look less for deals sadly because i am expected to pay retail price on those.. oh well, only 2 more weeks of pixar movies to go :cheesygri

Are you going to be getting the SB for Terminator Salvation from amazon.cn Jay? I was thinking of maybe getting a mini group buy on RFD to facilitate this even though shipping seems nominal at $4 i heard. I might order 2 in case one of them comes in dented... who knows..

Im in the same boat as you..damn SB's.. I dont know im kinda curious how this IRON CASE will look like..did you happen to see any pictures of it? if you did, share please :lol:...

If i dont like it then i can always trade something to get the steelbook from someone..but i dont mind having some different kinds of sbs in my collection..thats just me i guess.

And ya, keeping the tradition alive...im sure it helps some people i hope. There are still tons of blu-ray fans whose looking for a good deal..

I don't think pics have been released for the iron cases yet but the speculation is that it is a metalpak and not something different (ie identical to SB but not really SB). I am monitoring the forums at FS for any update but quite honestly to play it on the safe side, i will probably get the SB from amazon.cn. Return policy is good anyways i think and i heard people getting refunds and keeping the SB if it arrives in poor condition.

Did you see that french version of G.I.Joe SB that is supposed to be a sample only? My new OCD level just kicked in i think when i saw it.. must get must get :(

I definitely do not recommend Metalpaks if you want variety.. i think ive mentioned my dragon age: origins story like 5 times already so i won't bother again. SBs seem to be the safest and most sturdy for sure with the exception of the Jumbo set.

Anyways, i will be in stores when HP and Terminator arrive to take a look and im sure many others will be in the same boat as me. Im just hoping my Star Trek does not come in dented..

[Trifid]

Based on what I have read (http://www.futureshopforums.ca/futureshop/board/message?board.id=movies&thread.id=3356&view=by_date_ascending&page=1)the Iron Cases are more or less that same (basically a metal case).

Excerpt:

"Warner has changed their metal case supplier to a North American one.
They are not Steelbooks (trademarked)....

There are some slight differences in the spine as pointed out but beyond that seemed to be of identical quality."

So if you are collecting SteelBooks© this may 'ruin' your collection as it is a different brand. If, however, you just like cool metal cases then the tradition continues.

I, personally, would rather the extra money be put into transfer quality, but to each their own.

you won't be able to get it. i don't think the person in question is going to sell it. the only way would be to have a contact at Scanavo (yes, i saw the thread from the guy :razz:)

Well, the quality will be what it is but at this points its more where we can get the better qualify product from. Although the look is identical to an SB, it has been rumored that the quality of the product itself is not up to par with SB and would probably dent easier and whatnot. Oh well, since play.com does not ship outside the UK, i will have to resort to amazon.cn if i want an alternative.. i will keep the order alive at FS but if the product comes inferior, back it goes!

Public enemy and Angels & Demons don't seem to be getting good receiption as choices for SB either.. shame that G.I.Joe was not made into SB.. i might have actually grabbed it had it gone SB. They should make "9" an SB too.. i know District 9 is being made into an SB

44 pounds is hella expensive.. definitely do not want to get into OCD video game SBs syndrome. On a side note, is this a metalpak or SB? Kinda looks like a metalpak but can't tell due to the slip cover over it barring the spine..

People are saying there could still be potential this will be released in france as G.I.Joe is not released there yet. If you get a job there, don't forget all your RFD friends here!

Yeah, "steelbooks" and "deals" belong nowhere near each other in the same sentence. :D I'm astonished there are so many people here willing to pay the SB prices -- much less queue up at FS/BB at midnight or hunch over their PC four times a day on the off chance they'll be released on the website. ;) I hope it's the completionist in you and not the speculator!

The frugal shopper in me weeps at the prices you're paying to get a metal wrapper for your blu rays. :lol: Although I did buy three Bond steelbooks last summer... but only because they were cheaper than buying Vol. 3 (and yes, the SBs were far, far superior to that terrible volume packaging with the foam hubs!).

Well i gave up on the idea of collecting all disneys and selling them as a whole. I traded all the ones i have for SBs from germany. I got great value for them. I wont be getting any more disneys unless someone offers me a real good trade for one of them. I just traded Wall E for Resident Evil Trilogy Steelbook. I wont be getting POTC sbs.

[blahblehblah]

it's a steelbook and i agree, expensive.. there's one that need to be own, Quantum of Solace CE PS3 just because you can use it for the movie. custom made steelbook :lol:

Never thought of that.. dont give me ideas! :lol:

I will kill for the District 9 steelbook... I think I got the SB bug

Welcome to the club...

Yeah, "steelbooks" and "deals" belong nowhere near each other in the same sentence. :D I'm astonished there are so many people here willing to pay the SB prices -- much less queue up at FS/BB at midnight or hunch over their PC four times a day on the off chance they'll be released on the website. ;) I hope it's the completionist in you and not the speculator!

The frugal shopper in me weeps at the prices you're paying to get a metal wrapper for your blu rays. :lol: Although I did buy three Bond steelbooks last summer... but only because they were cheaper than buying Vol. 3 (and yes, the SBs were far, far superior to that terrible volume packaging with the foam hubs!).

I used to be like you sadly.. i would laugh at those paying retail price for a metal wrapper and now look where i am.. a hypocrite that is addicted :( Both completionist and speculator really.. i don't mind keeping it or using it as trade bait really. In fact i sold my old set so i can have an excuse to keep the new ones.. kind sad really :(

I gave up too :( I might use the remainder ones i have as trade bait for some other SB's.. who knows, you can't go wrong with pixar

surely you are all exaggerating about the steelbook addiciton...although i do have wall-e steelbook coming in soon..

Ya i traded the first 5 disneys for SB movies i really wanted..Got some good ones out of them too. Ironman (German Release) would be one of them. The only ones i kept is Monsters Inc And Up. Those are the two i wanted from the beginning. I have Bug's Life on regular BD so im not gonna get it Unless like i said someone were to offer me a SB that we cant get here.

Not a addict really, for me all i really want are the movies i want in my collection and will watch over and over again and being a Steelbook is a gaurantee its a keeper for me (since i do alot of trades, SBs from my collection i dont trade)..Im guessing Wall E is your first SB? im sure it wouldnt be your last :lol:

surely you are all exaggerating about the steelbook addiciton...although i do have wall-e steelbook coming in soon..

steelbooks are nice. i only buy them if i don't already own the movie. only double dip on Wall-E as i have the US version. the one steelbook i really really want is the Iron Man one even if i already have the movie. looks way too good in red

and on top of that, i have a couple of steelbook games.. Halo Wars, Devil May Cry and MW2. not going to hunt them all though. only buying those that look good. i'll eventually get Star Wars Sith Edition, Quantum of Solace CE PS3 to use with the movie, Uncharted 2 CE UK and the best of all imo, Tales of Vesperia CE :lol:

oh, almost forgot. i have my Transformers 2 steelbook coming. it'll go nicely with the Imax version (didn't bought the movie previously so no duplicate)

Iron man german release.. hmm gotta look that up and offer my pixar trade baits. I got my Star Trek SB today.. one i think is seriously flawed at the front so i might end up returning it or give it off as a gift to those that are not OCD like me.. the other i opened had minor flaws here and there but my OCD didn't kick in so i guess im fine with it :lol:

Nah, I see you and jay and most of the other SB fans here are pretty savvy, so with judicious trading and deals you've probably managed not to put yourself too deep in a hole to buy these things, right? Right?? ;)

Y'know, if something like the Disney SBs had been reasonably priced (well, I guess Bug's Life SB was cheaper than the regular version while it was still on sale... probably other examples like that, too), I may have dipped a toe in the SB pool myself. Some of the artwork on those metallic covers were really nice. But reading a whole thread of people bitching how FS released a title too early/late, and/or the servers were down, and/or ISPUs were disregarded while others came in and bought a dozen... that really put me off. I refuse to labour over something that's expensive to begin with and which I'd have no guarantee I could even complete. :razz:

I know jay is pretty savvy, he got some good trades in. I might do the same for a few ive been wanting in the collection.. iron man is definitely one. Im just a beginner on the other hand in SB trading so i don't know how i will fare out yet :cheesygri

Some of the SBs are fairly cheaper.. like ratatouille, bugs life and i think Cars are fairly cheap. FS sometimes messes up on these orders.. shipping them is a gamble for sure if you want them in pristine condition. Best is to ISPU at midnight and then walk in after work to pick up your copy, but if you wanna be able to pick a non dented one, you gotta be there early for sure.

My 4yr old son, unfortunately, loved Space buddies and has already pointed out 'I want that one' for the Santa buddies commercial; my lone solace is that the Video and audio quality is rather nice in the 'buddies' series (it is Disney after all) and getting $10 off is pretty nice (~19 retail is acceptable).

Of course, this will eventually be 9.99 @ SIG soon enough, once they stop regurgitating old killers :lol:

I've heard it's bad even for a Buddies movie, and that's saying something! I won Snow Buddies from the radio a couple of years ago and it was semi-decent (especially for a little kids movie), but ever since Space Buddies the plots don't even pretend to be reasonable now! I hear this film in particular was rushed (they're already working on the next one), with really bad CGI.

If it was $9.99 though, I'd get it for the DMR code, to watch it once to see if it really is that bad, and then sell it at or below cost to someone I know with little kids. :razz: Definitely won't happen before Xmas though. Space Buddies was once $12.99 on SIG, only to come back months later at $14.99 (ditto HSM3, which started as a $14.99 daily killer but has since come back "on sale" at $16.99).

Actually now that I see it's the same price online, I wonder if there are any other $15 titles of interest -- and how they can all be searched at once? When I saw ATU (which I already have) at that price I wondered what else had been similarly discounted.

that FC SB is just amazing.

Although whether it is a steelbook is in question. It might be a metal-pack, I'm not sure. That's what it's showing on the Amazon.de site.

And in the end, I don't know if I can justify almost $60 for just a case, regardless how much I loved the movie.

I did more digging.. looks like an SB on blu-ray.com with some the pictures but i wonder if there maybe 2 versions of this.. one as an SB and the other metal-pak.

Across the Universe - $15 at HMV (http://hmv.ca/Products/Detail/239000.aspx) - $34.99 at FS/BB
Fight Club - $19.99 at HMV (http://hmv.ca/Products/Detail/535312.aspx) - $26.99 at FS
300 (Repackaged) - $18.99 at HMV (http://hmv.ca/Stores/StoreStock.aspx?SKU=469119) - $36.99 at FS. This might be an error as I haven't heard of the Repackaged edition before, and the UPCs do not match. But the picture is for the Ultimate Edition and is from BB!
V for Vendetta - $20 at HMV (http://hmv.ca/Products/Detail/303305.aspx) - $26.99 at FS
Underworld (Unrated) - $15 at HMV (http://hmv.ca/Products/Detail/155008.aspx) - $26.99 at FS
Donnie Darko - $14.99 at BB (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926INGFSM2161135&catid=27871) - $24.99 at FS
Amadeus (Director's Cut) - $20.99 at BB (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926INGFSM2161264&catid=27873) - $28.99 at FS

Those are some pretty good deals.. IF that is 300 Complete Experience Digibook thats a hell of deal.

Thanks..updated. Ur right..no good titles really.

anyone pick up any steels today..I saw a few Bug's Life when i went to FS. Picked one up and traded it within an hour..lol..for Hangover SB.

[LatrellMoonwell]

hey i know kinda off topic but...did anyone get their wall-e steelbooks yet? mine still says "item transferred for processing" and its been like this for a week now

[blahblehblah]

I doubt it is.. HMV is notorious for using the wrong picture but you "might" be able to hold them to it if you are lucky.. print it out and try. Is amadeus the digibook version? Gotta look it up...

Thanks..updated. Ur right..no good titles really.

GF wants to watch "He's not that into you".. im not sure if i want to bite at $14.99 to be honest... $9.99 maybe but i think the reviews were utter crap. On a good note, i did pick up Bugs Life SB... and how on earth are you trading it SOOOOO fast Jay? Like Holy cow man. Not sure if i want Hangover SB though.. i must be one of the few that didn't find the movie to be as hilarious as some made it to be.

I think i will keep my disney SB's unwrapped.. still have 3 disney fodders in case i wanna trade for something but will more than likely use them as christmas gifts

Never preordered it, i just got it on release date. But i did hear some ppl havent gotten theirs yet. Not surprised...its FS after all..You will get it this week most likely.

Ya, i have made a few friends in the U.S and in Germany over the last month so i just deal straight with them. Hangover was hilarious..maybe you werent in the best mood when watching? lol...Its gotta be one of the funniest movies ive ever watched.

Wow, those would make good christmas gifts!

[J-Wo]

God I love my local FS (Markham East) for PM. There's a manager who works the returns desk and he's always very straightforward and honest with PMs, never any BS or lies, like we only price match BB not give you 10% difference. Anyway if the PM is legit and reasonable, it's hassle free, the way it should be!

Picked up Across the Universe for $12.99, Underworld for $13.79, and Donnie Darko for $13.99! They didn't have Amadeus or 300: The Complete Experience in stock. I think the 300 PM will be really YMMV cause the catalogue number listed doesn't match BB or FS, plus all HMV stores say they have quantity of 1 in stock which makes me wonder if it's "phantom" stock.

i probably wasn't, maybe i should revisit it again..... do you have any other german contacts that still want Monsters Inc, Ratatouille SB to trade for another SB (i was hoping for fight club or iron man). If you do, can you PM me jay and i will come in contact with them. Thanks

I have contacts in the U.S. who has a lot of steelbooks..But Fight Club and Ironman is real hard to get. And im assuming you are referring to Ironman German Re-release. If my contacts has them i will pm you for sure.

Yes german re-release and fight club is hard to get but probably only because of how pricey it is. If i really wanted it, amazon.de still has stock and from the pictures it is an SB not a metal-pak but at $25 euroes.. yikes.. with shipping and everything this might be close to like a $60-$70 CAD SB.

Only 2 i want really.. if its not doable i might bite the bullet and order from amazon.de and get fight club and leon the professional. Anyone know if i can use a canadian credit card to order from there or do they have strict rules that it has to be a german credit card? (ie no dice for us). Im tempted to call amazon.de to find out..

Greetings all - longtime reader of this forum but first-time poster.
Thanks for the info J-Wo - much appreciated. Local FS price-matched HMV's website printout price on '300 Ultimate Experience', so I snagged it for $17.36 after the PM and 10 % difference discount.

[smay69]

Cuthroat Island at $9.99 is $20 too expensive. They really should pay you to take it....one of THE worst movies ever made.

No problem, glad I could help someone! I successfully PM'd today too, but got an even BETTER price. The web and in store price for 300 has dropped to $16.99, but I went to HMV to discover the "Repackaged" version is just that -- the basic 1 disc 300 with an extra paper sleeve. Oh ya and it has a unique UPC code than other versions. Anyway I went to FS Markham who had it for $36.99, so I for $14.99 with PM!!!

IME, BB's are much worse for PM. Most CS reps ask their manager first who tell them to confirm the printout on the website then call a local store. But most FS don't even have PC's with internet connection at their returns desk.

Good luck to anyone else who wants to try this. :)

Ya I guess it all depends on where you are and who you get. I find the two FS in Markham are generally good for PM, but the BB in Markham and Richmond Hill can give me a hard time

On an unrelated note, does anyone else here find that some Blu-ray cases have very warped plastic sleeves for the front cover? I saw it on my copy of Across the Universe, initially I thought it was the cover art itself, so I exchanged before opening for another copy. I found it was the plastic itself that was wrinkled, on this copy the back side was all wrinkly but the front was okay, which I find more important. I passed by an HMV and both their copies of ATU had very wrinkly fronts. No idea what is causing this!

Im with Jay on this one. BB over FS in terms of PMing.

Dont know about the sleeves.. i think some of mine were wrinkly but not to the point where it was very annoying i think. My OCD level has moved onto steelbooks now but i think im only OCD level 2 where im still letting minor flaws flow through :lol:

On a seperate note, does anyone know if star wars clone war: season 1 is out on blu-ray yet? I was reading somewhere the release date was like 1 week back but stores never received a copy of it or something to that event?

Heheh well I think I'll need a full and proper DSM IV analysis to determine my OCD level, but I'd self diagnosis myself between level 2 and 3. :D

What I want to know is when will LOTR be out on Blu-ray? One of my new Blu-rays has a nice ad for the set being out Nov 10, 2009, but then I googled online and saw it's been delayed til 2010. Booooo!

I think Jay has posted this somewhere in the thread and i made some sarcastic comment about Warner that by the time i see the super duper deluxe edition, i will probably see Final Fantasy XX released or something. So short answer, yes it has been sadly delayed. Why? Who knows. Some people on blu-ray.com started a poll to give to FS to have them release this in SB format and someone joked that it will be in Ironcase format if anything :lol:

I personally will probably not buy the first release because i know it will more than likely be a bare bones release. This trilogy is setup for a quatruple dip at least imo and knowing how cheap Warner is and how much they like to squeeze us for the money (ie refer harry potter), the first release will probably be disappointing. :(

Ive had this on the Front page for over 6 months now.. I got my austin powers collection at Inetvideo.ca a long time ago for just aroun $30 cdn. plus taxes. Their blu-ray section was sorta hidden, you had to search for it.

Everyone was caught up in the .com version.

Saw one copy at my local store but the plastic was ripped. I think I saw it at BB too.

only $4 different.. not worth my time to go and PM for $.40 savings. Good price for the $10 though esp for skynet edition.. now on the hunt for the german SB and put the skynet edition inside it lol

My heart breaks a little when I stare at the Amazon.com prices. Then I went out and got a US address to ship to. I feel better already :cheesygri

I browsed it. Prices are definitely cheap but not super cheap compared to what i paid when some of those titles were released. Only really good deals i thought were gladiator and braveheart.. the rest were only so so :D

Wow... good prices for some of the best BRs in my collection - with the exception of Witch Mountain, which I do not own nor ever will (puke). There are moments in Bolt where the scenery looks real (for example the opening pet shop sequence before the employee walks into frame).

Highly recommend Monsters Inc, Bolt, and Cars; even if you don't have kids :D
