Picked this up at Wal-Mart for $11.

Already own LW4 and the theatrical versions of 1 & 2. Never got around to buying LW3 at all or the Director's Cuts so this was very good.

What's also good is that they are all in Widescreen.

Some of the "Family" films in this '4 Film Favorites' series are only in Full Screen.  Don't know why WB thinks families only want Full Screen or those that like Family Films want Full Screen over Widescreen, but no thanks to those.

Yup and the SRP is $39.99. Even the pre-order price is around $30. I'll likely wait till it comes down in price.

I must be one of the few around, but I've never seen Lion King. I bought it because I know it's OOP and goes for well over $20 on Ebay. I hope it's good.

As for Mary Poppins, I have the original bare-bones release from 1998 or so, but never got around to buying the 2 disc set. I couldn't pass up an unopened copy for just $5. I think Best Buy had it on sale a few months ago for $15. I'm glad I waited.

#1355 Re: Square Eyes » Post your recent DVD purchases » 05 Nov 07 :: 20:10

Just got these from a used dvd store. Each was $5.

Then I bought this one from a charity garage sale for $2.50. Didn't notice it was Full Screen until I got home, but oh well.

#1357 Re: Chris On Screen » Alpha Dog (STRONG LANGUAGE & ADULT CONTENT) » 31 Oct 07 :: 16:00

3 actors from Alpha Dog were named among the Starpulse's Top 10 Underrated Celebrities.

Olivia Wilde is an actress that not many people know. However, if you ask them who played Marisa Cooper's first, and only, girlfriend on Fox's "The OC," some light bulbs may go off. She first started off on the short-lived TV series "Skin." She has appeared in two movies: "Alpha Dog" and "Turistas" and starred in the short-lived, and one of the best series that year, "The Black Donnellys." Currently Wilde is appearing as fellowship finalist Thirteen on Fox's "House." Her stint on "House" should give her a boost in Hollywood.

Ben Foster has been in the movies since 1996 and is finally getting some recognition for his work. Though the movie "Alpha Dog" was a dud, Foster received a lot of recognition for his role as Jake Mazursky, the brother of the boy who was kidnapped and killed and won a Young Hollywood Award. Foster has appeared in other movies: "Hostage," "The Laramie Project," "3:10 to Yuma" and "30 Days Of Night." Foster has also received several nominations for his role as Russel Corwin in the series "Six Feet Under." Foster has one movie in the works.


Emile Hirsch is a relatively unknown actor but is starting to get recognition after his stand-out performance in "Into The Wild," in which Sean Penn snatched him up for the role. Next, Hirsch can add action credits to his resume when he appears in the anticipated film "Speed Racer." Hirsch is proving that he can do just about anything, and he's here to stay.

Meet the Robinsons was cute, but the first part sort of drags a little. And the T-Rex was in it for only a few moments. I wanted more of him. The best character was the villian. Which by the way was really easy to figure out who he really was from the beginning. It does get a little sappy towards the end.

I liked Spider-Man 3 more than #2. The first part of the film is a little slow and it's a little goofy at times with Peter Parker being cool with the women and thinking he's all that. But once Venom comes on screen it really picks up and the finale is more better than #2. I was surprised that they killed off a major character though, but anything is possible in these films so he/she could come back some how.

#1359 Re: Square Eyes » Post your recent DVD purchases » 30 Oct 07 :: 17:31

Just got the 3-Disc Widescreen Deluxe Edition from Target of Spider-Man 3.

This gave me some very disturbed thoughts, Harvey Korman in drag as a cooking show host.

And here's Luke with just a tad too much makeup on.

The best thing about it was the cartoon segment.

Then we get the exciting ending.

Haven't seen it either. Found the pic on the net and I sort of like how that device is keeping his eyes open. Sort of how I feel like sometimes.

Anyway. I just got the Starbucks Best of Saturday Night Live '06/'07. Got it off of E-Bay. Plus inside was a bonus disc of an episode of 30 Rock (which I haven't seen).

#1363 Re: Square Eyes » Post your recent DVD purchases » 23 Oct 07 :: 21:37

I'm fairly sure I answered that before, but it's Nicholas Cage from the movie 'Next'.

#1364 Re: Square Eyes » Which upcoming DVD releases are you looking forward to the most? » 23 Oct 07 :: 09:51

Another DVD release I'm looking forwards to is Perfect Strangers: Seasons 1 & 2 that comes out in early February 2008.

#1365 Re: Chris On Screen » Alpha Dog (STRONG LANGUAGE & ADULT CONTENT) » 22 Oct 07 :: 15:39

I found this on the net and it looks like the UK release got 4 postcards with the DVD.

Just wondering if anyone has scans of these postcards.

#1366 Re: Chris On Screen » Freddy vs. Jason (alternative title: Crap On A Stick) » 21 Oct 07 :: 18:20

Just got back from CC and got the Freddy vs. Jason DVD.

#1367 Re: Square Eyes » Post your recent DVD purchases » 21 Oct 07 :: 18:19

Just got back from Circuit City and picked these up for $4.99 each.

Figures that Circuit City would have had Predator on sale for $6.99 this week. Oh well, it's only a few bucks and I wanted it for awhile.

#1368 Re: Square Eyes » Transformers » 21 Oct 07 :: 13:41

Look at how many DVD versions this guy bought.

I only bought the Target transforming case.

There is a funny behind the scenes footage (Easter Egg) of them filming a scene where a lady gets her dress ripped off.

#1369 Re: Square Eyes » Post your recent DVD purchases » 21 Oct 07 :: 10:23

Don't get Bravo, so no haven't seen that. Neither have I seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

I got the Predator: 2 disc Widescreen Edition. Seems that for some reason most stores are only carrying the new 1 disc Lenticular cover edition. Paid about $15 for it. Brand New from Meijer.

Then I got these 2 seasons of The Simpsons at a garage sale for $10 each. Both in perfect condition.

The Asian guy is from Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, Bones will be played by Karl Urban, Scotty is the guy from Hot Fuzz, Kirk is Chris Pine.

Edit: It's Karl Urban, not Keith Urban. Sorry about that.

#1373 Re: Square Eyes » In Praise of Chris's Colleagues » 17 Oct 07 :: 18:30

Here's the cast of the new Star Trek film, starring Alpha Dog co-star Anton Yelchin.

#1374 Re: Chris On Screen » The Invisible » 17 Oct 07 :: 18:06

How quickly they drop the prices on DVDs these days, it'll probably be about 6 months or so when it'll be at $10.

#1375 Re: Chris On Screen » The Invisible » 17 Oct 07 :: 16:53

Sorry, while I like the general idea of the film I can't see any reason to pay $20+ on the DVD, so I'll wait till it gets really cheap before I buy it.
