Sadly, none of the above. I refuse to buy ANOTHER Special Edition of Princess Bride or CEO3K. The rest of them? Eh. I'm a party-pooper, I know. But there's a bunch of stuff out there now that I DO want. First and foremost, I want the season 1 & 2 box set for the TV series, Family. I'd also love to have the complete Lucky Louie and Angel Season 3.

As for what's upcoming, the big one for me is Flight Of The Conchords Complete First Season.

And I'll be excited when The Brave One comes out.

Of the older films I'm really looking forward to Close Encounters and Blade Runner.

Close Encounters will have three seamless branched versions of the film, from the first ever home video release of the original theatrical cut, and the re-edited 1980 special edition, to Spielberg's definitive director's cut as featured on the 1998 collector's edition.

Blade Runner The Four-Disc Collector's Edition includes everything from the 2-Disc Special Edition plus three additional versions of the film (1982 Theatrical Version, 1982 International Version, 1992 Directors Cut).

If I had lots of money to spend I would really like to get the 5 disc set of Blade Runner, but the SRP is near $80. But the packaging is cool.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 02 Oct 07 :: 03:16

I like Blade Runner a lot and I'd love to watch someone else's set. I just can't see spending that much. But if anyone ever gets it, I'm coming over to watch.

As for CEO3K, I prefer the original theatrical cut or the 1998 definitive director's cut. I never liked the 1980 "Special Edition". Guess I'll stick with what I've got.

Oh, you know what else I want? The Outsiders, The Complete Novel. That one has some really cool gooides. And a new edit with a new soundtrack. If anyone ever sees that one cheap, please let me know.

1401 comes out today. I am looking forward to the. And The Invisible of coarse!

Illinoisguy1 · 04 Oct 07 :: 22:38

I bought the Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer 2 disc set at Circuit City and also got their exclusive bonus dvd. I thought it was an ok "popcorn" flick, but nothing more. I liked the first one better though.

Next one I'll buy is Transformers: 2 disc set, but don't know from where yet. Wondering which store will have the best exclusives.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 04 Oct 07 :: 22:48

Yeah, but the Surfer looks great, doesn't he?

Illinoisguy1 · 04 Oct 07 :: 22:53

Yup, the FX are great and they really did a good job on the silver surfer. It sort of reminds me of T-1000 in Terminator 2.

I will say that the film is really more about the Silver Surfer than the Fantastic 4. They did leave it open for a sequel at the end.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 05 Oct 07 :: 01:19

Yeah, that's what I read. Which is what made me want to see it. The Surfer's cool.

Illinoisguy1 · 06 Oct 07 :: 01:24

I found out what exclusives some of the stores will have.

Looks like I'll get it from Target. The Circuit City exclusive is boring and the Best Buy toys looks really small and cheap to me. I've heard that Suncoast and FYE/Futureshop is supposed to have a Steelbook case but those will likely have been taken already by those that pre-ordered it.

Wow, they're going all out, huh? Making all that different stuff?

Illinoisguy1 · 06 Oct 07 :: 02:56

I was really hoping for an exclusive DVD, but it doesn't look like any store will have one.

Oh wait, actually Walmart will have a bonus DVD but it's some animated prequel or something and will likely only come with the one discer. I'm more into getting bonus DVDs, but that one doesn't interest me at all.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 06 Oct 07 :: 03:53

Yeah, me neither.

Illinoisguy1 · 11 Oct 07 :: 23:51

Here are some pics of the transforming Transformers case, this one is from Mexico but it's the same case as the Target exclusive.

Unfortunately, it looks like direct linking to these images isn't allowed. They don't show up for me.

Should work now.

Illinoisguy1 · 12 Oct 07 :: 20:56

Wow, I just got a $5 coupon from Target in the mail today because a Target store is opening in my town. Plus it looks like it'll be good at any Target store as there is nothing on the coupon such as "Coupon good only at "town name".

So I'll be able to take $5 off the Transformers DVD.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Oct 07 :: 20:59

I do love a bargain.

magicalturkey · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:07

Wait, Deb, are you actually gonna watch/buy Transformers?

TeeJay · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:18

If she does, I'm gonna strip naked and dance around in our office that way. There is no way in HELL that she will.

magicalturkey · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:21

Figured.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:22

LOL! Hell no! I was just congratulating Illinois and saying that I understand his excitement. I'd use that coupon on the "Family" box set I so desperately want.

magicalturkey · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:27

I don't like Justin Timberlake, you don't like Shia. At least Shia can act his way out of a shoe.

...

I need to stop being cranky after school.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 12 Oct 07 :: 21:35

Justin can too. You just don't know that yet. And again, I'm not defending the guy. I don't care for him. Never have and never will. But he's a damn decent actor.

For the record, I used to like Shia well enough. But when people started this crap of insisting that he and Chris are dead ringers, I felt like I was having the guy shoved forcefully sideways down my throat and I gagged. What can I say? Now the mere mention of his name gives me dry heaves.

And I don't wanna open this can of worms again, but you can't compare that guy to Chris. As I once posted on IMDb, he looks about as much like our beautiful boy as Vin Diesel looks like Helen Mirren.
