Absolutely without a doubt day 1 for me. I can't wait to see this.

It certainly looks rather good. I'll more than likely rent it via On-Demand and should I like it, I'll purchase it.

Sucks I wasn't able to see this in the SUMMER. Whats the point now

Great movie, saw it in the theater, and can't wait to watch it again on blu-ray.

Here's the artwork for the movie and the special features list.

Can't wait to get this on Blu-Ray, but I don't think I like that artwork very much.

Pretty sure I wasn't given a chance to see this in theaters. Sweet distribution there.

Saw this today, and I really enjoyed it. Nick Robinson gave a great performance, Nick Offerman was hilarious as usual, and the cinematography was solid. There were several beautiful shots, worth watching for that alone.

I wasn't a huge fan of the theatrical poster, even less impressed with the artwork for the blu-ray. I understand it's a bit of an ensemble cast but I'd still like to see Nick Robinson, Gabriel Basso and Moises Arias alone on the cover.

Same here. Never showed up in my entire state.

I really wanted to see it but it didn't open here. I'm surprised it only did a bit over 1 Million at the Box Office. I thought it would be good for at least 4 Million, if not 8 or 9.

Will for sure check it out. I really liked the poster a lot but I understand why they wouldn't use that for the Blu-ray art. They're trying to attract people to it with the ensemble cast, which is smart. More people would check it out that way.

Decent film, definitely, but not one I need to own.

I prefer the more serious and uncomfortable third act to the more comic first two, but I have heard others say completely the opposite.

Just got done watching this and I was blown away. Finally a great film about male friendship with actual emotions. I thought the soundtrack was odd but great at the same time. Alison Brie had a nice little role as well, definitely different from her work on Community. I can't wait to own this.

I can't believe it's one week to release date and Amazon still has this listed as $28.99.

While you would think it would have drifted lower, if none of the major three retailers have it listed for cheaper, there's no incentive for Amazon to drop it right now. Best Buy doesn't even have it in their database for their website.

With that said, I plan on at least renting this next week. If I decide to just wait, then I'll blind buy it down the road. No matter how good it is, this should go for under $20 on release day. What it will be on release day, who knows, but I'm not expecting a good price given that this isn't going to be in any ads next week.

Not even a DVD or digital copy to go with it either.

Amazon's $28.99 price tag is ridiculous. BestBuy.com has it for $22.99 (still too much since it's blu only).

Walmart has it for $32.38! Does anybody have it cheaper than Best Buys price?

[rajeevalone]

I almost forgot about this one..

Even worse, Canada's not even getting this Blu-ray, just the DVD. Amazon.ca is selling the import from the US for a non-affordable $38
