Who's buying what and from where on 9/18 - Blu-ray Forum

Wiz13688 · 09-17-2007, 05:43 PM

Just wondering what people have in mind and which retailer they usually goes to? Is it better to order online or for a few bucks more get it from a store?

Here's what I plan of ordering tomorrow:

Planet Earth
Fifth Element (re-master)

I'll probably get mine from Amazon since I have Amazon Prime and can get 2 days free shipping.

owa · 09-17-2007, 05:45 PM

I think most people like to order online to save a few bucks. I prefer buying locally and start with Best Buy. If they don't have what I'm looking for, I head across the street to Circuit City.

BStecke · 09-17-2007, 05:47 PM

I've got Smallville pre-ordered at Moviestop. I'll be picking up that and Superman: Doomsday (REALLY wish this was on Blu), and I'm thinking about ordering the Rock from Amazon UK.

tron3 · 09-17-2007, 05:50 PM

Amazon most likely. Everything I REALLY want most isn't available yet.

I suppose for the sake of blu I can order Planet of the Apes, and another title.

I want the Terminator series, but I am hoping for a trilogy pack when 3 comes out.

Manco · 09-17-2007, 05:52 PM

Deliverance - AMAZON Pre-Order
Other Titles - Sept 18 day-and-date direct purch from my local BB for back releases not already in my collection (specifically WB titles)

u_nick · 09-17-2007, 05:52 PM

I have Smallville preordered from Amazon, and Troy preordered from Warner Home Video, along with the Dirty Dozen and The Fugitive

DJeffries · 09-17-2007, 05:53 PM

A Few Good Men and We Are Marshall from Amazon.

Need to pick up critter food tomorrow and with Best Buy and Target in the same center as Petco will pick something else up. What will depend on stock.

koreyman · 09-17-2007, 05:54 PM

WALMART
Fantastic Four (blu)
Boston Legal 3
Married With Children seson 7
Family guy V5
Superman Doomsday
And maybe a couple more blu's if I see something that looks good

Best Buy probably (CC sux), Immortal Beloved (haven't been able to find it in B&M ANYWHERE near me), Replacement Killers.

- prob. also pick up latest "The Film Crew" title on DVD (s*&t cracks me up)

blukrank · 09-17-2007, 06:00 PM

I buy must of my High Def movies from Amazon.I think Amazon has the best prices.I too I have Amazon Prime and I love getting 2 day shipping for free.Sometimes I buy Blu-Ray discs from Best Buy,but I dont buy FOX tittles from Best Buy,no way I'm going to pay $34.95 when I can get it on Amazon for $27.99. Wal*Mart has good prices too on some of the new releases.But must of my Blu-Ray purchases are threw Amazon.I have some many movies pre order threw Amazon at the momment.It's going to be a great fall to have Blu-Ray.

Disco_And · 09-17-2007, 06:09 PM

I'm Buying US versions of Troy: Director's Cut, TMNT, Shooter and NIN: Beside You in Time, which are all region free

and for speed i'm getting them from Playusa.com around 3 days to ship to UK and a little bit longer but more choice Amazon.co.uk around 7-14 day to ship for US Blu-ray to the UK

as for UK Blu-ray i get them from www.sendit.com

jasoncarmony · 09-17-2007, 06:12 PM

We are Marshall, maybe Superman Returns, and Superman: Doomsday (wish for blu).

aygie · 09-17-2007, 06:28 PM

unforgiven
Big fish
Coming to America

I almost bought them the other day but remembered the buy-a-thon!

I can get unforgiven and Big Fish over here but thought i'd buy them through amazon.com to get the numbers up.

Blu-dock Saint · 09-17-2007, 06:30 PM

Troy
Layer Cake
RE: apocalypse
5th element remastered

Not sure where yet.

leftykt · 09-17-2007, 06:34 PM

I'm getting mine from Amazon:

The Replacement Killers
Lethal Weapon 2
Spider-Man: The High Definition Trilogy
The Untouchables

Palanthian · 09-17-2007, 06:36 PM

Probably just the Condemned for me. Want to see that pretty bad. Likely get it at Best Buy. I would buy more, but i gotta save me money for Oct.2nd. I want like everything released that day. >_>

OCTOBER 2nd is gonna be huge, I think I have 7 items pre-ordered for that day. As for the buy-a-thon:

Troy (pre-ordered from amazon)
and might pick up The Terminator at BB

Canada · 09-17-2007, 06:45 PM

I am not buying anything on the 18th, work. The money for Blu has to come from some where, but I think I am buying The Departed from Future Shop if it's still $ 28.

If you're looking at getting Superman Returns and you have a setup for uncompressed/lossless audio, they're reissuing Superman Returns with PCM and Dolby TrueHD, so you may want to wait.

Rob71 · 09-17-2007, 07:19 PM

I jumped the gun and bought GoodFellas at Best Buy on the way home from work. I'm planning on getting Troy, Blazing Saddles, Identity, and The Condemned(no smartass comments please

) from Amazon. I'll probably get their credit card and get 30% off. I may also pick up one or two at Wal-Mart later in the week.
