Just got Ice Age at Best Buy - Blu-ray Forum

BruceWayne · 03-03-2008, 12:20 AM

First time I have seen them put something out early, but got it and The Meltdown for $27.95 each, price-matched to Target's website. I was pleasantly surprised!

Congrats.

lol
the price match probably let you have it
usually it will flag that it hasn't been released yet so they can stop the sale...but the override for the price match allowed the override of the prerelease sale

Geez, my area seems to be the only place on the planet that doesn't put movies out early.

Think I'll move.

DeeChizzle · 03-03-2008, 12:45 AM

Two days people, it's only two more days! I mean congrats to the OP, but it's not like he found it a month early or something. I'm surprised if some of you have Christmas presents left under the tree when it's time to open them.

I was wondering if it would stop me or not. I am gonna watch in about 5 minutes, will let you know about the picture.

Yeah only two days early, but was still kind of neat

BLU for Blue · 03-03-2008, 12:53 AM

No I want a picture of you having it, proof. I dont believe you until you show it

Wherever you go don't move to the Bay Area because Best Buy's here don't release them early too.

My son is a big fan of Ice Age, I'd like to know if this is worth it.

Blu Titan · 03-03-2008, 01:01 AM

It is always nice to find an early release. Unfortunally, the only one I have ever found was "Shooter" a week early at my local Walmart. My BestBuy stores never have "early" releases.

ak808 · 03-03-2008, 01:12 AM

Yeah our bestbuy had gattaca and sleuth out on friday. Wasn't interested in them so I didn't pick them up though.

Chill, dude. I saw it at my local BB this afternoon in SoCal. It's out there.

IamNhobdy · 03-03-2008, 01:16 AM

He's not lying... I got my copy last night, but I have to go back to get the price match. I didn't want to risk it getting flagged because of a manager coming over to price match or anything.

Gattaca?! I wish mine had that early!

BruceWayne · 03-03-2008, 01:19 AM

Sorry pics kind of suck, don't know how to get a real clear shot of the picture on the TV, with flash looks good other than the giant glare spots, without just looks kind of weird, but should do for now.

Only watched about 5 minutes of each, picture looks about the same quality. The problem with the first looks like it is just a result of the source not being as good. Scrat has every hair rendered in the 2nd movie, but looks like they just did textures or something weird in the first.

Here's the case:

Here's what I think is a new Fox intro, haven't bought a Fox title in awhile so may not be, but I found it cool:

Here is The Meltdown:

Here is the first:

BruceWayne · 03-03-2008, 01:22 AM

I can try to do better pics, and more if anyone really cares. The sound so far is really good though, and other than the hair on all of the characters it looks good.
