Re: pending sale at SAE...A few titles that I might bite on if the price is right
Leave Her to Heaven
Born Yesterday
The Blue Lagoon
Desiree
The Wayward Bus
Bite the Bullet
and perhaps Pal Joey

Blue Lagoon has a really beautiful transfer and is worth picking up. If I'm not mistaken, it and Wayward Bus were on the list last year, as was Leave Her to Heaven (low quantity - as has already been pointed out), so it's likely they'll be there again minus LHtH. I don't remember about the others.

Hoping the sale will cover last fall's releases... I passed on 3 titles that, if they are going to be included in the sale, I would buy at $20 each, The Dogs of War, Under Fire, and The Fortune. Other than a couple of sold-out titles I missed out on, that would finally get me caught up all the TT titles I want through the March releases.

My fingers crossed for the sale to include Funny Lady, Conrack, The Eddy Duchin Story

I can vouch only for Eddie Duchin, it's a beautiful transfer and great sound

Excellent. Everything I want is in there.

I think I'll get the three more recent Jimmy Stewart films (Man From Laramie, Two Rode Together, and Mr. Hobbs).

Can't go wrong with Jimmy Stewart. All 3 look excellent.

[StingingVelvet]

Tempted on the Oliver Stone films at $20 but still don't think they're anything I would re-watch a lot. Sleepless in Seattle I love and watch a lot but the picture quality is supposedly iffy and it's not a real HD required movie.

Thinking I might add Mindwarp to my Zardoz order. It's not great, but it has that 80's sci-fi cheese factor I love.

Poor video quality is the reason i'm not buying Cover Girl, but from the reviews I've seen Sleepless in Seattle appears to look pretty good. I think I'll be adding it during this sale.

And I wanted it so much (though i haven't seen the film).

Titles have been posted on Facebook. Some are on sale for $24.95, and many more at $19.99. Some of the British titles are on for $14.95, and 3 DVDs are on sale too.

[lefty23]

Going to probably pick up Picnic and Bell Book and Candle tomorrow as soon as the sale starts since they were both on the low quantity alert the last time it was posted and then make a second order later during the sale after I get paid.

[f451]

When's the sale start? I put a couple in the cart but the regular price shows up.

Heaven and Earth and Sleepless in Seattle have strong PQ presentations. You are missing out if that's the main reason you are skipping the releases.

I enjoyed the film but it's really a watch once kind of movie. I would rent it. It's very worth seeing.

If you don't get it you'll regret not getting it at the lower price, these thing have a way of gnawing at you. I don't know about iffy, all I know is it looked better to me.
