Unless it's retailing at $5 it's a ripoff, and I'd argue the $5 would still be too steep.

Thanks for offering nothing to the conversation.

Can't wait to get this. Huge fan of the series, and enjoyed the most recent chapter a lot.

I have not seen this one at the movies because I'm waiting to get this on BD and save some money. I have all 5, and I might as well get the 6th one.

Threadcrapping at its finest. Posts like this should be deleted. This is utter nonsense.

I enjoyed the sixth one a lot.

I will be picking it up for sure. Last one I saw was 4 which I didnt care for much, but just a couple weeks ago we went to see 6 and watched 5 before going to the theatre, both were much better than #4 was, and I was surprised how good 6 was story wise.

I haven't seen any of them in the theater, but I own the first 5 on blu. This will also likely be a day 1 purchase for me.

For those that have seen VI, how does it compare to V? (no spoilers please) I really liked III and IV, but I was let down in V. Maybe it'll be different for me if VI ties into V the way IV tied into III, but I've watched V several times and just can't get into it.

IMO VI is the best one after the first.

Ya. I agree. VI is also rated the second highest on Rotten Tomatoes.

Indeed I saw it and the series has gotten worse since the end of the first one.

Let me guess, you though V was amazing also even though more then half of it was flashbacks? That's fine that you like terrible movies but don't attempt to hate on someone who doesn't. Why do you think it's for sale January? Because it absolutely bombed because most people weren't stupid enough to continue getting ripped off.

Why do you keep seeing them if you haven't liked the newer ones.... Anyways I admit I was dissappointed with V, but I thought VI really energized the franchise again and I will definately be picking this one up.

Om, I question your taste in movies. First, of all you threadcrap on a Saw thread which was actually a DECENT Saw flick. If Saw is not your cup of tea, then do not post here - it's that simple. You made your point quite rudely to the Saw fans.

Second, there is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with flashbacks in a film. Look at "Milk" which is told in flashbacks. It was an Oscar winning script and a great film.

I don't appreciate being called "stupid" because I paid hard earned money to see this film on day one in the theater, so you can gladly take a step back. It's on sale in January to capitalize on profits since most of a film's money is made through home video sales.

You need to get your facts straight and quit stepping on people who like this film.

holy crap, i was reading what others posted based on what you said....i didn't even look high enough to see it was directed @ me.

what's wrong w/flashbacks?? to me, if they can make the movie intersting and move forward by telling it in flashbacks, alright, makes the movie interesting.

so u didn't like the movie, ok, u don't need to come in a thread like this and crap all over it. based on what others have posted, it has fans on this forum....i'm one of them.

i've actually enjoyed all 5 of the previous ones, yeah, some more than others, but still.

and i'm pretty sure every single one of the previous movies were released on dvd/blu in January when they came out in theaters in Oct. they've been following that pattern for the last couple.

keep on stepping. b/c opinions like yours don't add ANYTHING to the discussion.

and from looking @ your collection, u don't seem to have a problem w/flashbacks since u own memento.

I would disagree majorly with that. In fact, I think the original is the weakest film now.

Yes, it sets everything up for the films that follow. Bui it's slow because of it.

I frankly admire the series for it's story and depth. Each film adds to the tapestry of the series. It's pretty impressive to see a Thriller/Horror film have such a rich and adheared to continuity 6 films in. Usually it's jumped the shark by now. And I'm happy to keep plunking down my cash everytime one gets realeased. I love how characters grow and evolve, and each chapter opens up the story more and more. Jigsaw has gone from a fairly one-dimensional character into a villian you can actually feel for. His motivation is entirely justified, it's his apprentices that go the wrong way. Which I think is kinda cool, to make you feel for the villain.

Also, it's available for sale in January cause the window from theater to home is shrinking.

Yep. We're all here to support blu rays and thread crappers like this guy take money away from it. If you dont want to buy the movie, just say you're not interested. Btw, when the hell have you ever seen a blu ray for $5? cause we all would like to be in this deal for sure.

I got Kill Bill Volume 1 for my Dad for 5 bucks. But, it was a mislabeled price on Best Buy's part.
