Blue Thunder - Blu-ray Forum

Just out of curiosity, has anyone actually seen this available in any retail store? After trying Best Buy, F.Y.E., Barnes & Noble, Borders and a few smaller places I finally ordered it from Amazon. Are there going to be releases that are available only on-line?

I got my copy at Best Buy about two weeks after it's release, but haven't seen it there since. Its definitely worth hunting down. I just watched it in honor of the writer, Dan 'O Bannon, who passed away last week.

I checked Best Buy on Blue Thunder's original due date. Was told "Best Buy is not carrying it in this district." I go there every Tuesday, and they have had some of the same titles sitting there for months (unsold deluxe editions of Casablanca etc.) and tons of blockbuster titles but they skimp on catalog titles - they never got Trainspotting either, which I believe came out the same day.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

From IMDB:

"Just got the Blu-ray edition and noticed changes to the soundtrack. Like when Murphy tries to dodge Cochrane by banking behind the smokestack, music was added for some reason. I prefer the original way without music as at that point the action alone suspends you."

"The part where Cochran tells the control tower "thank you" when they deny him permission to take off but he does anyway is missing!"

Please, please, please, tell me it's just a dream gone bad!

I'm just reporting these two posts from IMDB. God only knows how much I love this movie. Too bad, they even got the PQ stellar but did those two mistakes! Hopefully, the posters are wrong.

Is this confirmed, or just some d!ck on IMDB?
