hmmmmmmm...........

Has nothing to do with the transfer. Gremlins is just a dark, grainy, and hazy looking film. It was shot that way; partly to hide the effects, and partly because of the effects.

It's not really a film that lends itself to blu, but if you don't have the dvd, there's no reason not to get it. Until they go all out and do a restoration, it's not going to look any better.

Should be noted that all of the current Kubrick titles are being re-released in a boxset, and ACO is getting re-released separately.

Clockwork might be, since the O Lucky Malcolm documentary is being put on disc 2. Disc 1 may just have a new master(tho I too didn't think it would, or needed one).

[antoinedoinel]

Clockwork is easily the weakest of WB's Kubrick titles. Spartacus is a whole different story. At the very least, it's getting new special features, along with A Life in Pictures. Just the addition of that is worth the upgrade imo. Lovely doc.

Yes, the box is essentially another repackaging by WB, but it's cheaper than buying the titles individually. Really comes down to how many of the titles you already have, or how bad you want Barry Lyndon and Lolita.

Both will be released individually later as well.

I'd love the new features on ACO but no chance in hell I'm giving up my personalized Malcolm McDowell signed copy for anything.

I wouldn't either. I'm still clutching on to my Creative Design Arts DVD/CD soundtrack set, solely for the CD & packaging.

$7.99 x 5 = $39.95+tax

[thecardman23]

considering you were able to remember the list your posted. id say you have a pretty solid memory.

Correct. They had 2 sets of season 1.

I bought 31 of them which is how i remembered most of them, lol. The rest i remember from going through the bin.

[happyb]

I went to a GTA location. Nothing.

[Rhylliam]

The Gateway Superstore in Winnipeg also has this bin, but only has multiples of True Blood Season 1 - Disc 1... Which is kinda crappy. You sure the other stores had full seasons?

[bgggg2001]

Found 2 huge bins of previous viewed but was only DVD's
