JTK · 01-23-2007, 01:28 PM

Yes!

Now: Anyone want to take bets on how many times they'll see the "We're sorry, this item has been delayed" message?

phranctoast · 01-23-2007, 01:35 PM

I was very happy to find out that neither hitchhikers guide, nor saw 3 were delayed from amazon. Resident Evil Apocolypse however.............

Guinness7 · 01-23-2007, 02:37 PM

Not a bad price either

blitz6speed · 01-23-2007, 03:05 PM

Thanks, got my order in.

Not at all. Expecially if you got in on the amazon deal a month or so back were if you buy three blu ray movies at one time, all your blu ray movies for a year will be 10% off. I get the movie for 21.56 and theres no shipping cost.

Why isn't this showing up on the DVDwars site? But the HD-DVD is?

BD should be even further in the lead.

Josh · 01-23-2007, 03:28 PM

I had to think about this title for a while, but I did pull the trigger. I saw this in the theaters and I found it entertaining - but I couldn't decide if this was one of those titles that I could watch over and over. Of course, when I first say "Kings of New York" I said the same thing, and I must have watched that at least 3 times already.

Babel is going to have to be NetFlixed.

Just got added!

Preorder placed.

I can see starting in February that things are going to be getting pretty expensive month by month, in terms of titles.

Gee, that's a really tough "problem" to have: Too many titles to choose from every month.

Is it any good. Never heard of, but iguess thats explained with "independents".

Princess Bride shouldnt be 27 bucks. I love movie, but since its older im hesitant on its PQ. Ill have to wait..

Josh · 01-23-2007, 06:46 PM

I doubt The Princess Bride is coming out. It was delayed indefinitely a while back, and I think Amazon just hasn't updated their system.

So far, I haven't seen the "delay" message on that, but it won't surprise me if several of these slip. Oh well...

And yeah, at some point, make a point of buying Chronos on BD for sure.

CHRONOS, the quintessential large format film, is now on DVD in an extraordinary new digitally restored and re-mastered Special Edition. One of the hallmark titles in the canon of special venue film presentations, CHRONOS imparts a unique vision of our world – the first non-verbal, non-fiction motion picture filmed in time-lapse photography. Presented as a visual symphony in seven movements, CHRONOS embarks on an unprecedented cinematic journey across the worlds of natural beauty and manmade monuments, as it explores the essence of time. And now, for the first time, CHRONOS is presented on home video with all the awe and splendor of its original theatrical release in IMAX theaters.

I'm an absolute sucker for time-lapsed stuff. Always have been. Check out the trailer!

Sooooo cool! And spectacular music (especially the BD soundtrack).

Marie Antoinette was available for pre-order through Amazon for a few weeks. Now it is not available any longer.

Plus, my Amazon 10% discount was available for BeerFest but not for Departed. Even though it is a Blu-Ray movie.

Petra · 01-24-2007, 12:16 AM
