Bond on blu. The final 9! - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

roy neary · 09-27-2012, 03:26 PM

I decided to give FOX "customer service" another call now that the 6 titles are shown in 2 flyers as well as on the FS website and they STILL were showing no release info for ANY of the 9! And then she says "Oh, they are on the Future Shop website". HELLO... have I been talking to myself previously? I mean, how inept can these guys be??? Anyway, she said she would look into it and get back to me. If anything comes of this I'll post it here. Ugh.

Somebody has to be selling those last 3 titles here... don't they???

Yea, it's just a question of who!
My money's still on Walmart

That's sad Walmart Canada did not publish the 3 Bond exclusives that Walmart USA will carry. I guess Canadians will have to wait for next Tuesday to see if the titles are in Walmart stores.

What is FS & BB price per disc roy neary??

$9.99 each and they come with $10 Movie Money to see Skyfall. So not too shabby.

I called my local Wal-Mart in Toronto and spoke with a guy who was actually kind of helpful. He went into the back to check their stock of what's going out tomorrow and he could find NO Bond blu-rays. He said that the person who basically runs the show there (as far as video goes) would be in tomorrow morning and hopefully we'll able to find out more then.

If you do have luck at your Wal-Mart let us know!

S370 · 10-02-2012, 12:24 AM

Yes, let us know. ^^ that's unfortunate news for us Canadians, roy neary ^^
I also called my local Walmart, but they had no information!?!

In the USA:

WAL-MART
Goldeneye
Diamonds Are Forever
Octo*****

BEST BUY
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
The Spy Who Loved Me
You Only Live Twice

TARGET
Tomorrow Never Dies
The Living Daylights
A View To A KIll

In Canada, both Best Buy and Futureshop will carry the above Best Buy USA and Target USA titles, but which retailer in Canada would carry the remaining Bond Walmart USA titles?

It's gotta be Walmart Canada!!?!?!??!

nmycon · 10-02-2012, 02:17 AM

This is getting pretty silly.

These catalog Bond titles are a pretty big deal. Maybe not as big as Star Wars or Jaws (in general), but it's big enough that people will be pretty upset if those three titles are not available in Canada tomorrow.

It's James Bond for crying out loud, how could something like this slip through the cracks for the Canadian release?

PBR · 10-02-2012, 01:19 PM

Not looking good guys! Just got back from my local Walmart and they had nothing on the remaining three

Update: Just got off phone from another Walmart. Nothing is even listed.
I'm at a loss!

roy neary · 10-02-2012, 01:35 PM

Yup... Wal-Mart has nothing in their system according to the guy I just spoke with. This is ridiculous. And the fact that FOX doesn't even know what the hell is going on is pathetic.

S370 · 10-02-2012, 01:44 PM

Totally stupid. I was hoping to pickup Goldeneye today.

So maybe there's a delay in getting the remaining titles to Canadian Walmart stores? Not sure if this is a possibility.

I think I read that all Bond blu-ray titles will be available at all stores in early 2013. Anyone else recall reading this?

Looks like we're gonna have to wait a few months longer.

roy neary · 10-02-2012, 01:50 PM

It's the other 2 that I want... Diamonds & Octo***** -- I've never been much of a fan of the Dalton and Brosnan movies.
I wish it was the US Target batch we were missing as I could wait to add AVTAK to my collection

PBR · 10-02-2012, 02:44 PM

Oh my! No one including Fox have a clue what's going on!
HMV does have the six Best Buy and FS has but nothing on the the others, so much for the exclusive
As for a mass release it is indeed Spring 2013

I really wanted Diamonds are Forever, bad!

nmycon · 10-02-2012, 03:50 PM

How does something like this even happen?

They just "forget" about finding a retailer to carry the remaining 3 titles?

There's always importing I suppose...

Sky_Captain85 · 10-02-2012, 03:54 PM

Future Shop had -
You Only Live Twice
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
The Spy Who Loved Me
A View to a Kill
The Living Daylights
Tomorrow Never Dies

$9.99 each with movie cash towards Skyfall.

S370 · 10-02-2012, 04:40 PM

Just read in the "50 Years of James Bond!" thread that the Walmart Exclusives will not be available on store shelves until Oct. 9th - next week, at least in the US. Although there are other posts that state the 007 exclusive blu-rays are available already.

So, us Canadians will need to wait for Walmart Canada's flyer for next week....

nmycon · 10-02-2012, 04:51 PM

Then there's also the Oct. 23rd date that the re-releases of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace hit stores on.

Maybe the rest of the Canadian releases are timed to come out with these...

So perhaps it's a 3 week wait... who knows?

I take comfort in knowing that I'll be watching either On Her Majesty's Secret Service, The Spy Who Loved Me or You Only Live Twice tonight, while the majority of my American friends cannot

roy neary · 10-02-2012, 04:53 PM

Picked up YOLT, OHMSS, TSWLM & AVTAK at Best Buy this morning for $9.99 each with the Movie Money. They were still not showing on the BB website this morning but they were in store. That's funny about HMV (non-exclusives)... how much were they selling them for?

roy neary · 10-02-2012, 05:06 PM

I'm not holding my breath for a release of these three on the 23rd. Amazon.ca has Casino and Quantum listed for release then but that's it. Maybe we'll get lucky with this Wally-mart Oct. 9 date but I'm thinking that we're screwed.

It just doesn't make sense... If they're WM exclusives and WM isn't going to carry them up here then why not let BB & FS have them??? Well at least I don't have to actually go into Wal-Mart now
