Problem Child 2 (1991)

[JohnnyF]

Are these retailer exclusives? I'm not seeing any mention of the other films in the batch aside from Rocky & Bulwinkle...

[Blaze_Chamberlin]

I believe these drop in price rather quickly as well.

No, all of the preorders are live on Amazon. I dont think these will be sold in physical stores at all.

Not me. I loved the sequel back in the day, but its just ok to me now. Most of the gags aren't as funny to me now.

Eh, nothing you can't see at Wal-Mart on a daily basis. That kid creeps me out.

This is excellent news... both this and "The Wizard."

Agreed. My only disappointment is that "Cloak & Dagger" wasn't also announced instead of Rocky & Bullwinkle. This seemed like the perfect opportunity since The Wizard and C&D were paired together on one of the old DVD double features.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I am so excited.

[LifeNeedsMovies]

Yes finally! Love love that movie.

[Worship.my.wreck]

This reminds me I still have to buy the first one. But I'll definitely pick this one up also.

That hasn't been my experience, especially when they are exclusive to amazon. When Best Buy gets them, they tend to be $7.99 within a month (see the batch with PROBLEM CHILD 1, THE BURBS, ED TV...), but when amazon gets them, they often only go as low as $19.99 (witness the last batch of Universal discs - including THE PAPER and FLETCH LIVES).

Hopefully these won't be exclusives and amazon will have to stay competitive and drop prices.

None of those have been Amazon exclusives and there is no reason to think these will be, either. Best Buy's pricing for the last round of Universal releases is the same as Amazon's (Amazon probably matched Best Buy).

You're comparing Best Buy's Universal timed exclusives to these later Universal catalog releases that seem to be more like Universal's version of WB's "Archive" releases. I wouldn't expect them to show up in stores and I doubt they'll go lower than $19.99 any time soon.

Nippy, they're selling you for a nickel?!

Best release of the year, hands down.

[Dudley Dawson]

This and the original deserve proper special editions from Shout.

Fantastic release for sure, but The Wizard would like a word with you!

I will never understand people who do this. If you didn’t like the movie, don’t waste your money! This is why I won’t buy the Indiana Jones box set and why I only own the first two Blade movies.

Amazon is a retailer.

19.99 is ridiculous for a bare bones catalog title

[Bradsdadg]

I ended up waiting a little while and Problem Child and The Babe fell to buy 1 get 1 free @ $7.99 at Best Buy. I'm planning on getting this and the Wizard when they come out~Not for $20 but wouldn't mind them at $10 each.

When Problem Child , For love of the Game, BASEketball etc.. all came out , they were 7.99ea buy 2 get 1 free, with in-store pick up 6.99ea. I grabbed most of them, I wish Best Buy would do the same with these newer universal releases.
