Warner 4 Film Favorites

[Emilio_B]

Oops! My mistake then.

[Brad1963]

These are now in-store. I saw a pallet in Burbank that had these and the previous sets. $19.99 each.

Indeed. At my local BBY there was this ''Warner'' cardboard display with the new ones and some of the old ones. I can finally watch the Final Destination series at the price range I wanted

Here's the Final Destination set SKU in case anyone else needs it: 1755579

Edit: I just went to the website and search for it with the SKU and it is not there. You might call CS and give them the number I posted above or go into a b&m and try your luck.

Does anybody knows if they fixed the Lethal Weapon pack? I was at BB today and I was afraid to pick it up and get the same crap.

[Me-Hostage]

Anyone been able to find the Final Destination using the SKU? Gonna pick up the Matrix and Batman sets next month, and would like to include the Final Destination set as well if I can find it.

I bought it last week and got Swordfish instead of Lethal Weapon 2. So it's not fixed.

All of these 4 film sets are on sale for $14.99 on Best Buy's site right now.

There's a display for them in Best Buy if you have one near you.

Just a heads-up, 10 of the 4-Film Favorites sets will be released widely on January 7th. This will include many of the BB exclusives listed in the op, plus new ones like a Leonardo DiCaprio 4 Film Favorites set, and another for "Intergalactic Films".

I'll be looking out for that one!

[DerpTrollington]

Mine didn't have them. In fact, they didn't have much of anything. I hadn't gone to Best Buy in ages and knew the physical media section was being scaled down, but holy lord... there's nothing left. BDs, DVDs and CDs are now in one, sad little section off to the side. Where they once stood is a giant array of showroom tables with tablets and a bunch of other crap. Not sure what things are like at your stores, but I've never seen a Best Buy with such a lowly offering of movies, period.

Now the question is, is this indicative of sluggish media sales, or a desperate Best Buy circling the drain?

[MifuneFan]

Here's what's included with the 3 newly added titles being released in the wide-release wave on January 7th

Deep Space Collection (Lost in Space / Red Planet / Mars Attack / Galaxy Quest)
Fantasy Adventure Collection (The Last Airbender / Hugo / The Golden Compass / Inkheart)
Leonard DiCaprio Collection (Shutter Island / Blood Diamond / The Aviator / Body of Lies)

Full wave is in the op

[Edword]

I don't have any of those DiCaprio movies. That should be a good buy

[Me-Hostage]

I might pick up the Deep Space set. I like Mars Attacks and Galaxy Quest. I've seen bits of Lost In Space.

Still need to get the Matrix, Batman and Final Destination sets. Maybe next month. I already spent $100 for the month on Blu-rays alone.

Best Buy accidentally sent me the Lethal Weapon 4 film favorites set this past week. Wondering what to do with it. I already have the real collection in my library, so it doesn't even benefit me to have this too. Does Best Buy accept returns without receipts during the Holidays? I'd love to exchange it for the Deep Space set or something.

Well, technically, it was a gift, but ...

The studios are still making a reasonable profit (lower than the DVD glory days, but still a profit) off of BDs, but Best Buy probably not so much. My local store has pushed their physical media to the back corner, too. BB has had their share of financial problems, so I wouldn't be completely surprised if they eventually go the way of Circuit City. Enjoy the discounts and sales while they last. And be thankful that Internet retailers will still exist after the demise of brick and mortar.

The BB near where I work has slim down the physical media section significantly. But the BB store near where I live still has a big section. So, not all BBs are doing this; just select stores. Not sure why...

Why wouldn't they exist? Internet retailers are the main reason why brick and mortar is going extinct...

The Deep Space collection is tempting, with the exception of Red Planet. Only watched it once and don't remember anything too memorable about it (my, at the time, crush on Carrie Anne Moss, not withstanding).
