I'll def buy No Country and I Robot. And as already pointed out by a lot of people. I too have learned Amazon is the best place to get the lowest priced new Blu's.

If you can wait a week or so you get no tax and free shipping too =] I get all my stuff from there now.

I am surprised nobody is picking "sleuth".
personnally, I think Michael Caine is a great actor

is the movie that bad?? (blind buy, never see it)

miked924 · 02-28-2008, 02:29 PM

Why buy all of them on the same day?? Everyone must have alot of time to just sit around and watch movies. It's not like they won't be available the week after

"Hitman" is that bad but you don't see that stopping all of these people from buying it the day it's released

. I never make blind buys... it just does not make any rational sense to me.

mikenike · 02-28-2008, 02:37 PM

Definitely getting on release: I, Robot, I Am Legend, and Enchanted.
Blind buys (or rentals--nothing for sure): No Country for Old Men.
Catalog or previously released: Initial D, A Knight's Tale.

March is definitely picking up the slowness of February and January. I kinda feel bad for my wallet. =/

FIDDYPOP · 02-28-2008, 02:37 PM

Dogma is the first then no country for old men... everything else

miked924 · 02-28-2008, 02:38 PM

I used to blind buy on dvd all the time and just ended up with alot of movies I'd never watch again. More selective now on blind buys now with blu ray...Hitman is def a rental, obviously people don't care about throwing away $28. Go out and buy a bottle of Jameson instead!

CheapChildren · 02-28-2008, 02:39 PM

No Country & Gattaca for me.

Right on.

nycomet · 02-28-2008, 02:42 PM

The only one from that list that I preordered from Amazon is I, Robot (along with I Am Legend which comes out the following week).

If ID4 looks anything like the Japanese import (got it back in January), you guys are in for a treat!

Same here...the rest can wait!

Beta Man · 02-28-2008, 02:51 PM

just "No Country" (blind) and ID4 (because it should look cool) for me....

maybe Gattaca when it's cheaper, as I can't say I remember much about the film, but know it's highly visual.

$19.99 is a fair price for Gattaca, unfair is the $28 for ID4 which they couldn't even carry over any of the special features of the 5 star dvd.

PVJAG · 02-28-2008, 03:19 PM

No Country for Old Men
ID4
Gattaca
Hitman
I Robot
Dogma

I'll be easily dropping $150. Oh well... BRING ON MARCH 11!!!

mr peepers · 02-28-2008, 03:35 PM

i know the date on this thread is for march 11th .... but i sure hope everyone isnt forgetting about ice age on the 4th. im personally super pumped to see this on blu after watching the second one.

as for the 11th....ouch.

ill be picking up no country, i robot and hitman for sure. possibly id4, not sure if i want to drop that kind of coin yet on a new catalog title.....

then the next week i am legend for sure.

damn....

kolasi · 02-28-2008, 03:43 PM

ill get...
id4
hitman
i robot

RickD · 02-28-2008, 03:54 PM

ID4
I, Robot
Gattaca

I might get 'Dogma' at a later date, but I am kind of tired of it from watching it too much in the past. I will probably get it eventually just to see Selma Hayek in HD.

The rest of the releases I haven't seen, and I don't blind buy. (No offense to blind people intended.)

This will be an expensive month. Between me, the wife, and the 3 kids, I think we all want what amounts to every release in March.
