The Dream Team was a Best Buy exclusive at first and I paid $7.99 for it. I'm with you, The Paper is my most wanted from the batch.

That's true. Now that I think about it I remember it being around that same price. Ugh, now I'm getting worried. It'll usually give a description on amazon though if it's a BD-R. Look up White Girl and White Rabbit (2013) on amazon and you'll see what I mean underneath the price.

It may be too early but this and The Paper both state 1 single BD-50 vs. 1 BD-R 25 like Real Genius on this site.

I guess we just keep checking to see if more info is added.

I doubt these are BD-Rs. Since the first batch of randomly announced Universal catalog titles ("Baseketball", "Bowfinger", etc.) are BB exclusives, they will likely be sold in stores. As far as I know, stores don't carry BD-Rs or DVD-Rs because of the made on demand aspect.

Now Amazon says it's not available for order?

Yeah I don't know what's going on. I placed a preorder and received an email saying my expected delivery date is 9/7 but now the product page appears to be gone?

Amazon probably put up the pages to this Universal wave too early or something. I'm sure it'll be back up soon. Either the same page, or a new one for the product.

Same thing happened to me.
Does anyone know what's happened to this Pre-order?
The disc has disappeared from AMAZON.
Please let me know if you have any additional information.
Thanks!

I had the same thing happen to me with "The Paper" that is being released the same day. I called amazon about it and they said it will be available on the 5th for delivery on the 7th for me. Still kind of up in the air but that looks to be the case so far

The Digital Bits reported yesterday that this, Fletch Lives, The Paper and The Skulls were all going to be Amazon exclusives but it doesn't sound like any of them are going to make that initial Sept 5 street date. More info to come I'm sure.

Just so ridiculous with these exclusives. People can't find the ones that are supposed to be at Best Buy and now there is issues with the ones that are supposed to be with amazon. Just a giant cluster f***

I kinda hope it's postponed for a bit, I've got too many pre-orders going on anyway.

Well, you don't HAVE to buy it day 1. In fact, it'll probably be cheaper if you wait a bit.

True. But this is a day-one movie for me. So I'd get it. But if it's delayed....
know what I mean?

I'm assuming it's the same transfer as the UK version I imported. It looks good, but a bit digital.

I'd say there's a pretty good chance. 10 days until it's supposed release date and Amazon still doesn't have the product page back up. Not looking good for an early September release unless something changes in a hurry.

The difference between an Amazon exclusive and a Best Buy exclusive is we'll probably be paying twice as much for the Amazon exclusive (at least). The prices were high when they were up - if Amazon doesn't have Best Buy to follow, those prices won't be coming down.
