Flashbacks of a Fool - Blu-ray Forum

dcremuno · 05-20-2010, 05:47 PM

Hey guys, just wondering why the release dates everywhere online, including BR.com list Flashbacks of a Fool as releasing on May 25, 2010....

I picked up a copy at Best Buy on May 7th, so I'm wondering, whats the deal here?

It was def. in a BR case, like the photo shows, but this description reads DVD. Any ideas?

Sorry I can't help directly with this,but sometimes stores don't strictly follow releasedates.Maybe a storeowner screwed up?

Yeah, I picked one up last week for $6.99 at Best Buy. Thought it was decent. Craig shows some decent acting chops during his half of the film. I was happy with my purchase.

I considered picking it up when I saw it at BB for that price, but since I couldn't find a review I didn't.

Yeah, just makes me wonder how reliable these release dates are????

I bought mine on May 20 at BB for $6.99. I don't think they were violating any release dates I just think the online release date for this Blu-ray are wrong.

I've noticed the same thing with the release dates for Eddie Murphy's Trading Places/Coming To America Combo Pack. I bought this in Jan 2009, yet it was just "released" on May 18, 2010. May be the packaging is different or something?

Really liked this film, was going to pick it up at Best Buy today along with True Blood, but they couldn't seem to locate the three copies they had. Noticed that BestBuy.com and Amazon.com have different covers for the Blu-ray... can anyone verify if there is any difference in the two apart from the cover ?

Edit: Nevermind. Amazon has changed their cover.
