Damn you Evilbore.

Every week I check out the Best Buy flyer to see what deals are going on. Every other week there's 1 or 2 movies I want. I bought the Taxi Driver and Robocop special editions a month ago for 25 bucks on Amazon and I thought it was a great deal. I haven't even watched either of them yet. Now Best Buy is selling those - and more special editions - for 9 bucks each. Memento and Dr. Strangelove here I come. Thinking about also picking up Serenity. Liked the TV show a lot, and I haven't seen the movie.

You're no longer allowed to talk shit about The Big Lebowski to me again. Ever.

Me, I don't really go in for possessions any longer. I have a bunch of money in my bank and am almost debt free, though. So I've got that going for me.

I only buy movies I love and have high replay value. I could watch Goodfellas a couple times a month. Sin City is the type of movie I can put on while I cook/clean up/etc

Anything more than $15 for a dvd is too much nowadays, considering how quickly the DVD prices drop. I myself haven't bought a dvd since I started buying HD-DVDs and Blu-rays.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #17 on:** December 02, 2007, 04:34:46 PM »

I did mean 25 bucks for both.

I can't help myself when Blu Ray sales come in, and I hated buying DVDs. I own like 14 Blu Rays now.

I bought some component cables and DVDs for the first time ever this past week.

Ichirou · « **Reply #21 on:** December 02, 2007, 08:05:42 PM »

I own hundreds of DVDs so I feel for you, dude. I'm hooked on buying older catalog releases from Warner Bros. and obscure shit from Blue Underground/Anchor Bay especially. Still need to pick up the Mondo documentary set.

LOTR Extended Editions were $12.99 at Best Buy last week -- kind of hard to pull the trigger when HD versions are probably right around the corner, but the free Golden Compass ticket inside is like an $8 value anyway.

Quote from: TVC 15 on December 02, 2007, 05:18:12 AM

I own everything mentioned in this thread!

But you didn't get them for nine bucks!

Serenity Collector's Edition is $8.99 at Best Buy and Amazon. I picked up one for myself today and one for a gift......probably the least painful double-dip I've suffered.

Shawshank Redemption SE is also $9 at Best Buy.
