Shout getting to release the big 3 franchises would be pretty neat even if I think Shout overprices their releases

I didnt mind paying full sticker for that F13 box. its super cool and I'm glad I did (even though I know full well I'll replacing at least a handful of the with UHD's sometime in the future. Probably just Parts 3,4,6 and 7).

The first set is going for over $900. The reality is I'm losing out on $900 because I refuse to give up Lawrence of Arabia, which is pretty dumb because there's a digital version available in 4k that I probably should be happy to settle for. And yet...

It's selling for about $300. No single 4k disc is worth anywhere near that much to me, but to each his own.

Target currently has a buy 2 get 1 free sale going on for most DVD/bluray/UHDs and there does not seem to be a upper limit on how much you can get free. Briefly had the LotR 4k set, Mission Impossible 4k set, and Kubrick 4k set in my cart and it will give me $80 off the total. Sale goes through 10/16.

Has anyone had issues returning broken movies to Best Buy? I ordered a brand new DVD box set from them recently and one of the discs was dislodged during shipment and scratched to hell. I started a return, sent the set back, and then today I get it sent back to ME in the mail by Best Buy, with a letter telling me that they can't accept the return because I opened it. This is insane—how am I supposed to assess the damage without opening it? Quite the scam they've got going on, with that as their policy.

A lot of the wage slaves at lovely big box stores don't give a poo poo and will just do the exchange. Half they time they don't even care if you have the receipt.

Spatulater bro! posted:I got my first DVD on May 14, 2000 and I've been collecting ever since. So when I browse through my collection it's like a visual history of how my tastes have evolved over time. Putting my DVDs in a binder would be like putting a piece of myself... in a binder? I dunno. Ultimately you have to decide how much stuff you keep, unless you're a hoarder that keeps everything - or you live in a mansion, I guess. I have a two-room flat. I still have my CDs in boxes in the attic, but they'll go to a 2nd hand shop if I ever have to move again.

Boywhiz88 posted:It’s absurd. Is it a window they have to leave open? Rights issues? Lack of will? They released Bridge on the River Kwai 4k so I don't know what logic they could possibly be using to not release Lawrence unless yea maybe there's a rights issue. I mean, sure, I get not wanting to release it until 6 months or maybe even a year after the Columbia Classics set, because you don't want to undercut that but those sets are all gone, it's not like they're still trying to sell those. Anyone watch the Green Knight UHD that came out yesterday? I picked it up but won't be watching it until after October.

I actually haven't seen it yet, I just blind bought it because by all accounts it's a visually stunning film that seems like it would be amazing on UHD. But yea, I'll probably watch it this week then if it qualifies as horror or at least horror adjacent.
