I do the Disney Movie Club because I'm dumb and also somehow a boomer in my 30s. I just got an email from them saying that they're putting out A Goofy Movie and An Extremely Goofy Movie on bluray exclusive for members. The price is "24.99", but for members it's $9.98 each film, but again, you have to be a member to even see the page, let alone order it.

I was about to join Disney club. The 4 for $1 buck is a good deal on the marvel and classics I don’t own. Once I sign up, will I be able to grab the goofy movies still? Really want those on Blu-ray!

No one needs Doctor Who season 12.

I mean the 12th doctors seasons. Not the 13th doctors seasons (which I already own, along with Tenants run and the first two of smiths, but am missing seasons 7, 8, 9, 10) their all at least $40 bucks. What the hell

Just bought Tenet without seeing it in a theater for $30. At least this way I won’t die by seeing it. Something to look forward to before Wonder Woman on Christmas!

It's almost as if government agencies aren't very good at handling complex operations. Shocker.

It's more like they've been set up by one side to horribly fail so that people can have ill informed opinions like you can show up in this thread and say something that lacks critical thinking.

Tenet is both very stupid and very good and fun, the sound is WTF Nolan, and it's gorgeous and my first 4K that I've played on my new 55 TCL TV using my PS5. A great experience.

Ignoring the first part of your post because that conversation is dead, which TCL did you get? I'm leaning towards a TCL as my first 4K as well and I'm curious to hear opinions.

I believe everyone recommends the 6 series, but I actually went one step down and went with the 2020 series 5 55 inch because it was so much cheaper and still basically at the same tech level as the previous years series 6. I think $350-450? It's fantastic, minus the first unit from amazon that came broken (two lines of broken pixels). I had a replacement in 4 days and kept the old one till it arrived. New one has been here since October and great.

perhaps but they're not as good as vinyls

They have better sound quality and are more convenient and degrade slower. Vinyls have nicer artwork though

sorry but y'all are just pawns in the game to make CPL have a violent reaction to the word "vinyls"

My father was an audio engineer. Vinyls are a worse medium. But again, artwork is nice.

You know what I'm waiting on? Netflix to keep releasing their best shows on blu ray. Looking at you season three of stranger things and the Haunting of Bly Manor. also, Rat Race is finally coming to blu ray on June 1st.

(one of the best comedies of the last thirty years that not enough people talk about).

Blu-Ray.com is down due to a hardware failure! Bummer! What else can I mindlessly click to in the middle of the night to see if some random Blu-Ray has a review.

drat! they are where I see deals for movies I buy and then don't watch for 6 months on sale.

Same! Just used them for a price match of LOTR 4K. Had a reward certificate, a couple price matches, and basically I paid $10 for the set! I’m p excited.

Wait, how much is the price on sale? I've been holding off on buying them...

do any of you care about steel books versus regular? I used to seek out steel book versions but now, unless the art work is truly better, I don't care. Still very proud that I got the last Mad Max Fury Road steel book from best buy back when it was first released. Of course, now I want to upgrade it to 4k so I have the black and white version too... but I love that case.

Physical media is basically dead, then, isn’t it? If it doesn’t exist at retail, what other than boutique labels can exist? Just amazon?

Went to Best Buy the other day, and was shocked at how small it was. A hundred movies maybe? two shelves, mostly bare. Made me want to go online and instantly buy as much 4k content as I could.

I can say this with a little bit of insider knowledge, but I know someone who works at Disney/Hulu and someone at Netflix. Everyone is seeing the light that streaming isnt the future its all cracked up to be and all those price raises we're slowly seeing trickle out are only the beginning. The cost of streaming is going to be pretty outrageous in the not so distant future and I think this may just help physical to get the kick in the pants it needs.

Now Apple better give me a Severance UHD too. That's what I really want (and for Mr. Robot/Hannibal to be re-released on UHD).

We also need Andor on 4K

It sucks tracking the porn collection is tough. Since the apps are on iOS you can’t add adult movies (usually) it’s a big hit or miss. Some are there if they’re recognized as maybe more than porn but then stuff like the taboo series isn’t allowed.

Are you talking just the stuff that the big sites put out, or you talking about buying actually porn disks in 2023? Is this an actual thing? (Not shaming, just legit curious).

And when you open that boutique you better take requests from the thread to make our obscure release dreams come true! :colbert:

If Fall of the House of Usher, Hush, and Midnight Mass (as well as seasons 3 and 4 of Stranger things physical happen) don’t get released I’ll be upset. Also, a 4k of Wonder Boys. (Happy we finally got a blue ray).

Also all of little bear on Blu ray, and the new adventures of Jonny Quest.

Parallax posted:

hasn't this happened with amazon and apple too already

Yes. Which is why I’m nervous about the soundtracks I legally bought on iTunes, and usually rip YouTube audio backups too just in case. (Or in the case of a lot of video game soundtracks, it’s the only way to have them locally anyway). And it’s also why I started buying blu rays and 4k again. Case in point, I own all of west-world now that it was removed from steaming, and Babylon 5 blu ray is like two weeks away!
