Since we aren't the huge metropolis city like Los Angeles or San Francisco, our Best Buy has a list of all the prices of the stores in the area and what they are charging. All I do when I go to Best Buy is tell the sales clerk that I would like the price match for best price advertised, they look it up and that's what I get. I didn't know about the Wal-Mart price on the 2-disc "Kong" set until the clerk quoted it to me, and I said "yeah, that is the one I want."

They didn't have all the titles that I wanted at Best Buy, so that is why I chose Circuit City, because they had this great big sale bin with all the titles in it and it was easy.

My points are not in jeopardy of going away anytime soon. I still have in excess of 100,000 points to use at my descretion.

Rent: 2-Disc Widescreen

My only real beef is that we're not given the option to watch either the theatrical version or an extended version with the deleted scenes, the full Goodbye Love number, and the alternate ending like Sony did for The Forgotten DVD. You have to watch the theatrical version and then see the deleted stuff on disc 2 and feel like kicking Chris Columbus for cutting the stuff out to begin with. I'd at least love for Goodbye Love to be restored to its full length.

Other than all that mess, the movie was amazing.

Actually, mine was on March 30, not the 31, but, it's close enough!

They'll all get watched. At some point. Before 2020. Probably. :)

And you call yourself a Jake Gyllenhaal fan. :headshake: :P j/k. If do ever get a chance though, get that 2-Disc. It is so worth it.

I was actually rather depressed that the 2-Disc wasn't in my hands. We went out to exchange the Single-Disc, but I couldn't find it anywhere!

I smell a Secret Santa gift!
