Just an advance notice to some upcoming price reductions on catalogue titles. A lot of these DVDs suck, but there are some widescreen (only Homeward Bound 2 is 16:9-enhanced, though). What About Bob isn't Disney, but I give it my hearty recommendation for a $9.99 SRP title.

Will hopefully finally pick up Angels in the Outfield in July at the new $15 SRP. Would pick up Muppet Treasure Island (and Treasure Island) to go with Treasure Planet, but Muppet TI is P&S and TI is overpriced for a barebones disc.

It's too early for Disney to reduce the price of those two movies.Too early, yes, and also Disney hardly ever reduces the prices of their animated films. They temporarily reduced the MAP (Minimum Advertised Prices) of a few of the features (Fox and the Hound, Robin Hood, Rescuers Down Under, etc.). But nearly all of them still carry a $29.99 SRP, which is pretty high. But Disney's always been known to carry premium prices.

It looks like there are three that I am going to get soon (or when they become available). Blackbeard's ghost, I'll be home for Christmas, and Princess of Thieves. with those prices (at Wal*mart anyway) who can pass them up!

Even at that price, Blackbeard's Ghost is a rip-off, poco. Probably the worst quality I've seen on a major studio DVD.

It's more dreadful than the dread pirate Blackbeard.
