FYE had a 2 for $20 deal going one so I picked up:


I Am Legend: 2 Disc Special Edition, $12.99


Baby Mama, $8.71

Fred Claus.

The only downside is that the digital copy may not inflate the price of the disc but it still is not free. I got a message that with DVD purchase, the cost of digital copy is $1.99. It's a massive discount from buying from iTunes (Canada) where it is $19.99 but still a tad erksome.

On a brighter note... I really can't wait to watch this again. I recall really enjoying it.

I am so glad it didn't take them that long to release this movie. It's soooo much fun.

[carolinakid]

Wow! I'm getting the 2 disc SE of Mamma Mia! but its release here in the US is 12/16!

It was released here in Germany yesterday and I think there aren't that many extra bonus features on the US 2-Disc SE, so I got the German version. And I didn't want to wait so long for the US DVD to come out and then arrive at my doorstep.

[carolinakid]

I loved the film but I loved the Broadway show even more.
I love all things Abba. I have all their CDs and DVDs of their videos.
I especially love the Abbacadabra Hi-NRG remixes of their songs but the original Abba versions still hold up.You can still hear Voulez-Vous, The Visitors, Lay All Your Love On Me and others in gay clubs here in the States and Abba songs never fail to pack the dance floor even with younger guys born WAY after Abba was on the charts! Their songs are truly timeless!

I hated the original musical and actually only went to see the movie b/c of Colin Firth, La Streep and Pierce Brosnan. The cast sounded too good to be true and I was expecting a bad movie with a great cast, but I ended up loving the movie. So much energy, fun and the stellar cast was awesome.

But I've always liked ABBA and they're still very, very popular here in Europe with people of all ages.

Oh, crap, yeah, me and my negatives. So, what I wanted to say was: The US SE doesn't have that much more bonus stuff than the German one and I didn't want to wait that long.

Well here's the novel of my day. If ya don't wanna read it, look at the pictures and wait for the movie

Well, today was a VERY eventful Black Friday for me. All I bought was DVDs, and I bought a LOT of them.

FIRST, I went to the mall, and my only destinations were FYE and Saturday Matinee. I browsed FYE and saw a few things, and I then went to Saturday Matinee because I knew they would have what I saw in FYE there. I got QUITE the deal in there. I walked out with:

The Departed: 2 Disc Special Edition for $11.15. I've never seen this movie, but I heard it was good. So I figured "why not". Plus the original price was $33.99.

And since The Departed came from a bin that had movies on sale for $12.99 each or 2 for $20, I picked up

Forgetting Sarah Marshall: Single Disc Unrated Fullscreen Edition for $8.85. BEFORE YELLING AT ME FOR BUYING THE FOOLSCREEN EDITION, READ THIS!!!!: I have the 3 disc CE of this, but I always like having a backup copy in case something happens. Plus, it would be pretty expensive to replace the 3 Disc CE should something happen to it.
Before I went up to pay, I stumbled upon:

Family Guy: Blue Harvest: SPECIAL EDITION for ONLY $9.99! My jaw literally dropped when I saw it. Without even thinking, I headed up to the register and paid only $29.99 in total (without tax) - $10 less than the original price of Blue Harvest before the sale! I looked at the bottom of my receipt and saw the most beautiful words anyone could ever read - "You Saved $70.98!" I did a happy dance out of that store!

AFTER THE MALL, I headed toTarget, looking for Juno, season 3 of Sex and the City, and season 1 of Weeds. I go to the back of the store where the DVDs are, and they are ALL SOLD OUT of those 3 DVDs. I found many movies I had thought were on sale (Zohan theatrical, Journey to the Center of the Earth, What Happens in Vegas),and scanned them, come to find out they were NOT! I was SO mad. As I was leaving, I passed by the $3.98 DVD display and saw
Wedding Crashers: Uncorked Edition, $3.98
I had been wanting to see it since it came out, but I had never gotten around to it, and $3.98 seemed like a reasonable price, considering the DVD has some decent bonus features and has both versions of the film. I got home and found out that it's the FOOLSCREEN edition!!!! I was so mad, but on the other hand, Target didn't have any of the widescreen edition (which has a black banner as opposed to the FS's red). Plus it was a blind buy so I guess it's not that bad.

I THEN went to Circuit City, not really expecting much. I went over to the TV-on-DVDs for $12.99 bin, not expecting much. Lo and behold - what was sitting before my eyes but:

The King of Queens: The Complete 8th Season, $12.99
Even though I haven't finished season 7 yet, this was a steal, considering it was originally $34.99!

FINALLY, I headed to Best Buy, looking for season 1 of Entourage for $9.99. I looked through the bin, and all the seasons except the first one were there. I walked by a cart with DVDs that needed to be put out, and they had season 1 sitting there, so I helped myself . I had in my hands:

Entourage: Season 1 $9.99.
Haven't seen the show but I've heard good things, so why NOT for $9.99. I went to go find Superbad! When I found it, I had to decide between the single disc rated or Unrated versions. I chose:

Superbad: Theatrical Version $6.99. The reason I wanted the theatrical one was because I figured if I liked the movie enough, I would eventually get the 2 disc unrated one.
For my final "steal" of the night, I found:

Supernatural: Season 3 for only $14.99 (marked down from $48.99). Even though I'm not done with season 2, I didn't care.

Well, now I'm home and exhausted. I think I'm gonna go pop a movie in that I got today and relax for the rest of the night.

Oh my God. Dan that is SUCH a steal, and you are going to absolutely LOVE this show. I blew through this set pretty quickly and loved every minute of it. It's SO hysterical!

[PeterPanfan]

Haha, I actually already watched it when it was on TV, and really wanted to revisit it, so I picked it up. It is so hysterical! Valerie Cherish might even compete with Phoebe Buffay for funniest Lisa Kudrow character.

I know I love it! I love how in "Valerie Gets a Very Special Episode" she rambles on in the beginning and walks right into a cart and goes "Oh, well that's alright" and keeps walking! Another favorite moment was in "Valerie Relaxes In Palm Springs":

VAL: Ok, how 'bout this [CD] - Mary J. "Bilge".
JANE: It's Blige.
VAL: Nope, you're wrong, it's Blige.

Put that one scene on with spanish audio - the way the spanish voice actor who played Val said "Bilge" had me rolling on the floor laughing! I'm not sure why I had the spanish audio on actually. LOL.
