Target is just totally random, sometimes the shelves won't be replenished for months but then randomly one day you'll find something you wouldn't expect to see there.

Either way, Target, Best Buy and Barnes & Noble have each confirmed to me that they are heavily downsizing if not moving on entirely from selling physical media movies.

What's the next best B&M location to browse?

Maybe places like vintage stock? I wouldn't be surprised if busier cities end up with a couple more small movie shops, but that requires living in a bigger city.

Still got the shrink wrap on that random Target version of Toy Story 4 on UHD that was $9. Thought they were clearing them out but it keeps getting replenished for $25 or whatever.

I’ve literally never seen any release cover for this movie that wasn’t just the old Clark-being-electrocuted poster, to the point where I genuinely thought this was a different movie for a second :wtc:

My favorite thing about this cover is that the house they're all in doesn't even remotely resemble the house in the film. And the overall aesthetic is completely off.

The one I'd really like to see get a 4k is Lady Vengeance.

This is true, but the second one is a true rarity as a comedy sequel that's better than the first.

The Brady Bunch Movie on Blu with the deleted scenes (which have never been released, including some cut cameos from original Brady Bunch kids) would be a day-one purchase.

edit: I mostly buy physical media for the bonus content. I would strangle a puppy for an extended cut of Brain Candy.

Brain candy has no bonus anything. Just the film. It's the same thing as the DVD, only it's not being sold for 50 bucks.
I copped it cuz knowing paramount they'll let this new BD go out of print too.

According to KITH the vhs lovely leaked workprint is the only thing left of all the cut footage, including the original depressing ending. (it's all on YouTube though)
Paramount trashed all of it, so we'll never get any kind of cool criterion release extras wise.

They should still let them do a commentary track though, cheap assholes.

Just panic bought both Brain Candy and that Brady Bunch double feature based on this post because I'm tired of paying high prices for OOP discs I slept on when they originally came out. I hate that I payed the amount I did for the Scream Factory editions of the Poltergeist sequels.

I mean, everyone should own brain candy anyway, so good call.

It's a weird release, it's listed as MOD on the case, which should mean a burnt BD-R since it's manufacture on demand, but it's a pressed disc. 99% of the MOD stuff is pressed anyway, with one or two things actually being burnt discs... I kinda wonder if the plan is to switch to BD-Rs if they run out of the pressed run.. So this might be safer from going out of print then it would be... But also who the hell knows.

It looks great though, the movie has some great production design, it deserved an HD release. Doubt this will ever see a UHD considering the 20 year gap from DVD though. I had to break my no BD purchase rule.

I think I meant more “a US release.” My understanding is that they’ve only released it in high-def outside of Region 1. Like Arrow put out an OldBoy 4K in the UK, similar w Battle Royale.

General rule of thumb with obscure semi-celebrities(i.e. people who the media isn't gonna cover because they aren't famous enough) is to never go digging to find out anything about their personal lives or political views because you may get a nasty surprise. Better to stay blissfully unaware.

That's what happened to me with that new Ghostbusters box set. I first learned of it from Phelous's YouTube review, immediately went to see if I could buy it, it's all sold out everywhere. The UK one is still in stock, but it's both more expensive and is missing half the stuff, and Sony have said "that's it, we're only doing one run!". Their amazing marketing meant I didn't hear about it until they sold out, and I think even some pre-orders failed to ship.

Better order Brain Candy right now, just in case!
