    For any Canadian's out there, I think this is a fabulous deal on the TV show "Firefly."

      When I start my summer job, there's a good chance I go to that GoHastings site for the 11 seasons of South Park I don't have. Looks like they're all under 10 bucks a piece used. Tremendous deal.

        For anyone that has seen this on blu-ray, is it really top notch in terms of picture quality?

        EDIT- Damn, they have some really good prices on their used blu-ray movies at that website. I wish I had known about this before as the prices are almost to good to be true.
        I've ordered from them over 10 times. Never had a problem. The prices when I started ordering from them last year was cheaper than it is now. The shipping has gone to a flat $2.28 per movie vs. the old way which was $2.xx for the first movie and $1 for each additional.

        Keep in mind:
        Previously Viewed= Rental (probably missing any extra discs and has the rental barcode sticker in the center of the disc)

        Used= A trade-in (usually has all the extra stuff) so go with Used.

        I got Star Trek 09 for $10 which was practically new back when it was going for $20-25 a week after release.

        Hoping my copy of Avatar has the DVD. I'll let y'all know when it arrives (although I'll probably never watch the DVD)

I didnt really care for Club Dread and thought Beerfest was average at best. There is an older broken lizard movie I picked up years ago, Puddle Cruiser and it was the first movie they did. To say it was pretty bad is putting it lightly. Luckily for them they went from that to putting out Super Troopers and changing their fortunes for the better. Another Broken Lizard movie Im looking out for is Rogue Scholars as its supposed to be similar to an Animal House except all the Broken Lizard guys are playing teachers who consistently screw with the students so that could be pretty funny as well.
          I got Puddle Cruiser for 3 bucks at a Hollywood Video closing...I look forward to seeing how bad it is haha

            I pretty much only buy from there now. There used prices are great and the Blurays are in great condition

                I thought the movie itself was just ok (about a 7) but it looks fantastic.

                Speaking of old movies anyone pick up The Magnificent Seven bundle? Does it look any good?

                      I wish they would do this with The Hangover and Law Abiding Citizen (but those aren't Paramount).

                        Well Im glad Ive been waiting then as I really wanted this movie. This Sapphire series hasnt been that great considering the issues with this as well as Gladiator.

                          Got my $15 used copy of Avatar in. Like new with the DVD and blu ray. Did it come with a slip cover? (not that it matters much to me)

                            Yes. The slip cover looks great.

                              Gotcha. As long as I got the DVD...all smiles here. Going to test out my surround sound setup this weekend.

                              Update: Avatar is indeed blu ray crack. It's about as close to perfect PQ and AQ as I've ever seen. If you have an HDTV and decent sound system, you owe it to yourself to have Avatar play at least once.

                              Movie 8/10
                              Picture Quality 11/10
                              Audio Quality 11/10

                                Probably out of the way for most people, but if anyone can ever find Alter Bridge: Live From Amsterdam (on Blu-ray, not DVD) in stock online or in retail anywhere, don't hesitate to drop a link or notice in here for me.

                                The cover looks like this:





                                Thanks, all. I have no idea where to find this thing to be honest lol.
