    I just take the cover art out and get new cases.
    That actually might be the way that these are as well, I'll have to check to confirm. I had a feeling it was just a large cover with the Blu-ray look to it (smaller overall frame) with black and top on bottom. Maybe they are two different covers underneath it, though.

    Even still, I can't find five Blu-rays I would get from that bunch. If I didn't already own several of them, I'd be able to pull that trigger... but there's no way that I'm buying Why Did I Get Married Too and One Missed Call just so I could find five movies to buy.

      ^^^^ true. maybe the selection has gone down this time around. seemed like there were 100+ to choose from. made it easy finding sets of 5.

      i haven't looked during this sale.

            Picked up Xmen, X2, X3, X-men: Origins - Wolverine & Forrest Gump from Best Buy for 9.99 each and also got The Aviator, The American, Despicable Me, We Are Marshall and We Were Soldiers from my local Blockbuster for $20.

              I'll hold off to Friday to see if they'll dump the X-Men movies back to $7.99 again when First Class comes out (well, I guess they wouldn't do it until Sunday). If not, I suppose I can bite the bullet either way.

              I'm just "X" away from having at least one of my movies start with every letter in the alphabet.

                Are these Star Wars releases worth bothering with? I could've rented them today but went for Thor instead.

                  I guess it depends how big of a Star Wars fan you are. George Lucas continues to revise his films, but its in ways that really don't add any substance and are really just a distraction in the end.

                  Check out this review on bluray.com: Link.

                  Anyway, Citizen Kane and O' Brother Where Art Thou? came out yesterday. I have both, but haven't watched them yet.

                    I watched the first (as in episode IV,rented the originals of course) and felt it was unnecessary.
                    Then I watched the second and quickly changed that opinion. Hoth.

                      The review said Revenge of the Sith was on Avatar levels as far as the visuals. That definitely has me intrigued.

                          Considering I think the Disney blu-rays are of excellent quality, I found this article interesting. Its about their restoration team and some of the choices they make.

                            I really was disappointed when the scenes that dealt with the birth of the Rebellion hit the cutting room floor in the theatrical version. Any news that those have been put into the movie now? The deleted scenes from the DVD were very good quality.

                              I haven't heard anything about adding deleted scenes to the films (I know there including "new" deleted scenes) to watch in context, which is a feature I wish Lucas would embrace because it would make his changes less annoying.

                                They added the JarJar Binks things (dancing on top of something or other) and Hayden...what's his name to the end of Jedi. I'm 100% sure they weren't in the original.

                                I was all "they sure did a good job of casting in the prequels he looks just like...hey wait a minute!"
