Is that your old blu in the wood chipper there?

Verified Purchase:Yes
Fargo is a Coen brother masterpiece, and one of the best Midwestern American films ever made. The previous Blu Ray was fine and dandy, but I picked up this Shout Factory Steel on a whim and I was blown away.
First, the packaging. Not that impressed with the black/red color scheme, Fargo is a white movie to me. It is white inside however, so they were going for something different and it does look nice, no stars off there.
This version has a 30ish minute additional extra feature from the Charlie Rose show from release date, interviewing the brother directors and their female star. This is a great add as on camera appearances by the Coens are rare.
And last, but not least, the transfer. Let me just say the film looked amazing, totally broke my brain watching this beauty in motion. I didn't have a low opinion of the old disc, but after watching this it was that old cliche, "like watching it for the first time". Colors popped, motion was film like and gorgeous, and that cinematography glowed on screen. It was not "kinda funny lookin'"

Requiem for a Dream needs to be approached as not a piece of well made entertainment (which it is) but as a reminder of how fast/far we all can fall. Many don't need or want that kind of downer in HD, but its beautiful and heartbreaking and here it is and it's cheap, so SCORE!

Thrills, spills and a handful of pills. It all adds up to one of the most spectacular car chases in motion picture history! Barry Newman stars as Kowalski, the last American hero, who set out to prove that he can drive from Denver to San Francisco in just fifteen hours. Along the way, he meets an old prospector (Dean Jagger), a snake worshipper, a nude woman on a motorcycle, and a blind D.J. (Cleavon Little) who InchseesInch danger ahead in this super-charged, action-packed adventure!

Nihilism at 90 mph

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the ultimate car movies with a little psychedelia thrown in for good measure. Hard drivin' cross country with the cops in hot pursuit, they don't make them like this anymore. In HD at an amazingly low price, can't beat that with a tire iron!

![Scream Queen Double Feature: The Fog/The Howling [DVD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)
This double feature contains two cult horror classics. In The Fog, a Northern California fishing community is terrorized by a strange fog populated by zombies out for revenge. In The Howling, a TV newscaster heads to a secluded retreat for a rest only to be disturbed by strange shrieks after dark.

It's a Blu Ray not a dvd

Verified Purchase:Yes
Two Horror classics for the price of one, on one disc, no special features. If you love these movies but don't want to spend too much money then this might be the one for you. And its not a dvd its a bluray, so you get HD quality! I think the Fog is one of Carpenter's lesser efforts, but the Howling is great!

Thanos Uber Alles
on August 31, 2018
Posted by: Stanis78
from Turlock, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
The culmination of 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe explodes onto the home market. Starring most of the MCU's cast of heros and one particular purple Bad Guy, Thanos, the story rages across the universe for the Infinity Stones (hinted and shown throughout the MCU's run) being collected together and used against the Universe itself. Great story, picture, perhaps the audio is a bit low. Special features are ok on the disc, but the online code gives a great 30 minute roundtable of all the MCU directors discussing the universe, so don't through away your slip!

Take off and recreate epic scenes from the movie with these Hot Wheels Star Wars Episode 8 Starships. The collection features diecast replicas of ships from the movie, letting little ones fly their own missions. These Hot Wheels Star Wars Episode 8 Starships each come with a stand for easy display.

Did a blind buy to get upto free delivery. Was a clearance item but got a star destroyer upon arrival. Its solid, not tiny, and worth the price. If i had chosen in store it would have been this one anyway.
