I finally picked up a used DVD of Andromeda Strain earlier this year, so, you're welcome?

They're due. And Andromeda Strain has been available in Region B.

Was thinking of ordering it in the future, now I'll just wait and pick up the domestic version.

Now where the hell is Jaws 2? Sheesh.

For a second I thought this was the world's weirdest movie 3 pack.

Munich is a must buy for me. I don't really care about the other two.

Was hoping the individual titles from the Spielberg box would come out alongside Munich. I actually figured we'd be lucky to get Munich along with the inevitable Always/1941/Duel/Sugarland releases.

Same here. The title I really want is Always.

Wasn't Sneakers on HD-DVD? Hopefully, it's a new transfer.

Yes I have the HD-DVD. If memory serves the transfer was pretty decent but the sound was nothing special. Maybe not even 5.1?

Never seen Sneakers. Know absolute fuck about about it.

I know of Andromeda Strain but have never seen it. Sounds good though.

I will fucking get Munich when it hits a good price.

Yeah, Sneakers is cool. Loved River Phoenix in it.

In for Andromeda Strain if it is a new transfer and superior to the Region B release, which rates around 5/10 for PQ to my eyes. This seemed to use a dated transfer, but the encode was decent.

Way too long. I'm surprised it's not a 10th anniversary edition.

Munich is my only #1 of the last 25 years not available on Blu. I hope this release is real and accurate.

I just read over at digital bits that these are all Best Buy Exclusives. WHY?

Lots of Blu-rays have been "Best Buy exclusives" in the past, but only for a few weeks or months before they're available everywhere.

They want to promote their massive media sections.
