What was the last DVD you bought and why?

Tools    





Got these today from the Wal-Mart bargain bin:

Domestic Disturbance
Virus
Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood
Screwed
Bless the Child
Along Came a Spider
Fire Down Below
The Haunting (1999)
Saving Silverman

I plan on switching to HD as well but not for a long while. Personally I don't like to spend over 10-15 bucks on a movie unless it's something I absolutely need to have. Right now I'm trying to take advantage of regular DVDs at good prices and they're still a terrific viewing experience with my HDtv and surround sound. I'll wait until HD dvds become less expensive.

Yeah from time to time, that bargain bin has some decent films in there for 6 or so bucks. Along Came a Spider is a very good bargain personally.

I snagged Virus out of that bin a couple months ago too.

Of course. Though, prices are gradually going down and by early-mid 2007 you all should be seeing some affordable prices.

Indeed, there's some good deals in the bins. That's usually where I look first thing as far as Wal-Mart goes, then I browse the $7.50 section and so forth up to $10. Unless it's a brand new release I probably won't go any higher than 10 bucks per movie.

Best Buy has some good weekly deals too sometimes. I went there before I got home and grabbed:
Austin Powers in Goldmember
Devil's Advocate
Desperado
Matrix Reloaded
The Fugitive
Sleepers
Rush Hour
All for 5.99 each.

Then you should pick up Quick Change (1990) and Z (1969) to get those tough letters checked off (they happen to be great movies, too).



Only bought the Wedding Singer last night. Today I plan to get The DaVinci Code and a few other cheap movies.



Along with Da Vinci Code I snatched...

Swordfish
Secret Window
Dumb and Dumber
