*crossg* · 26-04-2008

My local Best Buy was still getting new HD-DVD stock up till about a week ago. Most Universal titles were $12.99, I took advantage of it. Searched high and low for The Chronicles of Riddick and finaly found it. Then within the last two weeks I received my 10 free HD-DVD from Toshiba. The last 5 they had substituted The Chronicles of Riddick for something else I ordered, Oh well. To date I have 64 HD-DVD and 64 Blu-ray movies. Most of the BD movies were bought in 2 for 1 sales. Paying $30-$35.00 for a high def movie is still way too much. And why the hell I ordered Darkman from Toshiba is beyond me.
