Gotta luv Jack. Poor baby... Likewise, one of the few things I've really enjoyed Thandie Newton in. (NB: Alright, so zoid has a 'thing' for the fairer sex. So sue me.)
Respectfully,
zoid

Thanks for the heads up LeadMagnet. I will pick up one or two sets tonight on the way home.
This could be a good opportunity for us to get some new people to give the DVD a try.
Wait a sec. You don't suppose that the DVD sales have dipped enough that Wal Mart is selling them off cheap to get rid of them do you? I hope not & that it is not an indicator of how the DVD is doing in the market.

Not if Universal has put the money into making an HD-DVD of Serenity...I think the DVD sales have actually surprised a few people. Made them re-think this whole box-office thing.

Nah, Agatsu hit it on the head. At first I thought it was widescreen vs fullscreen, but a quick test proved that wrong.
I liked the theatrical release of COR, but didn't like the director's cut all that much.

Shiny of Wal-Mart to do that, but I avoid that store like a Reaver pack. I'll buy at full price, thanks.

Best Buy has one as well. I don't know if it's necessarily in-store, but it is on their website.

I think if there was no (heaven forbid) Firefly, I would definitely put COR on the exact same level as Serenity.

No. Just no. Not even the same building.Vin Deisel is not cool. The guys name is Mark Vincent, who does he think he is? Ice Cube? I will not justify his suckness by calling him that. What gives him the right think he is so cool? You could kick Mark Vincents ass.
Serenity is a GOOD movie, with GOOD characters, GOOD direction, and a GOOD script. I saw Serenity on DVD, without seeing Firefly at all. Loved it, wasn't your normal Sci-Fi garbage. I saw about 20 minutes of COR on DVD, and turned it off. It wasnt the worst Sci-Fi movie, by far, but thats not saying much.
In my opinion this just makes Serenity look bad. But on the other hand, we will get alot of COR fans because they will watch Serenity and realize how much COR sucked. Plus its a great deal.

Well, maybe people who haven't seen Serenity will see how much better Serenity is in comparison, to go with your way of thinking.
One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.
On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

I agree. I loved Pitch Black but COR was just awful - brimming with plot holes, bad acting, a weak script and a dreadful story - though visually it was pretty interesting and inventive, and I liked the idea of the Necromongers. However, in a set with Serenity? SERENITY?!
I'm actually a bit horrified they even thought to put the two together!
I will now honestly apologise to anyone that likes COR - you're all entitled to your opinions, and please note that this is just mine - so if you liked it, fair enough. But I really felt let down by it after having enjoyed Pitch Black so much.
- Shiny. Let's be bad guys.
