$26 for Nacho Libre? I think not. That is a bit high for Babel also IMO.

I would think it would just be a matter of time before their previously released BD titles would be repressed and ready for distribution. That is good, because there are a few that I was actually interested in...like Letters from Iwo Jima. I managed to pick up the MI: Box Set after the announcement; too bad I paid full price for it because I bet it will go on sale for less.

Coming to America is listed as out of stock, but still purchasable. At 15 bucks I went ahead and ordered. Let's see what happens. It says a ship date by the 6th of May, so that's not bad.

I really think that these slight re-issues of titles is Paramount testing the waters on who buys what and what should be re-issued or not in mass quantities. I can't imagine that they will re-issue a bunch of titles that hardly sold well on HD DVD unless there is a big demand.

I mean, although there is just one HD format now, I really doubt we'll get every single disc that was released on HD DVD.

well i bit for mi1 and 2, and coming to america, and waking life dvd, and saw 4, and stir of echoes. all for less than 70 (thank you 10%).

i have to thank the OP, although many of the titles listed have been available the whole time, the paramounts i ordered have not been for a while. very awesome. i like thread titles that totally scream "HEY LOOK AT ME!" when i'm in the mood for some shoppin!

I've been waiting for MI series to become available again for a while. The big one that I want though is Shooter. Come on Paramount get your stuff together.

same here on Shooter. You would think it wouldn't be hard to re-release.

For those interested in one of those titles that don't have Prime that would rather not pay for shipping, I'd recommend attaching one of the 13 dollar Blus to your order. I decided to bundle up Stir of Echoes with my order of Coming to America. A cheap DVD from the 7 dollar DVD sale Amazon has going on now wouldn't be a bad choice either.
