    Default Wal-Mart / Best Buy etc Blu Ray Exclusives


    Sorry if there is a thread already, I couldn't find one.

    Is there a definitive list of the titles that these stores have exclusive?

    I live in the U.K. and would like to know what's out there as I have a friend in the States who could send me stuff if there is anything I wanted.

    Cheers.

    Couldn't really give you a detailed list, but right now, off the top of my head, I know the 'Missing in Action' movies are Wal-Mart exclusives.

    Movies are so rarely great art that if we cannot appreciate great trash
    we have very little reason to be interested in them.

    I'VE GOT

    TAKING OF PELHAM ONE TWO THREE*
    LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT*
    THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE


    I'm aware of:

    QUIGLEY DOWN UNDER (wouldn't want it though)
    OVERBOARD (wouldn't want that either)
    THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR
    MISSING IN ACTION
    MISSING IN ACTION 2
    DELTA FORCE

    * I think these got a widespread release after a while (does this happen with all of them anyway?)

    Last House and Pelham are no longer exclusive. Thomas Crowne and Quigley are wide release as well.

    Even Best Buy has no idea what exclusive titles it has. It's no wonder that consumers are confused. Whoever in corporate is making these exclusivity deals isn't bothering to tell anyone in marketing or in stores.

    This is one of the lines I agree with 100 percent - it was a great addition to the Blunders article.

    the kenny chesney produced film (lord only knows its name) and killing bono went under the radar.

    throw in warner triple pack exclusives (such as superman at target, tmnt trilogy at wm) that are just rereleases, and it further makes a mess.

    I heard that Almost Famous was supposed to be, but now you can find it a lot of different places.

    On top of the TMNT live action trilogy repack and the Superman repack, the Lost Boys films are found in a three pack at some store. uncertain which, but still, neat
