I'll be cautious but will remain optimistic about the quality of the BDs. Time will tell. Glad to see these films making their way to this format.

I may consider Romancing the Stone if Amazon has a good special. Fox and the high prices for catalog titles gives me caution. Did not like Jewel of the Nile.

Big fan of Romancing the Stone, and I could care less about the sequel. Likely, though, I'll wait for this one to go down in price. The $27.95 "going price" for these catalog releases is too much for this one.
I would pick this up for $12-15, though.

I'll pick up the 1st one. I had liked the 2nd when I saw it but I was young and upon seeing it a couple weeks ago there's no way I want to own it. It's like a bad parody of the 1st. AND WHERE'S IRA?

I really loved Jewel of the Nile, never saw Stone but want to. I'm willing to pay $20 or so for these titles. I hope it's a good release and absolutely must have at least the features found in the SE DVD releases or no sale for me. I'm hoping for a two movie gift set.

I am a fan of the first one.... not so much the second one. But knowing what a completionist I am I will probably get both.

I enjoyed these films. First more than the second but would consider picking them up when they drop in price and of course if they get a good review.

Is that coming?!? That would be effin' sweet!!!!
Seriously kidding.

So yeah I'll probably pick these up during a BOGO or something, Fox is really ridicolous with their catalogue prices.Main Setup: Mitsubishi 63" DLP/Panny BD30/HD-A35/Onkyo 705/ Sony 7.1 speaker setup.

$39.98 is just ridiculous for these titles!! Don't get me wrong, i'm glad they are being released for those who want them, I just think that FOX needs to get realistic about pricing of catalog titles.
