Powerplant will have a sale this Oct 12-14. I guess O Music will have a good sale this time since they are scheduled for renovation.

I just passed by Astro Megamall. I was expecting that the Viva 299s will be reduced to 150 again. 199 na price ng mga 299. Ito yung mga prices dun.
VIVA 299 - 199 350 - 299 (selected)
MAGNAVISION
333 - 199
WB
199 - 175 275 - 199 350 - 299

with the closeness of the sale dates, i doubt there would be any new titles included. might as well wait around December and hopefully they would include new titles or new stocks. Personally I'm eyeing POTC-2 2-disc, Cars & Shooter.

Pretty much sale everywhere. Viva titles are now 100-199-299 even if not weekend this week. Magnavision's 50% off, 199 for local minted DVDs, and 199 for older imported discs is ongoing...
Warner lang ang hindi, but Warner's disc are very low priced as it is, and sale discount is often 10% or less unlike Magnavision and Viva na 20-50% off regular prices.

The selections in Podium are pretty good. I swore never to get The Abyss SE simply because it was a non-anamorphic release which didn't make sense to a lot of collectors then. It still doesn't make sense to me today, but at Php100 for the 171 minute version of the film, I'm not complaining. Alien vs. Predator was also going for Php100. I almost bought Fat Albert but came to my senses before I paid for it.

i would be wary of those P100 titles, at least those that came from Viva. most, if not all, of those i saw are foolscreen versions. i wouldn't put it in my shopping tray unless it's clearly specified in the label that it's widescreen. and then, you still wouldn't know not until you view it.

The Fox and MGM titles are widescreen so no worries there. However, Viva's Hallmark, Artisan, and independent studio titles are mostly Betacam-source FS releases. Astro Podium conveniently placed them on a separate shelf.

Actually, it really isn't too hard to differentiate the foolscreen betacam transfer from imported bargain dvd. Most of the imported dvd have a box on the back to indicate the screen size, some like Remembering the Titan is fullscreen but it is still imported DVD 9. And after a few trips to the video shop, you can pick one from the other just by scanning the back. Some title that are foolscreen like Hallmark titles is still a bargain at 100. Some miniseries are 2-3 DVDs packed in two DVD cases. Okay na rin, better than VCD naman mostly ang transfer. At 375, it's expensive but at 100, okay na rin... although it's really a joy to get good widescreen dvd9s at 100. Life Is Beautiful is fullscreen dvd, but at 100, I bought it to share with friends the great film (I already have a R1 orig).

Assault at Precinct 13 says widescreen but it's really fullscreen. So I immediately returned it for that reason.

and that's what i'm griping about. some of those P75/P100 titles have 4:3 indicated in them, some have none... and even those with "widescreen" printed on the cover i still do a doubletake. i really wouldn't mind getting those older/classic titles in 4:3 at P100, but for newer ones such as brokeback mountain or chronicles of riddick for sure i wanna have the widescreen version. in fairness, those two plus some others have "full screen" clearly indicated. also, i do understand there's a market for them, mostly those still stuck with crt monitors. for sure they are much much better transfers than vcd's, w/c are also selling at the same price.

BOB in the tin case edition is about P1950. Don't know about the regular cardboard box set -- could be cheaper (or the same price, go figure).
