My brother both have the Incredibles R3 & R1.  He said that there's a difference in sound quality.  R1's sound quality is better than R3. :o

Hu..hu.. sayang R3 ang nabili ko. :'(

@Zenki,
My true lies which i bought several years ago is anamorphic.

Yes sir. It's part of the sale and it's for P250. Other new titles I saw were The Pacifier and Flight of the Phoenix and also sold for P250 each.

what!? I got this yesterday and when I was paying for it, hindi daw kasama sa sale! Inis... hay naku, usually kasi kapag morning magulo pa pricing nila...  :P

Naku! misrepresntation yan.  It's not true.  Pareho lang sound quality.  So don't feel bad.  THX certification lang ang difference.  I have both R1 & 3 kasi.  Kaya natest ko na.

passed by the sale yesterday, and it has some good titles for the 3 @ 999 promo. kuha sana ako pero may prob pa ako with my r1 freaky friday. last week sep5 they told me that I can have my replacement on sep7. and until now, nde pa dumarating and they're telling me na reserved na pala ung replacement ko  >:(  and since ayoko nman ng ibang titles, refund sana gusto ko pero nde rin daw pwede... kailangan kong palitan daw ng ibang dvd at same price  :(  nde ba talaga sila pwedeng mag-refund  ???

Saw Freaky Friday R1 dun sa display outside the store.  Pwede mo na papalit.  Since nasa labas yun, di naman siguro naka reserve yun.

Went back there this morning to have my 6th Sense replaced but since they have no stocks already, I grabbed Saving Private Ryan 60th Anniversary Edition which is on sale for P475. Dati P650 ang sale price niya. They have fresh stocks of Spider-man 2 2-disc for P475.

As of 12:30pm, wala nang spiderman 2.  Got the last copy na.

Re-posting from another thread:

The R3 uses the same THX certified English 5.1 track and video transfer that's on the R1. Either Disney didn't want to pay the extra fee for having the logo and Optimizer app in the R3 release or the set wasn't eligible by default because the Asian language dubs were not submitted to THX for evaluation.

Too bad that I can't go to Makati today or tomorrow.  I guess I'll just have to wait and see if other Astro branches will be having their own pre-Christmas sales soon.  Hopefully, by that time, the 2-disc Spiderman 2 will still be available.  Tagal ko na kasing hinahanap -- laging out of stock.

Baka naman may mga mababait na taga-Diliman dito na pupunta bukas sa Astro Makati at makakita kayo ng 2-disc Spiderman 2, baka puwede magpabili.  Salamat in advance!   ;)

 ;D ;D ;D

Was there also sa SM AstroPlus after lunch.  Out of stock na Lion Kin, Bambi, and Tarzan. 

Saw a couple of Pinoydvd members there.  Didn't remember their names.  One was wearin a red cap with glasses and the other one was wearin a Black shirt!

Ang mga members talaga, kapag sale nandun lahat. hehehhe.

Happy hunting people.   ;)

Hi. Does Saving Private Ryan 60th Anniversary Edition R3 has DTS because R1 has DD5.1 only? Thanks.

Better go there when they open.  In my experience, by lunchtime, nagkakaubusan.  They don't restock anymore by lunchtime.  Went there yesterday around 12:30pm, got the last copy of Bad Boys 2 & Spderman 2.  Naubusan na ng Forrest Gump and kakakuha lang daw ng Tarzan 2 disc mga an hour earlier.

Taka lang ako about the Tarzan & Bambi.  Limited stocks lang ba mga ito kahit na medyo current release naman.  The Incredibles nga lumang title but ang daming stock.

What's the deal with Flight of the Phoenix?  Everybody here seems to be buying it.  Even when they're at P350, I see every day people buying it too.  Is the movie really all that great, or is this just a pinoy thing?  Rottentomatoes gave it only 29%, cream of the crop gave it 20%, and it only made $20.9 million at the box office.

Though some people buy it because they probably love the movie.  More often than not since it's being a new release selling at 250, di buy it na.
