I got the Saving Private Ryan 60th D Day Commemorative Edition for only Php425.  8)

Mas Ok pala itong R3 compared to R1 because the R3 has both English DD5.1 and English DTS tracks. AFAIK, the R1 has only DD5.1. Sulit!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

fyi, SPR CE R1 has DTS track when you buy the WW2 boxset.  the SPR CE - R1 individual DVD set doesn't have DTS track though.

Just to let everybody know, the Kung Fu Hustle DVD now has 3 versions!
The cheapest is at P299.00, the midpriced one is at P895 and the 2 DVD set at P999.00.
Nakakahilo talaga ang Magnavision, coz the P299 and P895 dvds have the same features,
(as far as I can surmise from the back covers of both dvds).  The one that really stands out
is the 2 dvds set. Magnavision should stop producing the P299 version of their titles. 
Nahihilo na ang mga customers nila.  And it's creating a big headache for the stores selling
their dvds.  Imagine the trouble they have doing the inventory of the titles.
Just like what happend in the Astro SM Makati sale, nagkamalimali ang sale price ng
Kung Fu Hustle DVD, kasi nga 3 versions ang binebenta nila.  And if you compare the P299 version
to the regular priced dvds (esp. when it is put on sale), di sulit!

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

thanks, as of yesterday meron pa 2 extra copies. nakuha ko na replacement... pero bad news is it's still defective  :(  same time of skips and subtitle problems... freaky nga  ;D  baka naman ganun lahat ng r1 copies??? i'm going back later to ask for another replacement  :(

  Sir, I think that's a problem with the R1 copy. My copy have occasional minor pauses too. It was also addressed in the DVDTown review. Here is the link:

  It could also be player related. I don't know though if the R3 version has the same problem. My player has problems with MGM R3s but not with MGM R1s.

I think I screwed up bigtime.  I bought Harry Potter 1, 2, and 3 during this sale.  I just realized right now that the part 1 I got is in fullscreen!  The second and third one is widescreen, so those two are ok.  I'm now stuck with this one and have to rebuy this title.

Is there a widescreen version of HP 1?  Do you guys think Astro will allow me to exchange this for the widescreen version?

D kaya player related problem?

im not sure with that. went there last monday and after opening 5 new copies, it still has the same problem. so I just got the last opened dvd for myself ;D

  Sir, I think that's a problem with the R1 copy. My copy have occasional minor pauses too. It was also addressed in the DVDTown review. Here is the link:

too late na  ;D  well, im ok with the 2 pauses and 20sec of no subtitles
