Shrek & Shrek 2 are not included sa 299 sale.  They are releases from Magnavision.

upinsmoke and hem,

thanks for the infos mga pre.  Hope to get a copy today.  Will check out the stores that you mentioned.  Sa National Bookstore sa Festival, hindi nakasale yung mga DVDs nila.  Sayang, marami pa naman selections dun.

thanks again.

101 Dalmatians (Animated Classic) was not released locally. The R1 is out of print with prices ranging from $60.00 up.

I wouldn't worry about it. There is a licensing fee that comes with reproducing the THX logo and adding the optimizer to individual DVD releases on a per region/per country basis.

The fact is, the Region 3 version contains the same video track and the same "Disney Enhanced Home Theater Mix" (in Digital 5.1) as the R1 version. What the THX certification means is that Disney's DVD master met the strict performance criteria for video and audio playback as supervised by THX engineers. Now if you decide to watch Aladdin in Mandarin or Cantonese, that's a different story. It's likely those 2 tracks were not submitted to THX for evaluation -- another possible reason for the missing certification. ;)

So the R3 version may not have the seal of approval in black and white, but you're still getting the real deal.

Thanks for the info, Firewired!  All the while, I thought that since a THX certification is not indicated in the R3 Aladdin, the sound is inferior compared to the R1 release.  Pareho lang pala ang audio tracks nila.

bought "Finding Nemo (R3)" from Astroplus Podium today, too bad "Incredibles" was not in stock, also sayang National Treasure was not included in the sale even if it is a Walt Disney release.  :(

 ;D ;D ;D

Tried SM Makati yesterday and Shangrila, unfortunately wala yung hinihanap ko na titles. 

Anyways, those looking for Finding Nemo, saw a couple of copies sa SM makati sa video shop nila.  YUng Aladin na 2 disc meron pa sa Video City ATC two days ago.  Not sure kung meron pa today.  Post ko later kung ano pa ang meron dun after I drop by later this evening.

Happy hunting.  ;)

It's a month long sale naman.  So hopefully di ka mauubusan and may pang replenish sila ng stocks.  what you need to worry about is baka matanggal yung ibang titles sa list like in the case of Fox titles.

But sana wag naman.

According to the personnel in Tower Records ATC, their Viva DVD titles will go on sale on Sept. 15.  ???

Personnel in record bars in SM South Mall and SM City Manila said they have not yet received their "memo" about the sale, but they are aware that those titles will go on sale.  ???

There is no emotion; there is peace.

Oo, pareha lang sila.  'Yun nga lang, mas maganda ang packaging ng R1 Special Platinum Edition.  At saka, hindi THX-certified yung R3.  Naiinis nga ako eh.  Dapat bumili na lang ako ng R1 noong nag-sale ang Astro earlier this year -- inisip ko kasi meron na akong R3.



Yah the best talaga yung R1 sa ganda ng packaging at THX pa. parang commercial sa tv "DAMING BENEFITS"
Happy to meet You.
