Title: ASTROPLUS Podium Pre-Christmas 2005 Sale
Post by: firewired on Sep 20, 2005 at 11:02 AM
ASTROPLUS Podium is holding a special Pre-Christmas DVD sale from Friday, September 30, to Sunday, October 2.

From all indications, this is similar to Astro's SM Makati sale 2 weekends ago but with a larger selection of titles.

Viva will likely reprise their P250/P299 selection but will hopefully include newer titles.

Warner will deduct an additional P50 to P75 from their titles-- sale items included. New box sets, unfortunately, will not be part of this sale.

No word yet from Magnavision.

PODIUM OPENS AT 10 AM on weekends (Friday to Sunday). On weekdays (Monday to Thursday) it opens at 11am with only the Ground Floor cafes and restaurants opening at 10 AM.

Yup the Podium sale is confirmed. Hopefully they do the box sets again like they did before. Based on initial feedback, it's going to be a big one.

i am looking forward to this especially since i missed out on the Astrovision SM Makati sale.  ;)

Is the Astro Podium sale this weekend really that big of a deal?  If you went to the SM Makati Astro sale last weekend and picked up everything you wanted, I don't think this upcoming sale will offer you anything new.  The titles that were out of stock since the last sale (Sopranos season 1, Pearl Harbor, Pirates of the Carribean) will still be missing from this sale as well.  The key Disney Titles will also be missing here as well because shoppers who don't know about the upcoming sale will have no problem paying the current P299 sale price for them.

I think we'll just see the same ol' same ol' title.  The Alien, Die Hard, Back to the Future, Matrix, Batman, James Bond and all their sequels, the 6th sense, etc. etc.

Constantine

To some, yes. Like me for example, Podium is walking distance (long walk) from my office, so I look forward to Astro Podium Sale. Astro Podium is also many times bigger than Astro SM Makati  so I guess there will be more titles.

It was also there that I first met many of the pinoydvd members for the first time when I was a new member last year. Would be cool to bump into em and greet em again.

Here are my reasons to get excited about the Podium sale:

1.  There were some titles na naubusan ako like Forrest Gump.  So hopefully makakuha na ako.
2.  Naka budget ako during the Astro SM Makati sale.  Now that my second Credit Card's Cut off date has passed, pwede na gamitin.  Ayoko kasi isang biglang bagsakan sa isang card.
3.  During the SM Makati sale, I did not bring with me a list of the titles I want.  So hindi ko rin nakuha lahat.  Kukunin ko ngayon.
4.  The possibility of seeing those "hard to find Disney/Buena Vista titles.  At least baka may chance.
5.  I might consider those Disney/Buena Vista titles which I ignore even with a 299 price tag, but this time at a 250 price.
6.  More importantly for me is getting those Warner & Magnavision titles which take forever to be discounted.  So I'm going to podium for those more so than the Disney/Buena Vista dvds.

during the Astro-Makati sale, they marked down the Disney titles that were not part of the current sale, right? Bambi and all those.  too bad i missed it!  i plan to get those this weekend.

anyone knows if the newer WB titles such as Constantine will also be discounted significantly during the Astro-Podium sale?

and of course being a new pinoydvd member i also look forward to the mini-EB opportunity.  :)

ps - Mods, shouldnt we be renaming this thread to Astrovision Podium sale or something?

I would normally suggest the official PinoyDVD t-shirt :D but realized that members would probably be in office attire pala.

How about a secret gesture instead? Like, get a DVD and tuck it in your left kili-kili. That way, everyone with a DVD in their armpit is most assuredly a PinoyDVD member. Haha.

Astro Podium better have lots of copies for high-demand titles!  :)

favor naman sirs....

please papost naman on this forum the 'treasures' that you'll be able to acquire or are available from that distant mall, the podium, right after your spree...i'm from alabng pa kasi e...i'm planning to go there right after office hours (4:30pm) which i think is futile knowing how pinoydvd members have invaded the area as early as 9:30am!...and with the usual friday traffic & payday chaos & 3-day sale, i just want to make sure that my trip's worth it....mahal na ng gas e...particularly looking for disney titles (bambi, tarzan, lion king, alice in wonderland, peter pan, pirates of the caribbean) and some other good-buy titles too

hope i can count on you guys.....thanks in advance

Regarding the list, unfortunately there isn't anything official yet. The titles are still being negotiated and finalized.

Also, PODIUM NOW OPENS AT 11 AM. Sign of the times unfortunately. The cafes and restaurants on the ground floor are open at 10 AM though so go ahead and spend an additional P80 on a cup of coffee. :P

Exclude:

1. Losers who live and work in the Las Pinas/Muntinlupa area and who also bear the misfortune of having a plate number that ends in 9.

I'll probably be there first thing Saturday morning, hoping that there'd be stocks of Daredevil Director's Cut and Old School. I've been looking for both for months, and if they run out of copies by the time I get there, I will just snap and put the first person I come across with in an ankle lock submission. Kidding. I am weak and frail and incapable of doing so.

Warner will deduct an additional P50 to P75 from their titles-- sale items included. New box sets, unfortunately, will not be part of this sale.

Does this mean that old TV boxsets like Nip/Tuck Season 1 and the first 2 seasons of Sopranos would be priced lower than P999? Thanks!

I could have sworn I saw a couple of this title more than a year ago at Astro Podium. Never saw any copies again. I don't think I have the authority to inquire with Magnavision, though.

Hi everyone!

As a teaser for the sale tomorrow, I was in Astro Podium yesterday afternoon and saw the salesladies already changing the price tags of the DVDs.  Among the titles that I can remember - Tarzan 2-disc and Daredevil Director's Cut tagged for Php250 each.  ;D ;D ;D

I'll just be getting a couple of titles (around 8 good titles...yung mga inaantay ko i-sale talaga). I'll probably bring a limited amount of money para hindi ma-tempt. ;D Ang problema ko na lang yung CC ko. ;D

 Hmmm...I'm in the midst of saving big time but this is really tempting. The Tarzan 2-disc is hard to pass up on. I might also end up going there before lunch. Pwede kaya magsuot ng t-shirt with the words "Will Work For DVDs" printed? ;D

Hi everyone!

As a teaser for the sale tomorrow, I was in Astro Podium yesterday afternoon and saw the salesladies already changing the price tags of the DVDs.  Among the titles that I can remember - Tarzan 2-disc and Daredevil Director's Cut tagged for Php250 each.  ;D ;D ;D


Changing the tag price as early as yesterday? Baka naman pwede nang bumili tonight since they have changed the price tags na.  :)

As an alternative, I know of someone who has reserved several DVDs already and he is just waiting for tomorrow's opening to get his loot thereby by-passing the long queue.  ;D

I'm sure I'll be meeting a lot of PinoyDVD members come opening time tomorrow.  ;)

Titles worth noting were

1.   Aladdin Region 1 now at 250
2.  Numerous copies of Bambi
3.  Numerous copies of Tarzan 2 Disc
4.  Mas maraming kumukuha ng Magna titles.
5.  Dodgeball Unrated at 250
6.  Only 1 copy of Lion King SE...but may "nagpatabi" na

Saw one stack having 4 Aladdin Region 1 copies.  Mukhang may nagpabili sa kanya.

May matira pa kaya bukas?

I'll just be getting a couple of titles (around 8 good titles...yung mga inaantay ko i-sale talaga). I'll probably bring a limited amount of money para hindi ma-tempt. ;D Ang problema ko na lang yung CC ko. ;D

Actually, reservations shouldn't be allowed. Astro asked me about that before and I said it was pretty unfair to the people who actually make an effort to go to the store early. Fine, you can argue that you're not available in the morning, but a lot of working/busy people who anticipate these sales do make time to show up promptly.

I'm not sure why this policy has changed, but if you ask me personally, they should drop it.

Was there last night too around 8 pm till 9:30, nagpa-reserve din (sorry po sir firewired, pumayag yung Astro clerks e:-[) ng Labyrinth, Dark Crystal CE, Stripes, The Sting, etc.

Actually they were asking me last night if I wanted to pay for them na because the clerks told me na puwede na kunin at sale price yung mga marked-down DVDs (either may sticker na or marked na with pentel), I just told them to hold my selections till today kasi ngayon pa lang darating yung moolah ko ;D, but I agree with sir firewired na unfair practice nga eto especially for titles na limited ang stock kasi kung ganon e di i-announce sana ng Astro na puwede yung "day-before sale reservations/selling" para walang malamangan...e kasi yung Astro walang consideration basta sa kanila benta lang ng benta regardless kung fair/unfair `yung policies nila

Saw yung Godfather 4-disc set at P1.5K, and yung Sopranos Season 2 at P999

I went there this morning and here's what I got:

Angels in America P425 (bargain of the day)
Panic Room Superbit P450
Spiderman 2-DVD P475
Hide & Seek P250
Go P333
The Score P333
Devil's Own P333
Lady Killer P250

All Superbit DVDs are marked down to P450.  They include Snatch, Desperado, Bad Boys, Heavy Metal, Circus du Soleil, Panic Room, Dracula.  Close Encounter is also Superbit, there's a little label on the back of the box that says so.

The Italian Job is on sale at P999.  It includes the old movie as well as the new one.  Not really a bargain.  I went to Radio City at Shangrila and got the Italian Job (DVD9) for P375.  It's their last copy.

PLEASE MAKE AN EFFORT TO POST WHAT YOU GOT.  That's the fun part, seeing what everybody else got.

Was there this morning at about 10:45AM.  Dami na tao -- For sure, majority were PinoyDVD members. Inggit nga ako sa iba -- basket-basket ang dala.   I saw at the counter that there were a lot of piles of reserved DVDs which were not available anymore in the display tables.  Napakyaw na siguro last night pa lang.  Anyway, was able to buy the following:

(http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/4379/astro0ez.jpg)

Annie P333
Angels in America P425
Spider-Man 2 (2 disc) P475
Ice Age (Extreme Cool Edition) P250
Tarzan (2-Disc) P250
Tarzan 2 P250
Hercules P250
The Incredibles (R1) P299 - kahit na meron na akong R3 which I bought at P900 when it was first released early this year

I was looking for Beauty and the Beast pero wala na.  I think it was Sir MatzTER who I saw offering his Beauty and the Beast to a guy he was talking to.  The guy said 'di na lang.  Kaya, at that moment, I was thinking of approaching him to ask if he would like to pass on the DVD to me -- nahiya nga lang ako.  Anyway, sana meron pa sa susunod na sale (kung saan man siya).

Sayang din na walang Toy Story -- I guess wala na talagang stock.

Anyway, happy na ako (pati na rin ang anak ko) sa mga nabili ko kanina.

Sayang...  Baka kasi isipin mong ang kapal ko.  Anyway, I'm hoping that Beauty and the Beast will turn up again in the next sale.  Over-used na kasi 'yung VCD ng daughter ko, eh.   Huwag lang sana maubusan ulit.   ;D

Was there around 8:00 p.m. Ang daming tao! Alam mo kung sinong member ng PinoyDVD kasi pinupuno talaga ng iba yung basket nila. As in parang panic buying ng DVD's! Anyway, I got the following:

1) Tarzan (2-Disc Special Edition), Php 250 --> it seems everyone has this in their shopping basket
2) Snatch (2-Disc Superbit Deluxe Edition), Php 450
3) Hitch (not the budget version), Php 333
4) The Muppets Take Manhattan, Php 333
5) Ben Hur (4-Disc Special Edition), spankin' brand new at Php 1250

Bibili pa sana ako, kaso I just got three titles from PARC yesterday (Toy Story 10th Anniversary Edition, The Nightmare Before Christmas (DTS), and SpongeBob SquarePants Complete Third Season). Haaaay! There's always a next time!

The Italian Job is on sale at P999.  It includes the old movie as well as the new one.  Not really a bargain.  I went to Radio City at Shangrila and got the Italian Job (DVD9) for P375.  It's their last copy.

hmm  weird, i got it for 666 bucks, hindi kaya mali lang ang tingin sa counter at baliktad ang nakitang price na 666 pesos to 999 pesos?  ;D

WOW!!!  Grabe sa dami ng tao!  Was there around 11am and ang dami nang ubos na titles like Lion King and Mulan.  Yung ibang tao dun, probably PinoyDVD members, puro puno ang basket. 

it was really a great sale! 

Congratulations to AstroPlus Podium for another great and successful sale!!

Got the following, all for P250 each:

I, Robot
Daredevil
Tarzan - sa wakas!
Alice in Wonderland
Winnie the Pooh - Halloween Movie
Ice Age - Extreme Cool Edition

Medyo binawasan ko baka nabibigla lang kami.  heheheh.

I am still hoping to get a copy of Lion King. Very elusive talaga tong title na to.  Pagopen pa lang ubos na ata agad. haaay buhay!

Happy hunting guys!!!

Blitz - nice seeing you!!!

Was there around 2PM.  Got the ff:

1.  Forrest Gump (2discs)  -  475
2.  Tarzan (2discs)  -  250
3.  Shrek 2 (2discs)  -  475
4.  Shark Tale  -  475
5.  Matrix Reloaded (2discs)  -  425
6.  Matrix Revolution (2discs)  -  425
7.  Beverly Hills Cop  -  333
8.  Beverly Hills Cop II  -  333
9.  Beverly Hills Cop III -  333

For those looking for Lion King SE, isa lang talaga dumating na copy.  Nareserve na the night before.  So talagang walang aabutan.  Lucky guy/girl.  Sino kaya yun?  Wala pa bang umaamin?

About Mulan 2disc SE, meron bang dumating?  Kahit yung mga naka reserve na piles, wala naman ako napansin.

Sir MAtZTER...sayo pala yung mataas na stack?  Actually 2 rows of stack pa nga yata sa may counter.  Noticed it kasi what caught my attention was the 3 Region 1 copies nga of Aladdin.   ;D

My observation lang:

1.  Dapat yung Shark Tale, kasama sa 3 for 999.  Kasi single disc lang pala siya.  Akala ko 2 discs.
2.  Yung mga 2 discs na kasama sa Astro SM Makati sale sa 3 for 999 like Bad Boys 2 & Punch Drunk Love, nasa 475 each na siya.  Buti nakakuha na ako dati.
3.  Mga recent releases sinama sa sale like, A Lot Like Love, Guess Who?, Are We There Yet, Hitch, Man of the House, Closer...which is a good thing.

 If The Incredibles DVD was the flavor of the month last sale, Tarzan naman ngayon. It seems almost everyone grabbed themselves a copy of this one. Sulit naman talaga sa P250 lalo na at ahead tayo sa US with this particular edition. It's a good thing I was able to grab the Saving Private Ryan 60th Anniversary Edition for P475 from the Astro SM Makati sale a couple of weeks ago. P650 siya sa Podium. Despite that, it's a good sale and I'm very thankful that I now have Tarzan. It's 1 of my Disney animated favorites because of its cool soundtrack and it's action-packed.  :)

Actually they do that para ngang every 2-3hrs.  Una napansin ko yung mga bagong dating na mga boxes of DVDs nilagay muna sa may dulo after the CD areas.  Then when I was leaving, nag tag na sila sa may 2nd floor yata.  Kasi pag may dumadating na mga bagong boxes, minomob sila kung anong mga titles na dumating.


So they do replenish.  Unfortunately, it may not be the replenishment of titles na hard to find.

Enjoyable sale!!!  Reserved Beauty & the Beast SE a week ago (and called and went there again to confirm) but when I got there yesterday wala na =( 

Hard to get angry tho since some of the staff are really nice.  Especially the saleslady handling the Disney discs.  Disappointed at the most, napaasa kse, hehe.  Would have preferred that early on, nasabi na walang mare-reserve =)

Stayed there from 10:30 to 11:30am.  Got:

Tarzan SE
Tarzan II
Ice Age Extremely Cool
Sixth Sense (thanks to whoever decided not to get it and placed it back hehe)
Shrek + Shrek 3D
Alice in Wonderland

Wanted to get Hercules but hardly has any special features.  Wanted to get more but had to control myself.

Tarzan II was a big (and neat) surprise!!!!!  Didn't expect this to be on sale right away =)

Lotsa fun =)

Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen R1

P333
Tears of the Sun Director's Cut (looks like I should have gotten the other edition)

Lawrence of Arabia
Meet Joe Black

P450
E.T.
Panic Room Superbit

P699 
Best Audiophile Voices 1 CD

Was the P250 Moulin rouge the 2-disk  or the 1-disk  version? While I was paying, I saw someone else paying for it. I couldn't get back tolook for it since my wife was already asking me to hurry up.   ;D

The Moulin Rouge is the  2-disc version, and it even includes DTS track. I got one for myself last night, along with Ice Age Extreme Cool Edition (also 2discs). I specifically collect 2 disc DVDs, so the Viva DVDs were really a bargain, though I already have some of the other titles na.

For those who want to start their collection, the following are the notable 2-disc DVDs I saw for the price of P250 (A real bargain considering that a blank DVD9 costs higher than that):

Ice Age Extreme Cool Edition
Tarzan
Minority Report (DTS)
I-Robot (DTS)
Man on Fire (DTS)
Sixth Sense (DTS)
Moulin Rouge (DTS)
Conan the Barbarian

we got 4 titles:    Tarzan 2 disc, Planet of the apes 2 disc, Napoleon Dynamite and Honey, I shrunk the kids.

Na dissappoint lang kasi ako Schindler's List is @ P999 pa din. Hindi na kaya bababa yun? :-\

Not too sure which ones are "hard to find," but I guess it's worth noting that I got Punch-Drunk Love yesterday for 333 bucks, while it was being sold today for P475. It feels a bit criminal.

I've been looking for The Ring Two, Napoleon Dynamite and Shaun of the Dead for the past 2 days, but no luck.

anyway, i noticed that Robinson's Galleria is having a sale on the 14 - 16 of October and they even boast of up to 80% OFF!  :o  can sir firewired confirm if Astroplus would include the September releases and other hard to find DVDs in this sale?  TIA.   ;D

Just wanted to share that I got my Spiderman 2 - 2 disc at SM Makati last september 15 at 333 lang.  I must have been one of the luckiest guys who got it.  It may have been the confusion of the prices when they were starting.  Sabi ng girl na kasama daw sa 3 dvds for 999.  So tinanong ko kung magkano ito pag isa lang kinuha ko, 333 daw e.  So I paid at the counter using my credit card and no questions asked...333 nga ang siningil sa akin.  ;D ;D ;D

I just wanted to share the story kasi nagulat ako na 475 nabili ng lahat sa inyo e.

Any news when is the next sale after podium?

Don't worry. Galleria will have a sale on Oct 14-16. I'm not sure though if Astroplus is included.
Ayala Center Makati usually holds a midnight madness sale on Halloween (Oct 28-30 for this year), and Music One and Tower Records will most likely mark down their prices too. The last time Ayala Makati went on midnight madness (May 2005), it was quite big as I remember the Matrix Boxset went down to as low as P1700.

As Aragorn would say: "there is ALWAYS hope".

so far LOTR releases are ok, but the rest of the C-Interactive releases (ie. Chron. of Riddick, Van Helsing, etc.) were poorly produced (IMHO).  I even heard other pinoydvd members say that sometimes they have trouble playing C-Interactive discs.   ;)

if you'll notice, titles such as Spiderman 1 & 2, Tears of the Sun and Bad Boys 2 (to name a few) have cheaper version releases (i mean cheap looking based on packaging, cover art and single disc instead of 2-disc, etc.) maybe that's why its cheaper.   ::)

Title: Re: ASTROPLUS Podium Pre-Christmas 2005 Sale
Post by: riverfan on Oct 02, 2005 at 07:22 PM
so here are my thoughts on the astroplus podium sale...

the warner titles are a wee higher than previous sales. titles that usually go for 275 are priced for 325 or 375.
only notable title ive seen is angels in america for 425 (from its original price of 825) considering that i bought this one for 475. boxsets are also limited. Band of Brothers goes for 2450. (which i got for 1700 during the last warner sale)
I was hoping to see James Dean DVDs. and other warner SE DVDs. wala nga lang.

the saving private ryan boxset is priced at 1500 (from 2500) previous sales, this set went for as low as 1100.

no offense, pero, I never even glanced at the C-Inter. items.

Disney/BuenaVista/Fox DVDs are priced at 250. super. Nothing on my buying list. (James and the Giant Peach, INcredibles R1 and Aladdin R1) I saw some Aladdin copies at the counter though.  :P

-----------

only bought two titles...
In the Name of the Father (Daniel-Day Lewis starrer. Jim Sheridan directed) for 333
Schindler's List (999) mahal ung Schindler's pero my mom insisted.

Btw, would anyone know the difference between the Trilogy version of Back to the Future and the individual releases?  Kakainis lang kasi it was too late when I noticed that the trilogy version I bought only had DTS available for Spanish while the individual releases had English DTS.  The trilogy kasi had a sticker saying that it was the "new version", anyone know what this means?

regarding the back to the future trilogy set, the "new version" sticker means that the discs inside are already the "corrected" version. in the first release of the set, there were framing errors in part 2 and part 3. there's a long discussion on the region 1 release here at pinoydvd (http://pinoydvd.com/board/index.php?topic=4015.0), and region 3 also had these errors.

Also got it but more for the supposed similarity with Walking with Dinosaurs than Neil's involvement. Not as good as Walking with Dinosaurs since Dragon World used more CGI than the animatronics that Walking with Dinosaurs used to make it realistic.

OT: In neil's website under Bibliography: Minor Involvement : Films,
Dragon's World; Directed by Justin Hardy, Written by David McNab, Justin Hardy, and Charlie Foley; Neil Gaiman is creative consultant; Broadcast 2004

I came very early and I didnt get the last copy of any title. There were still copies of every title I got (even Alladin R1) when I acquired mine.

Just read the posts, eveyone was in a buying frenzy. Di lang po ako ang may dala ng basket na puno. Marami pa sila pero di lang sila nagpost ng purchases nila dito.

Sila ang pumakyaw/ nag ubos sa mga titles na gusto mo  ;D.

hehehe.  ;D

was able to get indiana jones boxset naman. cheapo ang dating sa akin nung set.

Bought the following:

Back to the Future Trilogy
The trilogy kasi had a sticker saying that it was the "new version", anyone know what this means? 


"new version" means that the framing issue was corrected, there was a thread here that explains the misframing issues, however disc 3 still has misframe errors

2.  she's very accomodating

unlike the ones in mega, special mention to the one at the cashier, if you inquire multiple titles thru phone,
she'l answer (in a most unaccomodating tone you can imagine) wala na...wala na...wala na...wala na..wala na

pare ang sakit ng ulo ko this morning and sobra gloomy pa ng weather...but your post gave me my first smile of the day ;D  ill check it out when i get home later...sana nga tama ka... ;D

After watching parts of my BTTF Trilogy last night, here is what I have to report:

Good news:  Subtitle was right, the DTS is in English and not in Spanish...yehey!  This is what I was really after in the first place  ;D  The error in Disc 2 has already been corrected...another hurray for that! ;D

Bad news:  Toyfanatic was right, Disc 3 still had the frame error although this was just really obvious in one part where you couldn't see the shoes of Marty, the others were negligible but nonetheless, its still there.

Conclusion:  Since I bought these already, I can live with it.  The errors in Disc 3 will not really affect my viewing experience--since you really have to look for them to notice the errors. IMHO the English DTS tracks more than make up for it.  But, if you are planning to purchase one, I suggest that you get the "REAL" new version.

Btw,  was there really a resolution to this?  I was reading the BTTF R3 posts and it looked like the people there  just got fed up and forgot the whole thing.  Maybe Firewired can shed some light ::)  ;D

Hi guys,

Sana may mga bago na classic dvd na sila or hard to find talaga. kasi lagi na lang ganun mga titles nila. Bihira lang sila magkaroon ng bagong titles. Kung meron bagong titles sila minsan hindi pa sikat parang B MOVIE.

Wish lang sana improve nila mga titles nila sa dvd.  ;D

Kasama ko nagbrowse si aszamora (pre...next sale ulit kitakits) Then on saturday to return two titles with errors. Nameet ko si esi, nakita nya kung paano ko kinulit yung podium para mapalitan yung binili ko. Thanks to esi for the help.

hindi nga!?!?! nung pumunta ako sa sale e nakita ko yung Die Hard na SE pero nung tinanong ko yung saleslady kung may Die Hard 2 na SE e wala daw lumabas na ganon. Since medyo bitin ako kung yung part 1 lang ang bibilhin ko, hindi ko na tuloy binili.

pero kung nalaman ko lang na 2-discs pala yung part 2 e tapos na dapat usapan  :-\ :-\ :-\

We have had reports from some members na yung Die Hard 1 & 2 na binili nila, kahit na yung cover yun regular edition...ang laman pala yung 2 discs.  Probably check the 299 Fox titles thread.

I myself witnessed this.  Nagpabili sakin cousin ko before ng Die Hard 1 & 2 bundle.  Both covers are the regular edition.  But when I inspected it...lo and behold both are the 2discs special edition.  Kaya pala parang ang bigat.

ako per my list na ginawa ko kanina mga more than 12 titles pa  ;D pretty sure madagdagan pa ito  ;) And the Jack Ryan Boxset is also included in my list, I am pretty sure saw a Lion King SE when they started the Disney Sale. It was actually being offered to me and I told the sales lady na memorize ko na yang Lion King kasi my kid views that every night para siya makatulog  ;D But now I nagsisisi din ako at diko pa ito kinuha.

No, dvd-5 titles are not disclosed  in its label. Most of titles are priced at P299. If you have computer, you can easily identify the nature of the disk...kaso pag nabili mo na...wala nang balikan. Ang maganda nyan, ma-familiar ka sa mga titles na dvd-9. If you're planning to shop this comming sale, you may ask assistance from fellow members.

If the price is P299 and it is released by Magnavision, then you may assume that the title is in DVD5.  If you are unfamiliar with the titles, you may ask the sales personnel to confirm if it's a Magnavision release.  On the other hand, all of C-Interactive releases are in DVD5.  The C-Interactive logo is usually shown at the back cover.

Hope this helps.

It may not be noticable.  But I think the PQ & SQ suffers compared to DVD9s.

Some movies encoded in a DVD5 may have the same quality as that of a DVD9, specially if the DVD5 is only a bare-bones version (that is , it only contains only the movie with just one audio track and has no special features).  However for longer-than-usual movies, the picture and sound qualites may suffer.

Some of these P299 DVDs are originally 2-disc sets kaya definitely, these single-disc sets do not contain all of the special features in the original release (or they may not contain any other special features aside from short movie trailers).

Just plug in a p*dvd, then compare it to an original DVD. That's the best way to see the difference between a DVD5 and DVD9, since almost all pirated DVDs are DVD5.

Did VIVA release DVD5s? i think their P299 sale are all DVD9s.  IMHO, VIVA have been releasing pretty good R3 releases, mostly comparable to it's R1 counterparts. please correct me if i'm wrong  :-\

Yeah the JACK dvd I got during the sale is a DVD5. It has the Buenavista holographic seal and the VIVA copyright at the back. I do not know if said title was originally released in R1 as DVD5 though.

Depends on title. If the movie runs over two hours, picture quality may suffer. Sound still the same because bitrate is stable (dts: 768kbps, dolby digital: 448kbps or 384kbps). You will notice this when you use larger display. Kung ang gamit mo naman ordinary tv lang...ok lang sayo mga dvd5 kc di gaanong halata.

Sana nga wag naman.  But if you think about it, both Astroplus in Megamall and Podium are owned by Mr. Astro.  So if Astroplus had a sale sa Podium, it might make people shy away from their mega branch.  Kaya nga Megasale...para naman kumita ang Mega branch mo.

On the other hand naman...it would not make any sense to have only vcds on sale like what was mentioned in the thread.

May mga nag-post pa nga d2 sa forum na magkakaroon daw kaya maaga ako pumunta on the first day. Kaso umuwi ako luhaan. Ewan ko kung natatandaan ni aszamora kung kelan yun, kc tinext ko sya abt dun. Sana meron para di masayang ang oras at pagod din yun syempre. Ang aga aga pa naman tapos masisira ang araw. Mahirap din makipagsugal kc nalalayuan ako.

Just came from Astro Mega.  Hindi daw kasama DVD sa sale accdg sa saleslady.  Ang instructions lang sa kanila is for VCDs.  And they were busy tagging the VCDs with marked down prices.  Yung mga tables na nasa gitna were predominantly VCDs.  There were only two small sections for DVDs.  Kaya nagkalat mga VCDs.  Parang 80% ng store puros VCDs ang benta.

Disappointing!!!!

Sayang, was about to go there awhile ago. How about Galleria?

Ganon din ata sir like sa Astro Mega and Podium. They're trying daw to dispose of their VCD stocks. Went sa Mega, Galleria and Podium last night.  ;)
Kung walang sale, save your money na lang for BATMAN BEGINS ! ;D

Tama, Batman Begins na lang. Ang tanong lang e kung darating sya ngayon sa stores. Crossing my fingers. ;D

Yup, I could confirm jecjeck's statement above.  A total waste of your time if your target are bargain DVDs. But for VCD hunters, it's another case. Maybe a new board - PinoyVCD???  ;D ;D ;D

For those looking for The Three Musketeers (Disney cartoon movie starring Mickey and Donald), I saw R1 copies at the Video City stalls in Megamall going for Php299 a pop.

Batman DE, maybe Wednesday pa raw as per the saleslady in Astro Galleria.

I passed by Astrovision Galleria and they are actually placing on sale most Warner DVDs. Most single discs (including Matrix, Swordfish, etc) are just P299, and the two-disc titles (Matrix Reloaded, Revolutions, Harry Potter DVDs) are P475.

Sir Matz, since there will be a midnight sale sa Mega and Shang kasabay ng Podium Sale, saan ba magandang bumili ng branded entry level na AVR who also carries wharfedales?

How much discount can I expect from these types of sales for the AVR and the speakers.

Thanks.
Title: Re: ASTROPLUS Podium Pre-Christmas 2005 Sale
Post by: MAtZTER on Dec 05, 2005 at 02:54 PM
Try Listening Room but I dont think that the difference will be noteworthy. Wharfedales give a very tiny profit margin to their dealers so I doubt that a sale at Mega would really yield you a good bargain.
Title: Re: ASTROPLUS Podium Pre-Christmas 2005 Sale
Post by: lord_vader on Dec 05, 2005 at 06:05 PM
Just passed by Astroplus Podium. The sale is on!
ALMOST ALL Magnavision titles are down to P375. This includes the more recent releases such as Stepford Wives, Kung Fu Hustle, Big Fish, etc. Some noteworthy 2-disc releases such as Lawrence of Arabia, Glory, and Jerry Maguire are also included. All superbit titles are P475. I also saw Spidey 2 at P475. The Indiana Jones DVDs are being sold individually at P375. The DTS collector's edition versions of the Tom Clancy series (Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger) are also at P375. Just make sure you look at the disc because there are 2 versions of the Tom Clancy DVDs (The non-DTS and the DTS).

By Friday, these titles will most likely be down to P333. But if you can't make it over the weekend, you can pass by within the week and grab these at P375. Not that much difference unless you're buying in bulk.

Moreover, every P1000 worth of receipts at Podium entitles one to a raffle coupon, top prizes are the Trip for 2 to Paris, and a BMW.

Sadly, Warner DVDs are in fact back up to P595/P695/P895, except for the selected titles at P299 and P350 which are the same titles on sale nationwide. Baka magbago by Friday.

Nung last Podium kasi kasama na yung Hitch, Closer, etc. which were considered new releases na at that time.  They were going for 333 each.

Kahit siguro mag 475 na yun War of the Worlds & Madagascar, ok na.

Passed by this morning.  Wala masyadong tao.  Well as of this morning yung mga 375 titles are still 375.  They are not marked down to 333.  Wala pa daw silang memo na ibababa sa 333 ang mga current 375 titles.

Nothing new naman.  No titles really worth noting that is different from the past sales.  The recent releases like Madagascar, Star Wars 3, Titanic 3Dics & War of the Worlds among others are not included.  Warner has plenty of the 299 & 350 titles but no new additions.

One title that caught my eye from the stacks of reserved dvds is Stealth 2Disc.  It seems maraming nagpareserve nito.  I asked the store if kasama sa sale.  Di pa raw alam.  No memo yet.  But maybe daw.  So baka yung "maybe" na yun ay nagpatabi na rin yung mga nagpareserve.

Went there to get Hellboy & yung dating walang pumapansin na Karate Kid 1,2 & 3.  Hellboy wala nang stock as of this morning.  Lahat naka "reserve" na dun sa pile na nakatabi.  But to my surprise, yun Karate Kid trilogy, and daming nagpareserve.  Some even had multiple copies of each.  Available lang are 1 & 3.  So I thought balik na lang ulit ako mamaya.  Baka may dumating pang stock.

So I left without any loot.

They did mark down the prices to P333 sir, because I got the following for P1,665 (as stated on the receipt):

13 Ghosts (the 1960 original directed by William Castle)
American Graffiti (dual layer, directed by George Lucas)
Village of the d**ned (directed by John Carpenter)
Catch 22
Metropolis (2-disc, dual layer) - anime directed by Rintaro

They're selling the Indiana Jones boxed sets for P999, its' a no-brainer against buying the trilogy separately even at P333@, hope they have enough stocks though...

Ghostbusters 1 & 2 gift set also at P999.

What do you guys think is a better buy: a Lawrence of Arabia 2-disc SE priced at P333 (and loaded woth extra/bonus features) or the 2-disc Superbit version selling at P475? I'm seriously thinking of buying the title but I have no intention to double-dip because of budget constraints (aren't we all familiar with this dilemma?).

The guys at the counter said they allowed reservations only for last night on the condition that they will be purchased today...maybe they can't refuse their "sukis."

Was just there a few minutes ago.

Hay, i was just looking for two titles, the Hellboy 2-disc set and anything Troy.

Parehong wala.

Meron Hell-boy pero nakareserve na daw sa "regular customer" nila.

So, irregular pala ako? Sheesh.

Post by: greg on Dec 09, 2005 at 03:18 PM
got nothing out of this sale...

good prospects i saw were The Jackal CE and Taxi Extended Version both priced at P333.

best buy still would be the Indiana Jones Boxset at 999.

goodluck guys but i'll have to pass on this 1 first :) (damn i'm so proud of myself!! hahaha) ;)

Sir how much yung Karate Kid Trilogy? Thanks!

Judging from the pricing, 333 each.  But sadly wala yung 2.  Bitin pa tuloy.  Ayoko naman maghanap sa iba ng 2 tapos regularly priced at 895 or 999.

How about Warner titles?  Yun bang mga 596/695 nila ay baba to 299 (i.e. Matrix, etc) and their 895 to 475 (i.e Troy, Matrix Revolutions)?

Same here...was just intending to buy the Karate Kid trilogy and Hellboy 2Disc.

From the last podium sale kasi with limited budget, I had to choose between top Gun 2Disc and Hellboy 2 disc.  Chose the former.

Then another choice between Karate Kid trilogy and Beverly Hills Cop trilogy.  I chose the latter.

During the last podium sale kasi nagkakaubusan ng Top Gun and last copies na nga Beverly Hills Cop.  Ang daming natirang Hellboy & Karata Kid.  Kaya kala ko wala nang papansin nito this time around.

To my surprise, na out of stock and Hellboy and yung Karate Kid 2.  Saw 4 copies of Hellboy on the reserved file.

Just got back from astro,almost same titles pa din nothing new was added from the previous sales they had and some were priced higher than before like the harry potter series now at 595 when before it was only 450 ???. I had a list of titles that i wanted to get but most of them were dvd5/single layer copies so i backed out.When i inquired at the counter if they have more titles on stock that is dvd9/dual layer,one of the guys told me na very few titles na lang remaining thats dvd9,according to him more and more titles will be offered on dvd5 to reduce the cost of production.I dont know if that's true but i guess he has a point since most titles were really in dvd5 formats.So i went around the store again and look at titles that are still in dvd9 and bought them he he he.The longest yard was offered in 2 versions,the saleslady said that the cheaper 475 version is single layer while the 850 is in dual layer ??? ??? ???Haay ang pinoy nga naman, kaya pala sale at mura kasi inferior quality.

What titles are these?  I might be able to tell you if talagang kasama siya sa 375 titles even before sa Podium sale so you would know if talagang 333 lang siya during the sale or they got stripped off from the selections under the 375 price range.

Browsed every title under the 375 range more or less. ;)

just been to Podium and got myself the Jack Ryan series seperately (each @ 375) ang boxed set hindi DTS although same price with the ones sold seperately.  They also have a couple of Ice Age Extreme Cool Edition @ 299.  Hindi kasama sa sale ang mga boxed sets as per the sales person.  Sobra dami naka-sale, as per the Viva salesperson yung mga marked down hindi na baba ang price, baka daw yung mga nasa regular price and ilagay sa sale!  Sana!   :D

Hi there guys.

Would anyone know the difference between the Ice Age Extreme Cool Edition and the Ice Age 2-disc Special Edition?

I already have the 2-disc special edition, and I'm wondering if the Extreme Cool edition would still be a good buy.

Thanks in advance to anyone who could help. :)

Hi again.

I bought the Superman I DVD last week based on the sticker on it saying it was 2-disc.

But upon opening the package, I discovered there was actually only 1 disc in it, although it was dual-sided.

I got turned off a bit because I was expecting 2 discs rather than a dual-sided single disc.

Is this the case for all the other copies of Superman I DVD being sold?

Thanks  :)

Since your Superman I DVD is in DVD18 disc format (double-sided dual-layered disc), I'm assuming that it came in a snapper case.  If that's the case, what you bought is an old stock.  This is the same packaging of my Superman DVD which I bought some two years ago.  Warner's new packaging, even for old titles, are already in the Amaray-type of DVD cases. 

I think they also dispensed with the release of DVD18 formats, which is really okay with me.  I have some DVDs which are in DVD18 format, and I find it difficult to distinguish which side is which.  In addition, extra care is required in the handling of this type of DVD.  Kasi, ang laki ng possibility na magasgas o malagyan ng finger marks ang either side.

You may want to ask the store if they can replace the one you bought with a newer stock.

Thanks Dorian and Rafgar.

I also prefer the 2-disc rather than a dual-sided single disc for exactly the reason you noted. :)

First of all, I just wanna say thanks to the people at Astro Podium for giving me excellent customer service, allowing me to return the Superman I and extra copy of Man On Fire SE dvd which I bought, and replace them with other titles. Props to the Astro Podium manager and staff and more power!!!

Secondly, does anyone know the difference between the Bewitched DVD selling at P475, and the Bewitched Special Edition DVD selling at P875? I asked the store staff and they said they're basically the same except for the movie quality. I checked the special features of the P475 version and it seems to be intact. The only initial difference I noticed was that the P475 version carried only the English language, whereas the P875 verstion also had Korean and some other languages.

Thanks in advance to anyone who could add more info on this. :)

The 475 budget version is usually encoded in DVD5 while the 895 is dual layered or more popularly known as DVD9 thus is clearly the better version.
