There has been a lot of confusion about the re-release of Paramount’s previously released Blu-ray titles. At first we were told May 20th, then Amazon changed the date to June 3rd.
On a hunch, we decided to stop by our local 24hr Wal-Mart at around 3am….. It looks like May 20th was right after all (Someone should tell Amazon.)
Our local Wal-Mart had Tomb Raider, The Italian Job, MI:3, Shooter, and a few others on the shelf.
We do wonder if they will show up at other retailers like Best Buy today as well.

Best Buy in Chicago has them.
Did you see Bee Movie?
Merrick,
I didn’t see Bee Movie…. NEXT was there though.
Bee Movie seems to be MIA.
Not seen it anywhere.
Local Frys has Next and Face/Off
Paramount dropped the ball big time.
Most online retailers dont have ANY of the expected Paramount titles.
No Bee Movie, Face Off, or Next being sold by any major online retailer.
Sadly, none of those are available locally for me either.
Hmm sounds like i might have to replace some of my hd dvds soon.
Merrick I guess they decided that they hadn’t pissed off Blu-ray buyers enough yet eh? heh.
I’m still not buying any Paramount titles until I get Transformers. Or at least Top Gun.
