    OK , guys...a certain firm was hired to dispose of the DVD overstocks, excess, returns, etc...instead of doing as hired they sold them to a Dollar store+...of which many benefited form the act of deception...

    I remember that with Big Lots. I bought a ton of Hanna Barbara shows along with other shows, box sets and movies for $3 each. There were a bunch of Big Lots between my father in law and us so we would hit a bunch of stores when visiting en route. Really scored. I thought that was what you were talking about but the reference to the Dollar Store threw me.

    Yeah, Big Lots. That's where I got the DVD of "Zero Hour!" -- the original movie "Airplane!" was based on, with some of the same character names and dialogue, only played seriously.

    It’s funny to watch it now after the release of Airplane! I got that in a cheap box set series of B grade movies. Loved them all!

    But you know, think what a waste that would have been if they were dumped. There was a lot of fantastic titles. For example I found Justice League the Complete First Season on blu-ray for a couple of bucks. It was crazy all the stuff I picked up. Sad to think they would have been happier burying these things in a landfill.

    I agree on all, but that's what they were not hired for...to deceive the company and sell the product behind their backs...

    No kidding. I remember those Warner’s DVDs flooding a discount DVD store I frequented. Now I know why. I picked up the complete Thin Man and Val Lewton sets for cheap, among other titles.

    yes, it was a shocker when I first found out about it...funny, I already owned most of the boxsets!

    I'm seriously considering this. Is it possible it is a burning of the limited edition Blu-Ray set?

    Doubtful. If it is, they've gotta be SUPER compressed (10 discs slapped onto 2, etc). If anything my guess it's probably the DVD sets put on 2 BD-Rs or a rip of an HD stream.

    The price isn't so high that it isn't worth a chance.

    From Movies R USA website: All discs are licensed for replication and sale are not Bootlegs!

    I'm very skeptical of that.

    ‘Looking For Mr. Goodbar’ on their site immediately raised my suspicion radar. o_O

    Many things in that website's catalog are obviously bootlegs.

    Yes, and Song of the South. Good to see Disney has finally released that on DVD/Blu-ray.
