Cheeky Chartbusters stock LOTR 4 days before it's release

mewso

Rented it yesterday and they had it for sale too. Naughty but nice. Lovely preview of The Two Towers also.

It's on sale in Golden Discs and Tesco now.
When is the official release, Monday?

Golden Discs still at that then? They've been doing it for years and years.

With CDWOW and others sending out LOTR (and other movies)weeks before release date someone's going to clamp down one of the days (maybe)

I'm guessing you're not complaining, musician

Yup.

I categorically refuse to buy two versions of the same film on DVD, just because the one with the extras I really want is coming out later.

I'll get the 4-disc version, just in time to really get me going for the release of TTT (T-cubed?) in the cinema.

you must be an xtravision counter-jockey?
i heard it was actually golden discs first, then chartbusters, then us. it's hilarious- there's a huge cardboard display right beside our counter full of lotr dvds and vidos, and still i have people holding up a box and asking me "is this out yet?" MORON!!!!!!!!!
oh, and €35 is cheaper than anywhere else i've seen!
chartbusters have been very naughty indeed- i also heard that they're illegally renting out retail copies of training day.

RasTa

haha aye i am an owl counter jockey
yea we have them fools coming up with the box and price tag on it askin if its out yet

That's hardly such an unreasonable question, considering on
those same cardboard notices it says "Out on 6th August".

And it wouldn't be the first time that empty boxes have been put out in "preparation" for the big sale rush......

Yup, take a wander into Game anytime - though at least all the boxes have "available for preorder" or something letting you know they don't have it yet.

Exactly.
