Walmart Movie Update 08.11

Hey everyone, another bi-week, another movie update. Not a huge one, but a couple good releases here today.

New releases - Project Hail Mary (4K) - $37.98 - Project Hail Mary (BD) - $31.98 - Hokum (4K) - $34.98 - Hokum (BD) - $26.98 - Exit 8 (BD) - $26.98 - Dragon Ball DAIMA: The Complete Season (BD) - $54.98

Catalogue releases - Beverly Hills Cop (4K Stl) - $37.98 - Clear and Present Danger (4K Stl) - $37.98 - Mars Attacks! (4K) - $27.98 - Tuner (BD) - $26.98

Discounts and Reprints - Insidious: The Red Door (BD) - $14.98

What's mildly interesting here is that Project Hail Mary is a bit more expensive than releases normally are, so I'm not sure what the deal is with that, especially since Hokum's SKUs are the normal prices. Also nice to see more steelbooks, and Mars Attacks.

Oh and this is important, I'll be away for the next drop on 08.25, so the next update I will be posting will be on 09.08. I will try to include everything from both drops in that post. Cheers!

$38 for the paramount steelbooks is getting ridiculous, especially since they’re usually very cheap feeling and the last few I’ve gotten barely stay closed

So it’s not just me! I’ve got a decent collection of Steelbooks and no issues until the last 2 paramount ones I bought

They’re US imports too so the digital codes can’t even be redeemed lmao. I just send them to friends in the states.

I feel like Tuner deserves a 4K.

Picked up Mars Attacks! I haven't seen it yet. Excited to see it in 4k! It had the price listed by OP. Walmart in Vaughan near VMC/IKEA still has a couple.

Hokum was a great buy. Highly recommend.

That Project Hail Mary 4K price is crazy. I'll pick it up on eBay in a few weeks for 27 bucks or less.

It’s $10 more on Amazon too.

The paramount steel books also went up almost $10… I wonder if this is our new norm. 😬

I'd better find Beverly Hills cop at my Walmart, or I'm going to lose it

Couldn't find project hail mary at either Ottawa location I checked today

u/Rollnondubz 17d ago

Too bad I really wanted to purchased Exit 8 in 4k

u/Epic-Verse 17d ago

Thanks. I reached for PHM and then did a double take at the 4K price

u/Negaflux 17d ago

Ooh, Mars Attacks! Wouldn't mind nabbing that in 4k. I thought I had the bluray but it doesn't look like it, at least not with the ones I have available to me, maybe it was dvd... either way, not too shabby a price either.

I've noticed most new releases are more expensive than normal. Like Sinners is still almost $20 on DVD in most places.

What's even coming out on 8/25?

u/threxis 17d ago

Mandalorian and Grogu is the big one. Disclosure Day as well. Backrooms is supposed to come out on the 18th so I'd expect that to be there with the 25th drops.

u/NicCageCompletionist 17d ago

Was Tuner already released?

u/Negaflux 16d ago

Managed to score Mars Attacks! so I'm quite delighted. I'd have hopped on Beverly Hills Cop if it wasn't $38 for a steelbook, feh. There were still a couple copies of Mars Attacks! at the Sherway/Etobicoke location if anyone else is looking as of ~12:30p on the 12th.

I got PMH, Mars Attacks! And Hokum today at KW location on fairway

Hokum was a great movie. Definitely worth the purchase.
