View Full Version : Crank in Canada
spreeguy 01-28-07, 03:13 AM Got back from my local (Kitchener, Ontario) Futureshop today, after yet another splurging. Their computers say they finally have Crank in transit and should be hitting the shelves Mon/Tues of this week. Just a heads up to anyone that might have been looking for a copy, like myself. :D
I lost patience and ordered from Amazon.com. I looked at the DVD and it said it was a Maple Pictures film in Canada so I thought the Blu-ray may never make it...
eXstasie 01-28-07, 10:03 AM I just checked and the cheapest place is futureshop @ $25.99CDN.
Best Buy is $26.99CDN
Amazon.ca is $31.99CDN
Amazon.com is $27.95US
The FS in Ajax had three on Friday but they are not on the shelf (don't know why not). Anyway, I asked one of sales guys and he went to some storage area and brought one out. For some reason, he said that you have to ask for this title. I didn't ask him why since I was jsut happy to get my copy. BTW, the PQ on this one is everything they say it is; awesome!! FYI, The HMV on Yonge and Dundas, Toronto, had several copies but their price is substantially higher.
I ordered from Amazon too.
eightninesuited 01-28-07, 12:23 PM Guys who picked it up from Future Shop, does it come with the sleeve? I've noticed that Descent at Best buy doesn't have the sleeve.
mooshoo 01-28-07, 12:39 PM why does it take so long for canada to get new bd releases?? this movie was released jan. 10 for this format, and there are still problems in finding a copy of it here in vancouver...
thewretched22 01-28-07, 12:43 PM I was at futureshop 2 times yesturday. The first time no Crank on BD, second time 2 copies had mysteriously appeared on the shelf. Btw this is in Halifax
Marc D Carra 01-28-07, 01:40 PM I counted 14 copies at the Future shop here in Ottawa last night!
They must think it will be a great seller. Price was $25.99
Marc.
Blitzzz 01-28-07, 05:34 PM I bought my copy at FS at the Warden/Eglinton location on Thursday. There was only 2 there.
It does come with the sleeve.
Picked my copy up at Best Buy on Friday. Price matched to Future Shop no problem. Now I just need to get a Blu-Ray player! LOL.
thewretched22... you took my copy! :)

Nope, i actually didn't buy it. I rented the flick earlier in the week and to be honest ... i think its a horrible film.
QuadESL63 01-29-07, 04:03 PM Saw it in Calgary Sunridge FS just a couple of hours ago and I think it does have the sleeve. Didn't pick it up for myself though.
maverick0716 01-29-07, 04:21 PM I saw this in my local Futureshop yesterday and it did have the sleeve. I'd like to have this as a reference title, but I might just rent it first.

Agree 100%. Simply awful, no matter how good it looks in HD.
spreeguy 01-29-07, 06:30 PM I wish renting was an option, but none of my local blockbusters/rogers carry any Blu-rays.

Neither do mine.......that's what I use Rogers Video Direct for.
