Walked into Walmart today while they were opening their New Releases for HDDVD. I picked up Children of Men for 26.96, and Good Shepard for 28.96, kind of nice since Good Shepard is due out on the 3rd.
Thought I would let everyone know, cause those are good $ for Combos.
I havent seen the Good Sheppard I hope its good. Kind of bought it cause I felt sneaky that I was getting it early and they opened the box for me.
Wow, to sell that movie this early is rare for a chain like Walmart.
The Good Shepard shouldn't be on sale yet. Consider yourself lucky, and let us know how the transfer looks.

I'm in the UK and received my copy of the good shepherd from the good old US of A today in the post also. looks like a few leaked out early, I must say its a belting film and still on the cinema here! (HD DVD - Gotta love it!!!)
The transfer is very good a bit soft in places but overall mighty fine

By getting The Good Shepard early... you now have elected yourself to the office of reviewing it and getting back to us on how it is :)

Marks out of 10 for the good shepherd
Picture 8/10 - very good but not quite up there with the best
Audio 8/10 - great audio (for DD+) and good effects steering (not much action)
Extra's 5/10 - Not a lot but the U control stuffs quite informative (2hr 48min movie though
Movie 7/10 - Great movie, but not much there for action fans
overall 8/10
Frys in Industry also had TWO copies of The Good Shepard out today if anyone is interested!

Could you provide more detail on the extras? What extras are included? Thanks.

One will likely have a very hard time getting an early release form Fry's. If the tag has a future date, their system knows about it and won't ring it up. It's happened to me before, and a friend of mine just had it happen today at Fry's on Good Shepherd. It's worth a shot, but I wouldn't drive too far to do it.
