Blu-rays not available at Netflix but available from Blockbuster

post #1 of 68

Thread Starter 
I thought I'd start a thread to list blu-ray movies available via Blockbuster but not available from Netflix. Please post only movies actually available, i.e. do not include these which are listed on blockbuster.com but have "On Order" or "Unavailable" status.

My list so far:

A Beautiful Mind [Blu-ray] (2001)
All About Eve [60th Anniversary] [Blu-ray] (1950)
An Affair to Remember [Blu-ray] (1957)
Back to the Future II: 25th Anniversary Trilogy [Blu-ray]
Back to the Future III: 25th Anniversary Trilogy [Blu-ray]
Back to the Future: 25th Anniversary Trilogy [Blu-ray]
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind [Blu-ray] (2004)
L.A. Confidential [Blu-ray] (1997)
Natural Born Killers [Blu-ray] (1994)
Once Upon a Time in America [Blu-ray] (1984)
Paths of Glory [Criterion Collection] [Blu-ray] (1957)
Pleasantville [Blu-ray] (1998)
Psycho [50th Anniversary Edition] [Blu-ray] (1960)
Senso (1954)
Seven Samurai: The Film [Blu-ray] (1954)
The Bridge on the River Kwai [Blu-ray] (1957)
The Complete Metropolis [Limited Edition] [Blu-ray] (1927)
The Exorcist [Extended Director's Cut] [Blu-ray] (1973)
The Karate Kid [Blu-ray] (1984)
The Night of the Hunter [Criterion Collection] [Blu-ray] (1955)
The Red Shoes [Criterion Collection] [Blu-ray] (1948)
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre [Blu-ray] (1948)

At the time I dropped netflix, pretty much every new Criterion release. With the exception of The Thin Red Line, oddly.

Unfortunately, although the Out of Sight BD was released today, 3/1/2011, its current status is still On Order. At least that's what my BB queue shows.

They might not be available for long-The Justice Dept. wants Chapter 7 for BB.

Considering Blockbuster is likely toast next week, this is not a great time to start this thread...

Sorry to pick on your post, but the purpose of this thread is not a discussion of BB as a company etc. We have a large thread for that purpose. Please limit posts to listing titles that are available at BB (vs other rental outlet(s)). Members should be able to use this a quick guide for a list of titles vs having to wade through a discussion of BB as a business etc.

Thanks
Ron

OT posts deleted. This is a pretty simple explaination of what should be posted here:

"A list of blu-ray movies available via Blockbuster but not available from Netflix. Please post only movies actually available, i.e. do not include these which are listed on blockbuster.com but have "On Order" or "Unavailable" status"

If you want to comment on anything outside of the above criteria, please use this BB thread: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=977031


All you have to do list the title(s). No other commentary relative to BB is really needed.

Mat - thanks for this thread. Maybe u could edit your 1st post with the later post additions? Not sure if it's possible in this forum, but it'd be cool if they were all listed in post 1. Thanks again

For reasons I can't explain, Winter's Bone on BD is not available at BB but NF does have it. Unfortunately, I am no longer a NF subscriber. Talk about man bites dog! I finally had to get the Winter's Bone BD from a Redbox kiosk. In the BD world nothing is ever easy.
