Any idea if these are widescreen? My older kubrick collection (white cases) are all fullscreen (aka standard) and I can hardly stand watching them now.

@cleaner00: Looking at the specs from amazon..its states:

Format: Box set, Anamorphic, Widescreen, Color

hope that helps...

My favorite Kubrick film is "Dr. Strangelove" - wouldn't buy a collection without it.

I love Kubrick, but Eye's Wide Shut is just terrible. I watched it again about a year ago on cable and it is much more ridiculous now than when it came out in theaters. So much melodrama, bad lines, and over the top acting. They should repackage it as a comedy.

If it were blueray or remastered or something I would probably be in. Are these just the regular versions in a set?

Also, for some reason I just don't like/trust buy.com yet. I've never bought anything there, and I have no real rationalization, but I just can't make my self buy from them. The site is so busy with pop-ups, integrations, color schemes and such... yet I love amazon, go figure.

@ncarris: I feel you...i had the same problem with buying from them but my last two purchases have been flawless...purchased a Belkin Power Console PF30 on Sunday late in the night and received it today. Plus the price was $60 cheaper...im biased towards amazon but haven't had a problem with buy.com ...my 2 cents...

@rockortreat: I think the only reason any one watched it was for the nudity.

@matthalbig: Good to know, if I find the right deal, maybe I won't be so hesitant now.

Concur with both johnstodola and rockortreat. I'd definitely have gone for this if they'd swapped "Eyes Wide Shut" for "Dr. Strangelove".

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
