Robert Preston's last movie performance - and it was a great one.

The main thing I worry about with BR releases of older movies is how it looks on today's equipment. According to at least one review on Amazon the video looks great - a lot of the grain removed. As for the movie, loved it!

+1 Also. A great family movie, and having little kids around to help watch is a great excuse.

Does anyone know when the digital copy expires? I am tired of buying movies new expecting a digital copy only to get it unwrap it and find that the digital copy has expired.

Not a great deal. Got it a Costco for 8 bucks. But, if you don't shop there, this is ok I guess.

Isn't this the normal price at Wal-Mart?

As much as I generally loathe Best Buy, their regular price on this is a buck cheaper.

@segafanalways: I generally don't bother with the digital copies- I make my own using some off-the-shelf programs, a goodly amount of disk space, and lots and lots of processor time for transcoding. :)

@subether: If you don't mind me asking...what program do you use to make a digital copy. I know how and what programs to make back ups of my dvds and blu-rays but I do not know how to make a copy I can watch on my laptop.

@segafanalways: I use an older program called DVD Decrypter which you can probably find on the internet, and if that doesn't work, I fall back to DVDFab, which does what I'm wanting it to do, even though it's capable of doing a lot more. for compressing the content into my preferred format, I use Handbrake with a specific recipe for size limits, audio format, etc.

@subether: I currently use dvdfab. I will have to check out that handbrake program. Thanks

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

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.
