No Tron at video stores??

on Saturday, February, 26, 2011 2:21 PM
Got tired of waiting for my partner to return the movie he got from Netflix so we could maybe get Tron, so I went to Blockbuster today. Not knowing what section it would be in, I asked up front.

"Oh, no," the guy said. "Disney pulled all of those back from the video stores about five years ago." Say what?

Have any of you all heard this? I had no idea. So pretty much there is no seeing the original for me until the re-release comes out and hopefully the video stores buy it (because I'm not sure I want to buy it myself)?? Or was Blockbuster-dude just clueless?order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pill

Program, please!


Chaos.... good news.

I think they did pull them off the shelves so they could make more money
with the release. It's a pretty smart move on their part.

Netflix doesn't have the original Tron either.
They say they will have Tron Legacy
and hopefully Tron as well.

I am buying Tron either way when it comes out.
I'm glad my buddy has a copy of the original Tron.
We watched it right before Leagacy the first time we went to se it on the big screen.order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pill

I think this is a common practice of Disney's, to release their films for a limited time and then yank them from the shelves. I guess they believe it gives them a "mystique".

Makes you wonder - better hurry up and buy it when Tron and Tron: Legacy get released.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Apparently, back in 2007, the Department of Homeland Security randomly deemed Tron to be ~sensitive material~ because of the scenes that were shot at the Shiva research facility. They demanded Disney act on the aforementioned ~declaration~, unless Disney wanted to find themselves in some very hot water.

So, while their attempt to recall the brunt of the videos was pleasantly half-hearted, it still happened.

When I moved, I gave away a bunch of my videos. So glad Tron wasn't one of them. I still have a VCR so can watch it anytime. But when it comes out on DVD, I will buy it.

If you web search The Making of Tron you can watch the docu in pretty good quality on YouTube.

I have seen it on youtube and even saved for future reference. That's why I want my own copy. where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

I mean who knew Tron started out as an ad for a radio station showing a backlit character smashing discs of light together?

It was great hearing about Jeff having his own helmet and he still wears it once a week. Dan's Gramma started a Rerezz Ram campaign. Cindy refused to start filming until she lost 5 pounds, and stayed at her gym until she did. Bruce talking about the dancer's thongs they had to wear.

A great and wonderful recap of the filming of one of my fave movies from that time.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

Is it confirmed that the release of Tron on DVD/Bluray will have the same material that is on the 20th Anniversary and maybe some more tat we haven't seen before?

I watched it online because I couldn't find it anywhere... but I looked at Family Video last week and they had the 20th edition (only 1 disk, couldn't watch the interviews and such) but Youtube is the best way to go unless you have a Family Video without people who try to steal DVDs (it would be in the prequels/sequels section)where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

I didn't want to have to buy it, though. I don't really buy DVDs...I think I own exactly one DVD, and that one was bought for me.

Thank heaven for interlibrary loan, though. I swear the last time I searched the library catalog, I couldn't find a copy, but my coworker urged me to try again and now I have it reserved. With any luck it'll come in by this weekend since I'm planning on going to the library Saturday anyway.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online
