Also, Bestbuy is running a 5 for $25 deal for the following titles, I think this might run all day or all weekend, but I'm not sure:

A Fist Full of Dollars
Hang'em High
For a Few Dollars More
The Good the Bad and the Ugly
The Great Escape
A Bridge Too Far
Patton
My Cousin Vinny
Roadhouse
Kiss of the Dragon
When Harry Met Sally
Porky's
Men of Honor
Wall Street
Commando
Cast Away
Say Anything
Ronin
Big Mamma's House
Young Frankenstein
Spaceballs

I'm a big eastwood/Leone fan so I wouldn't mind getting those 3, plus Hang'm High and then either Ronin, Great Escape or A Bridge Too Far. Unfortunately, the nearest best buy is an hour away and they don't have anything else worth the hassle.
