Disney is rolling out yet another new edition of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.  Considering the movie has been rereleased 8 times theatrically and on several different home video options, Disney has made a lot of money off their first big Princess. However, this time, Disney is cutting you a break.  When you upgrade your VHS or DVD copy of Snow White to the new Diamond Edition DVD/Blu-ray edition, if you enter your UPC at Disney’s website, you get a $10 off coupon towards your new Blu-ray edition.

That’s not the end of the bargains for those of us who shop online.  Big Picture Big Sound has all the details on the special Amazon coupon code (snowhite) you need to get the most bang for your movie-buying buck, and details on the Limited Edition Collector’s Set which has pretty much everything you could possibly want related to Snow White and her short pals.  There’s also a gift set with a book, a gift set with plush dwarves (which admittedly is pretty awesome), and two different packaging variants for the DVD/Blu-ray combo discs.  If you combine the two deals, you can get the digitally remastered Snow White for $25 below list cost.

Now, I’m not a Disney fan, but this is something I can get behind.  When I upgraded from VHS to DVD, I had a whole lot of perfectly good VHS tapes that were basically useless to me.  Instead of letting me trade them in for DVDs (or money off DVD editions), I just sold them at the second-hand store.  And don’t even get me started on getting burned on buying a normal edition movie when the Extra Special 2-Disc Director’s Cut With Free Toy Inside comes out a few weeks later.

It’s about time customers got rewarded for being repeat customer, not punished for being suckers who bought too early.  Kudos, Disney!  You guys are awesome.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
