(DEAD) Sucker Punch Blu-ray $9 at overstock.com

Sold Out is the way they're yanking down the items, I think. If you notice, the "regular" item can still be found on the site as well.
 
Ugh..this was the worst film of the year so far for me. I did dig the soundtrack, however.

Probably because I was on a date for this one. Might've enjoyed it better with some of my buddies. Probably not.
 
Crap. I really want this.
As much as all the cridics HATED this movie, I really liked it.
Of course for the story itself, it really is crap.
But I love the Style of the film. Typical Zack Snyder.
 
Ordered this along with a bunch of mispriced items including the Star Wars Saga (Blu) for like $20 and a Nintendo 3DS for $9. Hoping they don't cancel everything. They should at least let this one go through.
 
Looks like they did a broad-based cancellation of orders including orders for this item. Too bad too. I was looking forward to watching this one.

Yeah, Sucker Punch at $9 is just about as believable as a 3DS for the same price. Overstock sucks, they should have let these orders go through as they wouldn't be taking much of a hit at all.

That being said, I enjoyed the movie, though it's definitely not a date movie.

I love that they attempt to think girls are interested in watching girls as prostitutes/whores in no clothing IF they kick ass!

Yes! That is the solution!

Needless to say, I would probably make my wife watch this... then she'd hate me for a few weeks like she did when we saw SIN CITY.

I thought it was about a mental patient, not a prostitute. Doesn't change my mind about wanting to see it though. Who cares if they're prostitutes? Wasn't Pretty Woman about a prostitute and I believe women like it (I've personally never seen it). Hell, Jamie Lee Curtis was a prostitute in Trading Places but I still like that movie. I think your wife is too sensitive. Sin City was an awesome movie; who cares if it has prostitutes & strippers? I bet your wife hasn't ever been to a strip club.

Considering the regular price is about $23, if something like 300 people ordered just this alone, they would have lost around $4,000.00. Thats just a bit more than a hit.

Pretty Woman is about a man who falls in love with a prostitute. Sin City had naked women all throughout it. SP had women half naked who were prostitutes in *spoilers* her mind *end spoilers*

I have yet to date a girl who enjoyed movies like SP or Sin City. Heck, when SC came out I was in high school still and I took the girl I was dating then to see it because she knew I wanted to. She had her eyes closed and was disgusted by it the whole time. Has nothing to do with sensitivity. Would you enjoy a movie with a bunch of naked men and women gossiping/talking the whole time? I didn't think so.

Fully naked people in movies is usually porn. Are the women in Sucker Punch not merely scantily clad but fully naked? If they're full on naked, I must admit that it would be a bit weird and no wonder most of the reviews I read for it were bad. I don't mind scantily clad women in movies and don't get all feministic and righteous about it. And no, I don't mind movies with naked/ semi-naked men (I've seen all of The Amateurs and those weren't A-list hunks getting naked).

Personally, I rather enjoyed Sin City (which with what you said, puts me in the minority of women). I still don't understand the big deal about it having prostitutes in it. If it was gratuitous and in no way connected to the story, then yeah that'd raise an eyebrow. But it's a movie called "Sin City". The title doesn't exactly imply the wholesomeness of the characters from Pleasantville. I really do think, despite your feelings, that some girls just have different tastes and sensitivities towards these things. To me, Sin City was a cool action movie that was beautifully done.

Ehh, $4000 is chump change for a company like Overstock. A small price to keep your customers happy.
