Hey, man! Don't knock the $5 bin! I've got some good titles from there. Medicine Man, Hackers, all the Ernest movies (did I just admit to that??) and a lot more. The only one I've seen out of that list is Sneakers. It;s a entertaining film.

I've picked up a few $5 movies lately from Wal-Mart. Sometimes they have some pretty decent titles in there. I just hate having to go though that thing.

Picked these up from the $4.88 "Fathers Day" Bin.

Rush Hour
Three Amigos
Lethal Weapon 3: Directors Cut
Lethal Weapon 4

and I picked up Harlem Nights out of the $5.50 bin.

Ok, since we're on the subject. Has anyone found that digging to the bottom of the bin will yeild better titles than just sloshing through the top. There is too much Andy Griffith/Stooges/random western/crappy kids movies at the top of the bin, and the lady always gets annoyed when I have to dig to the bottom. Unfortunately my trek to the bottom has never yeilded one of those titles where you say, "OMGWTFDVD", but I'm just wondering if any of you have found any hidden treasures towards the bottom?

They also had Rush Hour 2, but I already had that one. It was a display near the front of the store. Said they were perfect gifts for Fathers Day or something like that. There were several other titles in there.

Most of the titles I end up getting from the $5.50 bin are near the bottom.

I'm pissed off. My brother found "Every Which way but loose" in the $5.50 bargain bin at Walmart, I have probably bought a good 20 to 30 DVDs from the bargain bin over time, some are great classics and 80s movies, while others were mistakes (Don't buy "Octagon" even if you are a big Chuck Norris fan. The movie blows)

That being said, watch whatever one you you want to watch, if you can't decide, go with whichever has the best rating on imdb.com .

My Wal Mart have a bunch of two DVDs in a bundle for sale for $9.98. Some of them are decent movies such as DieHard, Enemy At The Gate.
