Ok a few of my own observations.

No, just the fact most are waking up to what they are willing to pay for a
movie. About $15 is my top for a BRAND NEW FACTORY SEALED DVD for something I
want. I think $10 is about where the price will settle for new releases.
I regularly trawl the cheap bargain bins for great DVD's for my collection,
which I WON'T be replacing with blucrap or hdcrap in the future. No, didn't have
a big pile of VHS to replace. Another reason I won't be upgrading to any thing
HD is the copy protection that will be on these devices. NO THANKS!
The price fell out of the VHS tapes when it became the main stream, its now
reached DVD now that its the main stream format.

Thats not a premier movie, and I wouldn't pay for it period.
