Definitely a great deal, with lots of solid titles (and a lot of crap, too!). Nice to see about a dozen of the Fox Hong Kong DVDs in there - time to fill in the collection.

Is there a list somewhere of which of the HK titles are subtitled & which are dubtitled? I already have some of them when they were released by Universe, Mega Star, etc. & am not sure which of these would be an upgrade & which would be a waste of money.

Thanks OP! I picked up:

THE TOWERING INFERNO.......$4.99
THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE...$4.99
DARKMAN...........................$6.00

TOTAL...............................$15.98

Darkman wasn't part of the $4.99 deal, but I needed a third title to get free shipping and there wasn't another $4.99 title I wanted.

I noticed that quite a few of these are also in the WM $5.50 bins. Much better price here - no TAX!!!.

Most of these have been reviewed here on DVD Talk. I looked at most of them last night and read the DVD Talk reviews before deciding on which ones to get. They generally note which are dubtitles and which are not.

Any chance you have an already completed list of the good ones you could post?

Is Dog Soldiers a likely re-release candidate?

Some good 'blind buys':

FLAMING STAR (great classic western, not just an "Elvis movie"...the King really acts in this one in a role tailored for him rather than singing).
WILD IN THE COUNTRY (another good Elvis role).
DOG SOLDIERS / GINGER SNAPS (both excellent, quirky horror films).
PELLE THE CONQUEROR (memorable foreign film).
PRELUDE TO A KISS (fun romantic comedy).

Found a new coupon to use if you are placing a smaller order and can't take advantage of the other DVDEmpire coupons. Not much but every little bit of savings helps.

Enter coupon code 693327 to save $1.00 on your next GENERAL order of $1.00 or more. Expires 07-21-05.

Can you use the $1 off code more than once?

If so, why don't you just do a whole bunch of separate orders for single items and use that code over and over again?

That actually saves more than using the $10 off codes.

That is a typo. Tracer posted it correctly a few posts later. And, I've used it - it is only $5.

I take it DVDEmpire is a good place to buy from? I haven't seen anybody say anything bad about them.

I like the fact that they offer UPS ground and give tracking numbers. DDD, as good as they are, only offers priority mail if you don't like waiting a month for a package with media mail or paying to get it overnighted.

DVDEmpire is completely fine. The only reason I rarely order from them is because they are located in my state and charge me tax.

Definitely a good place and they have been around a long time. They are usually more expensive than DDD or Amazon which is why I don't order from them as much, but I used to order there quite a bit. I also like DVD Planet, but I think that is owned by the same company as DDD now instead of Ken Kranes.

Well, I finally decided to get in on this sale. I got my cart down to just above $60 worth of in-stock items, and added coupon 693322. The coupon wouldn't apply. I kept trying different things, such as making sure the movies totalled more than $60 by themselves (ordered a couple of games, too), different browsers, etc., could not get it to add. Decided to go ahead and pull the trigger anyway (after removing the extra movies that I added, so that movies + games came to just over $60). After checkout, there is an option to apply a coupon if one forgot it, so I figured I'd give it one last shot. Bingo, coupon worked. I don't know why it wouldn't apply during checkout, but at least I got it. So, if you have trouble adding the coupon, don't worry, you'll get another shot.

Actually, not exactly. I keep my clocks on DST (DVD Savings Time). It is set to 24 hours in the future. That way my DVDs always arrive at least a day earlier than expected!

Got mine a few days ago and have already watched most of them. Duel to the Death was fun, but only had dubtitles. Still it looks excellent and all of the HK films I got from Fox look better than I have seen them in any other versions.. Great deal. Ford Fairlane and Johnny Dangerously aren't the best films, but were well worth $5.00 each for me.
