Are there any discount codes for shipping? $4 ea. is good but an additional $2 ea. shipping sorta ruins it for me. I'd like to pick up Blacula, Mystery Train, XX/XY, Pumpkin, At Close Range and Hoodlum.

If you've never seen it, Runaway Train is an all-time blind buy. I saw this in the theater and was blown away....even though it's from Golan-Globus. I would imagine it looks bitchin' on a widescreen.

Looks pretty good, but also looks like it's non-anamorphic.

Silkwood was pretty good as I recall. But not enough for me to buy it...but I say that to 99% of all movies. I typically only buy a dozen or two movies every year and most of those are for the kids.

Three classic Billy Wilder flicks (Avanti, One Two Three, and Kiss Me Stupid) and Ang Lee's "other" gay-themed movie (The Wedding Banquet) all seem attractive. Too bad about the 50% markup for shipping -- LOL -- and none of my local stores have any of these titles available for pickup. Oh well, maybe next time.

Two things. One, it says online only in big letters, twice, at the top of the sale. And the OP put it in the thread title as well.
Two, don't believe the online system when it says a title is not in your local store. The only way to know is to look yourself. The system says not available when the store inventory goes down to three.

Lots of retailers' websites offer online-only pricing with the option to pick up at a local store. CC sometimes extends special discounts just for that arrangement -- by online, pick up in store.
