That is a pretty decent sale. Damages Season 1 at $30 is a fantastic price. I just paid $40 to buy it from someone in the exchange forum and thought that was a good deal.

Thanks OP!

Wow, that is a GREAT price on Damages. I've never seen that show, but I'm a Glenn Close fan and heard great things about that show. At that price (and with the two great reviews (http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/list.php?orderBy=Date&reviewType=All&searchText=damages) in this site), I couldn't pass that one up.

Yes, it's one of the best shows I've seen in a long time and it's been renewed for at least one and maybe two more seasons (can't remember). I just bought it and I'm selling my SD version which I had gotten at Barnes & Noble so cheap I couldn't justify getting the BD at the time.

Bought Close Encounters and Spiderman Trilogy. Total was about $58.

I've been waiting for a good deal for Across the Universe. I might go ahead and get it for $15.99 along with Damages.

That's what it says. But I was able to just buy Damages. Maybe because it's a set?

Probably because it reaches a certain dollar amount, versus what the title is.

Just for the record, you don't need to buy two titles like the banner states. One is enough to get the sale price.

Damages for $30, that a must buy at the price. I haven't watch the show yet but I heard its really good.

I've been waiting on a good price to get Damages. And this is a great price. I rented it to check it out and it's fantastic. Wathched the first two and then quit and decided just to buy it when a good price came along.

^^^ That's a very good question, dsskid. I ordered the Spiderman trilogy from there. I never would have if it weren't for such a great price. Anyway, it was the only title that was sold out, but I haven't heard anything about whether they will honor their sale prices or anything like that.

Anyone know what cut Hellboy is on BR? I had thought that only the theatrical cut was released on BR but according to the review here and the only BR for sale at Amazon, it is the Director's Cut. But you can see "Director's Cut" written across the top of the photos here and on Amazon and it is missing on the artwork at J&R.

Anyone know for certain?

If you click on the out of stock link, you get:
Out of Stock
Note: This item is not in stock. You may order this item and we will try to obtain it. If we are not able to secure the title within 14 days, this item will be cancelled and any remaining items from your order will be shipped. Your credit card will only be charged when we ship your items.

I'm in for
Order #1
CE3K & Spider-man trilogy

Order #2
Damages & We Own the Night

Might have to place another one for Across the Universe and something?

From everything I have read it sounds like the directors cut. I'm pretty sure that's what was released.

Well, for those interested in knowing if the Spider-Man and Close Encounters sets will ship it certainly seems that way based on the fact I'm already showing a pending charge for them.

I have the Blu-ray of Hellboy, and it is the unrated director's cut, coming in at 132 minutes (if that helps you).

For my brand new PS3, I already received my first order of the Spidey Set and The Patriot. Today lost control and placed another order for Lives of Others, Immortal Beloved and Across the Universe. A bit higher than what I've been used to paying for HD-DVDs, but good deals nonetheless.

They canceled my order for Close Encounters of the Third Kind (which showed as in stock when I ordered it). I don't even own a PS3 yet so I suppose I'm not that upset by it... but I am a bit disappointed to tell the truth.

Bram Stoker's Dracula

I might have ordered more, but since I have a number of recent purchases, the Boss may not be too happy with this one ;)

Yeah, I got a shipping notice as well and I had ordered it when it was OOS. But Close Encounters of the Third Kind was in stock when I ordered it and got canceled. I won't complain though. It's a pretty awesome deal on the Spider-Man set! :)
