those sesame street dvds are a sweet deal actually. if those plushes are the same ones sold under the sesame street label, they alone run about $6 or $7 each :D

[KLZ]

I am getting spoiled by $3.99 dvds this summer, $4.99 seems like too much to me..

[starman9000]

Yeah, I'll be picking up a few of those, my daughter loves them. (they have nice ones for $5 at Target)

for black hawk down it says "all dvds are two disc editions". there is no 2disc of black hawk down, do they mean the 3disc digi?

[scott1598]

who could tell me what other DVD's Paramount puts out that would qualify for the movie cash for "Tropic Thunder"? thanks. and thanks speedy.

[speedy1961]

Even though the ad only lists 1 title, I suspect that they'll have in an instore display of the eligible titles.

Of course, that does not help us here and now.

[TheHypnoToad]

for black hawk down it says "all dvds are two disc editions". there is no 2disc of black hawk down, do they mean the 3disc digi?

I believe that the same thing holds true for the Maltese Falcon. There was the old one disc that was then replaced by the three disc which has the 1941 & 1931 versions of the film and Satan Met a Lady thrown in for good measure.

[Cosmic Bus]

I skimmed right past the $9.99 Stagecoach 2-disc initially, but luckily alfonsosoriano mentioned it. Will use one of my $5 rewards certificates on that one and possibly Maltese Falcon, as well. Thanks!

XBOX LIVE 12 Month Gold Card // SKU 7530246 >>>> $39.99

showing up 49.99 in BB ad i received & on bb.com

[GizmoDVD]

Any other DVDs that include a free ticket to Tropic Thunder?

[DonnachaOne]

So WΔZ is now called "The Killing Gene"? Um, thank you Weinsteins?

[sleepydumbdude]

Mine had no other dvds that had tropic thunder. Pissed me off since it said other titles in the ad. I was going to buy a new printer while I was there but just got mad and left with nothing.

[u-stu]

Mine had no other dvds that had tropic thunder. Pissed me off since it said other titles in the ad. I was going to buy a new printer while I was there but just got mad and left with nothing.
They tried telling me they had sold out of all the titles with Tropic Thunder movie cash which I know is BS since they weren't busy are never busy and had every copy of the titles in question. I don't think they ever had the movie cash at my store or depending on the way it was packaged the employees probably got the movie cash.

[C_Fletch]

Well, that was the only reason why I would have stepped thru their front door. Saved me a trip. BB=Liars.

[micmac36]

so what is going on with the tropic thunder e-tickets? I didn't see them at my best buy. Does anyone know what other movies are also included in the deal?

[clckworang]

I didn't see it listed, but two of the Best Buys near me also had the Blu-ray of The Orphanage on sale. I think it was $22.99. There were a couple of other titles marked down that I didn't see listed on the ad.

[JckRbbitSlim]

Hey all, I just stopped by my local BestBuy to check out the titles eligible for the Tropic Thunder ticket. They are all $9.99 except for the $6.99 Team America. The titles are: Airplane "Don't Call Me Shirley Edition", Eurotrip Unrated, Old School Unrated, Anchorman Unrated, Tommy Boy "Holy Schnike Edition" School of Rock, and Zoolander. For the price, pick one up and enjoy the unevitably awesome Tropic Thunder.

[cmp12323]

I just stopped by BB to get Old School. For anyone who's interested, the eligible titles have a tropic thunder sticker on them. On the back of the sticker is a code that you enter at www.TropicThunderMovieOffer.com to get your ticket. The site is not working yet though, but the offer is only valid from 8/15 to 8/30, so they will probably have it working by 8/15. $12 maximum value.

[MinLShaw]

Sweetness! I have received my confirmation e-mail that Superman II shipped today. I had originally wanted The Ultimate Superman Collection tin, but in the last few weeks I've pieced together most of that content for far less. $3.99 for Look! Up in the Sky: The Amazing Story of Superman from Columbia House, $5.99 each for Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut, Superman III and Superman IV: The Quest for Peace from Circuit City and now just $9.99 for Superman II. That's a total of just $31.95 and the only thing I still don't have is the 4-disc Superman: The Movie. I even got Bryan Singer's video journals as a free podcast download via iTunes, and even though it's not part of the tin, I snagged Supergirl for $7.50 at Wal-Mart. Thanks to these sales--and Speedy for letting me know about them--even if I paid full price for Superman: The Movie, I'll still have saved over the price of the tin. Rock on!

[darkhawk]

Just bought:
The Searchers
Stagecoach

Also want:
Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner?
The Guns Of Navarone
The Natural
Wyatt Earp
Forbidden Planet
The Maltese Falcon
The Dirty Dozen
Lawrence Of Arabia
Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned To Stop Worrying & Love The Bomb

Not enough cash. I'll have to wait for next sale

[JckRbbitSlim]

The only caveat about this whole thing is the fact that Tropic Thunder is being released two days early, so all of you who are buying the Dvd for the free ticket will have to wait till Friday (including me). Just FYI.

[Lecithin]

I saw the Tropic Thunder ticket movies display and NOT ONE of them had a sticker of any kind about movie money. The staff, as usual, were clueless about the whole thing, even after I pointed both the display and the ad out to them. So I just didn't buy anything, I already own all those movies anyway.

[mcfly]

I want one of those for the TT deal.. is there ANY indication on the packaging what has to be bought? Does it have to have a Tropic Thunder sticker to get the deal??

Also, what's the movie cash amount? I don't want to waste a trip over there.

The sticker has on online code on the back that is used to print the movie cash. So yeah, no sticker = no movie cash. As mentioned earlier in the thread, Team America is the only title on sale for $6.99 with the TT movie cash. The rest of the titles are all $9.99 and I would say they are all movies that can often be found on sale for under $10.

[jrc123]

YMMV, of course but I was able to convince Best Buy to sell me "Road Trip" and "Zoolander" for $6.99. They did come up for $9.99 in the system but they manually reduced the price.

[JckRbbitSlim]

Movie money cash is for maximum $12.

[ltrain]

For anyone that is interested, The Wire Season 5 is only $41.99 on the BB website. I decided to do in-store pick-up and save myself $3 of the shelf price. :)
