Amazon $5.79 DVD Sale

[mmguen]

Found some interesting older DVD's for a seemingly good price:

Amazon $5.79 DVD Sale link

I purchased:

The Nun's Story (Audrey Hepburn)
The Hill (Sean Connery)
Ivanhoe (Robert Taylor)
Gunga Din (Cary Grant)
Captains Courageous (Spencer Tracy)

Seemed to be more than the same old Warner Home Video titles

I am afraid to click the link because I know that there will be some which I want to buy!! I ended up with 5 new DVDs during the last $5.79 sale - be careful - I ended up with 3 in snapper cases (I knew in advance, but seeing as I always switch to r1db.com covers and Thinpak cases I didn't care). In addition - 2 of the 3 in snapper cases were "formatted to fit my screen" - HA! My screen is 16:9, so they lied to me. I did not read all of the fine print and did not realize that I was buying fool-screen DVDs, so I was disappointed. But, I have nobody to blame but myself for not reading the details about each disc!

It's actually the same sale as the last 5.79 sale and the 2 for 10 sales that were posted here. It never ended and has been going for months. The WB seems to be blowing off their titles here and at Big Lots. Often the same titles as well.

[mmguen]

I've had Captains Courageous in my cart for the past several months, and a few days ago I got the notice that the price decreased. Oh well...sorry

Anyone know if Westworld Anamorphic?

I would definitely pick this up if a remsaster sp Blu-ray came out,i am hoping but wont hold my breath,probally never will be unless they end up remaking the movie like they werere suppose to years ago and i actually think this could be a great remake believe it or not.

According to dvdcompare, yes:

Good to know, I'm going to get that and Jeremiah Johnson to bring my current order up to free shipping amounts. Now if only the Futureworld sequel would be released on region 1 DVD.

[Chadm]

Also, a lot of Werner Herzog movies are back on sale for 8.49 and up.

[drmar35mm]

Thanks, a good tip. Lots of classic titles here. I'm in for Suspicion, Captain Blood, The Sea Hawk, The Big Sleep, Gunga Din and Olivier's Othello. Plus Hudsucker Proxy and Contact.

[MooMooMooMoo]

If it wasn't for shipping & sales tax I'd nab Performance.

The Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde double feature (1932/1941 versions) was originally part of this sale and I put it in my cart yesterday (without checking out). This morning it alerted me that the price of that one has increased to $9.99.

This sale has been going on for over a month and they take away and add titles all the time. I noticed today they added a couple of titles (A face in the Crowd and Seven days in may) that i have been waiting a long time to get for around the 5 dollar mark.So i ordered those two and Klute,Barry Lyndon and Merrrils Marauders

I've seen this sale in the past, and the prices do indeed fluctuate frequently on some of these DVDs. If you see a title you want, it's always a good idea to grab it right away since if it's cheap today, it may not be so cheap tomorrow.
