If prices stay as-is, I'll be picking up 3 or more of the Bond films at $13.33 each, factoring in the free title.

Put your favorites in your wishlists/carts and see what happens come January 6.

Looks like a big selection, though. Unfortunately, I'm sure I'll be ordering something.

I take it you missed the deal last month, where everyone was buying the Bond films from Amazon for under 5 bucks each? Ebay is still flooded with em. You can likely do better than 13.33 each... Not that I want to promote Ebay. I'm trying to boycott them...

It would probably be best to wait until the sale actually starts for a price-sorted list...

Many of these titles are included in the current "Save up to 50% on Blu-ray" sale that ends on Jan. 4, so look for some of the best prices to go up before the new sale begins.

I noticed that too,I figure all those warner 13.99 titles will go up to 19.99.The Lions Gate titles like the Weeds seasons will all go up to.The ones I have been looking at are Planet of Terror,Kingdom of Heaven and Deathproof which i hope stay the same price

I just want to know why the original Planet Of The Apes is part of this deal but NOT the damn dirty sequels! They were released on the same day, either they should all be in the sale or none of them!
(Columbia House doesn't carry the sequels either....I need a deal on them since I got the original from there, and I did not want the big set with their non-standard packaging...)
