Re: Amazon Black Friday Sales Start Monday, November 22nd
On the 1st part of my post. I see it like this. I have not gotten it yet. You lower the price or told me you lower the price and I want the lower one. They have called me on it twice this year. Twice I have done this. Good or bad I have saved over $30 on two blu-ray sets (BOB, Dirty Harry set).

While it's easy to return the BB one to the store and I already have to return stuff to Amazon, I don't know if it's worth the hassle/pain of trying to return to DD for $3-something. If I refused shipment, who knows if I'd ever get credit and if I mail it back the minimum shipping cost for media mail is $2.38. I'm tempted just to eat it like I ate $10 each on the Mad Men seasons.
And regarding District 9 @ $8.99, how bad is the shaky handheld camerawork? Is it enough to nauseate someone who is sensitive or is it intermittent and brief (i.e. not lengthy segments of the movie)? I probably can't take more than 5-10 minutes at a time without a break.

I can't stand stuff like the Greengrass Bourne sequels, but that's shaky cam + micro second editing. IIRC, the takes they use in District 9 are much longer, and the camera movement less manic which makes it much easier to digest.
Good movie too.

If this is now the Amazon deal thread, please have it renamed accordingly. This is obviously no longer a Black Friday thread.
