got this message when I followed the Sucker Punch link.

Weird.


Item Under Review

While this item is available from other marketplace sellers on this page, it is not currently offered by Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with our inventory of the item, the way we are shipping it, or the way it's described here. (Thanks for the tip!)

We're working to fix the problem as quickly as possible.

I've seen that "Item Under Review" message when the item changes from Blu+DVD Combo to a straight Blu release. My guess is that they've depleted their stock of combos and are shipping the Blu-only version. They just haven't changed the details on their item listing yet, so a couple customers have complained.

I see one of the customers posted this review:


4.0 out of 5 stars BUYER BEWARE, August 12, 2011
By rasputinafreak - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sucker Punch (Two-Disc Extended Edition) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)

One thing that someone should point out is that the picture is incorrect. This item is NOT the combo pack of Blu-ray and DVD. It is a two disc blu-ray pack. That surprised me when I received it, but I decided to keep it all the same. This has more features than the combo pack does, which was fine by me. The special edition is worth getting for all of the extras that it contains, and is probably better than the combo pack (unless you have a ton of friends who doesn't own a blu-ray player or you are currently do not have a blu-ray player, but are considering buying one).

What do they mean more features? How much more features?

One of the Amazon Marketplace sellers is listing it for $24.99 + $2.98 shipping. Beats Amazon's price by about 3 bucks.

Yeah, I saw that too. I didn't recommend just in case people didn't read the description closely enough (where it said case may be slightly nicked or cracked, etc.) Some won't care of course...but some will.

EDIT: Amazon's price now up to $39.99.

Oh, that BOB and Pacific looks like a buy; I'm glad I waited. Now to wait even longer until the price goes down.. hopefully during their Christmas specials.

A Marketplace seller has Scream 3 for $5, and Scream 2 for $6, fulfilled by Amazon and eligible for Prime:
http://www.amazon.com/Scream-3-Blu-r...3773289&sr=8-7
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...A1AXRK4GSOE197

However, keep in mind the trilogy is still $19.99 with the 2 documentaries. So unless you only need 1 of these to complete your collection, you're better off getting that...

I think it's just the same disc in a more ordinary package.

Blu-ray DOTW: Tron five-disc for $39.99. I don't own it but I don't feel a need to either. The new film is probably a rental, and though I saw the original in theaters (#datingmyself), I was never a big fan.

Hmm, I guess I let all of last week's "anniversary" deals expire. I must be getting better at resisting deals I don't really need.

I'm assuming this is probably already mentioned in a movie clubs thread, but for those into clubs, I'll briefly mention it here...Disney Movie Club has the BD/DVD combos of both Tron movies available as enrollment selections. No 3D and no digital copy of Legacy, but if all you want is 2D, get those as part of a membership with one of their "best offer" codes and they average out to ~$10-11 each.

I saw Tron on original release too. I was around 18 years old. Enjoyed it, but didn't love it. I was on a Disney cruise this January and they were showing Legacy in 3D plus a bunch of other current/recent releases in the ship's theatre. Sat down at a late-night showing of Legacy after the kids were in bed, and left after around thirty minutes. Did nothing for me.

EDIT: Link to Disney BD Club thread w/offer code:
