I'm starting to think this way as well... Also, as someone who has seen Splice, I'm not sure how many multiple viewings it will get... Worth watching once for sure, but dunno about after that...

Re: Amazon Discounts and Deals Thread #7 (is it #7? I'll pretend it is)
I'm guessing that you figured $15 each wasn't bad for a BD. A year ago, I'd probably agree. But prices have dropped so much in the last year, and Amazon's BF prices were just insane, that I now aim for $10 or less, except for maybe Digibooks, Steelbooks, and titles with bonus discs.
I can't bring myself to buy it because I already have the first movie. I don't want to pay that much for just the 2nd movie...

Me too. Especially in light of the dvd2blu and CH deals. Been upgrading my collection (at 45 titles now) for around $6 a disc. "Splurged" for the $24.99 Planet Earth set on Amazon, and even that was sticker shock in relation to what I've been paying otherwise.

I'm tempted to go for that Austin Powers deal, as $17.99 hits my catalog sweet spot of $6 per disc.
I just don't know how often I'd watch them, though.
Edit: Didn't notice that TimeandTime just mentioned the same sweet spot

They most likely will within 24-48 hours. This happened to me a few weeks ago when a price dropped on release day; I had the difference refunded on Wednesday.

Major kudos all around for that. Rare to see a store do that for a customer, but really cool beans.
