I would order the whole Alien Anthology in Blu from amazon uk for $34 shipped for the price of the 2.

see other thread.

Too high for a regular movie but The Nightmare Before Christmas is awesome and the Blu-ray is reference quality. It was a pre-order release for me.

Re: Amazon Discounts and Deals Thread #7 (is it #7? I'll pretend it is)

Raging Bull (30th anniversary edition) - $12.49

That's the lowest this bastard has been. I'm really really wanting to get it considering this is the lowest it's ever been. BUT...it's sooooo close to $9.99 that I don't know if should wait or just fucking buy it out of fear of a price jump.

EDIT:

blu-ray.com had this:

Starting today and for a week, Amazon is offering the Raging Bull: 30th Anniversary Edition for $12.49 (58% off MSRP). The price tracker shows that this is the cheapest the Blu-ray release has been. This offer is valid through May 21.

A better deal is Best Buy's Trade and Save. After a DVD trade-in, it's your desired price point of $9.99. I did this on Friday.

I've had a CamelCamelCamel alert on 10 Things I Hate About You for ages, so I was happy to see it hit $10 finally. Now that I'll buy it, it'll drop to $8 for sure! You're all welcome!
