Dirty Harry Collection (Dirty Harry / Magnum Force / The Enforcer / Sudden Impact / The Dead Pool) [Blu-ray] $28.99
Dirty Harry Ultimate Collector's Edition (Dirty Harry / Magnum Force / The Enforcer / Sudden Impact / The Dead Pool) [Blu-ray] (2008) $109.99 ($49.99 during LD)
the difference (even during the LD) seems to be a little high. Even accounting MSRP's (129.96 vs. 64.98), that seems a lot for special features.
NOTHING so far for the first two days. I would like that Sound of Music, but it's about $14 too much for me right now.

(I posted this is in the DVD section thinking it was the Blu Ray Bargains thread)
I don't suppose there is anyone willing to pick me up the 'Watchmen' set if that becomes available at $14.99? Unfortunately I will beat work and have no access to the internet at all and really don't want to miss out on the set.
PM me if anyone can help - it would be much appreciated. I have positive feedback on the trading list, eBay and I'm in charge of a DVDTalk FF league to back up my honesty.

I agree. Nothing for me on these 2 days of lightning deals. Amazon clearly isn't trying as hard on these prices as they were during BF week.

Ok, I'm nostalgic, are these prices, such as The Abbott & Costello Show: The Complete Series, gonna be $25.99 for 9 discs, or is that possibly going lower? As there's no price showing on the map, but on the Amazon page it gives that price. Nice price as it is by the way, but if it'll go lower I'm in. I grew up watching these shows & love them.

I have seen so many John Wayne box sets. Why is it they cannot put them all into one BIG set? I have only found one set (4 movie set at that) that has "The Cowboys" in it.

I guess it really depends on what you own or looking for. I did buy the sound of music last week. But really wanted the box set. If its under $30 I will buy it and send the other one back. I only see 3 that I would buy (two of them being the Batman or watchmen). If they cut the price on the Dirty Harry I may buy it (MAY).

It seems to be the entire run of A&C shows drq2. Was just searching around & found this: All 52 episodes of The Abbott and Costello Show are included with this release, spread across eight discs, allotting the first four discs to Season One and the remaining four to Season Two. It says on Amazon 9 discs, so that's probably bonus stuff?

I just want to make sure you know that this is the TV show and not the movies. I know I'd be really disappointed if I was expecting the Universal movies and got the TV series instead.

I'm fully aware that they're the tv shows. I didn't pick up that drq2 noted "movies" though. good catch.

Owned by different studios. E.g., Warner has The Cowboys and The Searchers, Paramount has True Grit and Liberty Valance, someone else (Lionsgate?) has The Quiet Man. And a bunch are in public domain.

Well, a little bit of both. I just picked up the Dr Manhattan version from BB, but I can gift that at Christmas. I thought it was a good movie and I wouldn't mind having it in my collection - the ship just adds something else to it.

Absolutely nothing on my list for Tuesday... I was hoping for a better overall selection of Lightning Deals from Amazon for a second time around...

Just in case I have the one that I pickup last week pack and ready to be ship back to Amazon if I get one.
Something has me wondering. On BF they said if so many people signed up on Facebook they would make Mad Men cheaper. They did not get it but yet they did make it cheaper. I'm really shooting for all 3 of them at $14.99 Alice does nothing for me, but the other two I have room for. My Tron disc (The ID Disc) came today. If they do it, I am wondering if you can buy two of them (one of each, I just want the extra items not the movies as I own them).

I agree, it does. Especially if, like me, this would be a triple dip (after getting the bare bones releases, then upgrading to the SD Ultimate Edition). If the special features are the same as the standard def Ultimate Editions, I could live with just having the BLU version for the picture alone. (I already have the badge, booklet, etc..)

Despite my best attempt to hold back I went ahead and ordered the Thriller Complete Series set earlier today during its lightning deal. I hope it is worth the 68 bucks.

Why someone would buy something they hate for ANY price just doesn't compute to me
Unless he's an ebay reseller, that would explain a lot.

Re: MORE Amazon Movies & TV Lightning Deals: Dec. 13-17
wow these lighting deals are definately not as nice as the black friday week ones.
Karate kid for 11.99? the essential holiday collection 41.99 julie and julia 9.99
I was hopeing Julie and Julia would have been 5.00 bucks or 5.99 since it was one of the 5.00 titles at walmart durring black friday, and amazon pretty much matched the 5.00 price titles in that round of lightining deals. oh well.
Iam sure this means pirates wont be discounted that deeply either.

I agree with others - after the BF deals, these seem rather mundane. The prices are not that incredible, some barely a deal at all. I am only tempted by a few - Watchmen, Ken Burn's Baseball and Ally McBeal.
