I know it's a huge YMMV, but for anyone with a closing Blockbuster store, I can't tell you how many times I've seen African Cats, Crimson Wing, and Oceans used BDs for $2.99 or $1.99 at each closing store. I had already bought African Cats and Oceans new (fortunately I got good prices at Target with coupons but obviously $1.99 each would've been better), and I got Crimson Wing as a 5 for $20 Blockbuster deal. I don't recall having seen Earth at any closing stores, but I have a note with a huge warning on this:

For those who don't know, DisneyNature Earth is just a recut/renarrated episode from Planet Earth... so there's no new material. So, I avoided buying it at any price. I think it's narrated by the old James Bond... Charles Pierce Bronson... I mean Pierce Brosnan.

At $12 each brand new, I actually think this is a pretty nice deal.

Would go for it if I didn't have them all already!

Yeah, this appears to be Attenborough for both. Also, this pack appears to contain the special edition version of PE with all the bonus features. This is a deal of the day, so anyone that wants it needs to order it now.

Planet Earth is a wonderful show, but you are certainly right that they've repackaged it an insane number of times, on both DVD and BD.

EDIT: They also have BBC Natural History Collection 1 for $62.99, The Universe mega collection for $58.99, and Human Planet for $23.99.

In for Horse Soldiers, thanks. Now if only Big Jake, Fort Apache and Rio Lobo dropped down to a similar price-point, I'd be able to complete my Duke HD collection.

My guess is that closer to Father's Day you will see reductions on all of these.

And don't forget that THE BIG TRAIL and THE BARBARIAN AND THE GEISHA are both upcoming Walmart exclusives and available for pre-order now.

You all can thank me (or God liking me today) for the Planet Earth/Life bundle DotD. Just last night we watched an old Planet Earth demo disc I had and decided to finally buy the set. As you all noted, they've been released and packaged together an obscene amount of times, and I spent a good 40 minutes trying to figure out the best value. I gave up in frustration, but this makes it easy.

I'm surprised. I thought that only worked if you actually bought it before the sale, not just wasted time on it.

Jaws and Titanic blu rays are down to $19.99 so picked up both. Really can't see them going much lower than this - even if they do, I'll still get the discount applied.

Picked up Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince BD with Jaws and the 1st & 2nd season of Seinfeld on DVD with Titanic to get free shipping.

Re: Amazon Blu-ray Discounts and Deals Thread #27

We used to have a general blu bargains thread, right? Couldn't find it so just posting here, as I saw the standard Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy on sale in one of the above posts. Anyway, I though I read sometime back in one thread that the Girl Trilogy extended version was on sale at BJs. We don't have BJs here, so asked my brother to check it out in NJ, and he was able to find one for $29.99. Have him pick it up for $32.09 with tax. Of course I will have to pay a little more for the shipping. But still a good deal compared to current prices at Amazon.

I've seen this movie already and got interested again after watching the US version. The almost one hour extra play time for each movie would make it interesting enough for another view. As I actually liked the original version compared with the Daniel Craig remake.

Thanks. I ordered at $11.99. It still hasn't shipped so I sent an email to Amazon to see if they could adjust the price on my order.

Damn, do I just on To Catch A Thief now or wait for it to drop under $10?

Can't imagine Dazed and Confused dips below $20 so I might have to bite now.
