Grabbed Get Out for $4.99. I've been wanting to revisit it since first seeing it, so it was tough to pass up at that price.

Tempted to pick up Get Out, but I’m not sure I would ever watch it again. I enjoyed it but it doesn’t have a lot of rewatch value. Would have bit on Split for $5. :(

It's gone way lower.

According to camelcamelcamel, this is the lowest. It comes with Prometheus and Covenant which just came out.

You are probably thinking of the quadrilogy.

That's the DVD version, the blu-ray is Alien Anthology.

There is a Bluray Quadrilogy too with just the 4 movie discs (2 cuts of each)
The Anthology in the US is the 6 disc -- 4 Movies and 2 massive bonus disc

In the UK both of those sets are named Anthology. In the UK there is/was also a 5 movie set called "Prometheus to Alien: THe Evolution" with 2 versions -- a 5 Movie/8 Disc set and 9 disc set adding Prometheus 3D.

As far as I'm aware $40 is the lowest price for the new 6 movie/6 disc collection released in August, but losing the 2 bonus disc of the US Anthology and the Bonus disc of the Prom 3D set is a huge loss.

This new one that's on sale for $40, does it come with Digital HD? The packaging just says Blu-Ray but the page does say "Alien 6-film Collection Dhd". I picked up the 6-disc Alien Anthology in the spring for $25, before they re-released THAT one with Digital HD.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
 
I suspect many of the blu-ray deals this season will be Add-On items (for example, Camelot blu-ray for $5 is currently an add-on item). If you 'Save It For Later', does that lock in the price until you find other things to order with it, even if it's two or three weeks later? Is there any way to add blu-rays to the monthly Subscribe-and-Save program? Or is this the month I order a years' supply of cat litter? :)

I don't think "save for later" does anything price-wise, in fact they notify you when stuff in your list changes price.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
 
I'm sure it doesn't lock in the price. And to my knowledge, media products are not eligible for Subscribe n Save because they're not consumables that you need repeated deliveries of.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
 
Save for later does not lock in price. I use Save for Later to, well, save for later, and keep an eye on the price if I think/know the price has been cheaper. When you go into your cart, it will tell you if something's price has changed.

I dunno, have you seen the average toddler with a Thomas the Train dvd? Just saying...

Why would anyone let small children handle their discs?

Kind of tempted to get War For the Planet of the Apes for $12.88 but looking at Best Buy’s ad the 4K edition is only $14.99. I don’t have a 4K player or tv but since it comes with a Blu-ray too it might be worth the extra little bit to future proof myself. Wondering if Amazon will match their price. I’d probably get a couple others if they do.

At first glance, I didn't read that word as "discs."

*snicker*, I can guarantee you that my toddler & myself don't have that relationship. ;)


Anyyyyyway, well it's a 5 dollar dvd, it's not exactly a Third Man Criterion. Believe me, I'm trying to show him at an early age how to take care of it. But I'd be foolish if I would actually start with something I care about. Needless to say, but I'm also abusing the heck out of Amazon Prime Video (first seven seasons of Thomas). It's a slow process.

The Jacques Rivette boxed set is $49.99 on Amazon. That's the lowest price I have ever seen it as.

This morning I picked up Ronin Special Edition, Baywatch, War for the Planet of the Apes (4K) and Alien Covenant (4K)

They pretty much matched the Best Buy prices. The 2 4K's were $14.99 each, Batwatch was $8.99.

Since Ronin is Arrow and you will never find them in a B&M, I picked it up. It was discounted to $22.97

Saw that and ordered it last night. I didn’t really care about 4K anyways.
