FoxConnect 50% off Flash Sale
 
FoxConnect 50% off Flash Sale -- many flash sales are 24 hrs, but I'm not sure on this one.

FoxConnect
Promo Code - HALF OFF (need the space)

some pretty nice deals though many repeats from previous sales. Pre-orders appear to be excluded this time, typical Star Wars exclusions and I think most Dreamworks ar blocked.
Free Shipping appears to be the usual $25 prediscount which is pretty liberal.


Some of note:

Alien Anthology -- 13.65 -- I think that may be a record (Funny than the Quadrilogy is more expensive)

Prometheus 2D 4.45 (it's missing the Exclsuive Disc of Extras that the 3D includes so I'd opt for the 3D just for that disc)
Prometheus 3D 6.65
Wolverine 3D 6.65
Avatar Limited 3D 9.10

Omen Complete Collection 6.49 (Packaging Warning implied as usual)
Guys Being Guys 3Pack 9.10
Oculus 9.49
Fault is in Our Stars Litte Inf 11.99

XMen Experience 4 Movie 11.20
Ice Age 4 Movie Pack 12
Mel Brooks Collection 15.75
XMen+Wolverine 6 movie 15.75
Planet of the Apes Legacy 16
Book of Life 3D 16
Sergio Leone Anthology 16
Rocky Heavyweight 19.49
John Wayne Collection 19.49


Not Eligible as with previous sales.
Mr Peabody 3D
Home 3D
Turbo 3D
Peng of Madagascar 3D

Its too bad that they have discontinued a lot of stuff that made these Fox Connect sales special such as the two Eli Kazan four film sets and the shrink wrapped winners and runner ups of the film classics sets. The individual films are still available at a higher price.
On the non blu ray side, the removal of all the Fox movie on demand films removed a great way to get these films at a reasonable price.


This was a rather negative post. Sorry about that.

Yea. I picked up several last sale (or at least the last sale I indulged in). Oh, well.

On the other hand, I did indulge my whimsy this time:

The Mel Brooks Collection blu
The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues / Beast Within a Million Eyes Double Feature dvd
Yongary, Monster From The Deep / Konga Double Feature dvd
The Watch blue
Killer Klowns From Outer Space w/ Halloween FP blu
The Stargate: Ark of Truth blu
Stargate: Continuum blu
Stargate SG-1: Season 1 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 2 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 3 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 4 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 5 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 6 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 7 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 8 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 9 dvd
Stargate SG-1: Season 10 dvd

I filled a couple of gaps in my Midnite Movies collection, picked up some odds and ends and just could not resist picking up Stargate for $5 a season.

Looks like it's finally time to buy my *last* ( :( ) Simpsons season set ever, as Season 17 Blu never goes on sale.

Might go ahead and buy Days of Future Past 3D for $7.70 as well since a 3D version isn't available for the Rogue Cut (which I already ordered from Fox Connect).

I still need Ally McBeal S4 at a decent price grr.

Re: FoxConnect 50% off Flash Sale
 
I'm probably going to place an order, but I'm still a bit gun shy from bad past experiences especially badly scratched discs that were not floaters (likely customer returns).

I STRONGLY suggest opening everything as soon as it arrives & checking the discs. I've received several that would not play all the way through (DVD & Blu both) at least they've always replaced them.

I also wish the site was easier to search/browse.

Thanks OP for the post. Purchased the following

The Mel Brooks Collection. $15.75
The Magnificent Seven Collection $ 7.99
The Wolverine 3D $6.65
Avatar Extended Collector's edition 3 disk $7.70
The Omen; The complete collection. $6.50

Total 44.58 ( before savings $89.15 )

I prefer the above Avatar to the 3D which is not extended release
I had purchased the 2D Wolverine for $5 recently which I can get rid off (3D has extended version)

Very good for 3D prices indeed, but I've already picked them up during the last sale. Small haul.

Once $12.99
A-team/Taken/unstoppable. $15.99

Net after discount and tax is $15.61

The movie 'Once' was the must buy for me, so other one is just a filler for the free shipping.

Thanks.

Hm............ to quickly debate whether to FIND the ones I was interested in again. I wasn't able to write them down due to the amazing self emptying cart!

I was all set to pick up the Stargate: Universe seasons at $5 each but since I've picked up the other 2 series in past sales and haven't yet watched them (they were blind buys) decided to just wait. Instead I picked up the newer "Shirley Temple Collection" volumes 1-3 (6 films each). $25.50 shipped. That's just a couple of $$ more than *one* of those collections from Amazon. I'd have purchased more but I took advantage of a several very good deals in the Target Box Set sale and last week's British TV Sale at Amazon.

I put everything in my wish list but use a second step to put it in the cart (open the link from the wish list and then put it in the cart). That way if something goes awry I still have everything in the wish list to easily "find" it again.

My cart has returned, but it won't take the code....... "Coupon rule does not exist"

Edit, it wouldn't take a cut & paste, I had to type it in. They sure make it easy......... what's next???!

I don't know why I bother with fox connect. When I look at my order status it says "suspected fraud".-rolleyes- It asks me for my billing address, and actually says "state or province" but when I pull it down to choose British Columbia it only lists states. It also asks for zip code or postal code, but it will only allow a zip code. Fox Connect is just about the most mickey mouse company on the planet. I'm gonna call tomorrow to see if they can rectify this, if not I'm done with this joke of a website.

Probably discontinued. What's out there may just be existing stock.
This is a Lucasfilm originally distributed by MGM/UA. Fox's only connection is that they distribute MGM/UA on home video. MGM/UA no longer does home video.
The film is probably now owned by DISNEY. Get it while you can.
