Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but I noticed DVDEMPIRE has 50% off pre-orders the first week of 2008... 5 titles only. Seem like a good deal... or what?

I think they have been doing this for awhile. You will notice it says something like selected titles, which means crap titles.

Yeah, their ad for it at DVDTalk boldly features the artwork for 3:10 to Yuma; click on the ad to buy it at half off and whaddya get? No 3:10 to Yuma...

I couldn't be the only one foolish enough to think the title meant 50% off everything during the 1st week of 2008, could I?

lol...dont worry you are not the only one!

I thought this was like the DD 20% sale but no this sucks.

Title is missleading.

Title leads to disappointment :-(

I've never heard of the movie Select Pre-Orders 1st week of 2008.....

Guilty as well...and my eyes lit up, thinking about the Blade Runner briefcase...

They do this all the time, they just change the titles. Usually it's at least got a popular pre-order or two.

Edit: Nevermind, DVD Empire only lists one movie, The Hunting Party.

Yeah it's deceiving.

This is the first time that I've noticed that banner, so add me to the list of those fooled by the banner

Is it really only the one title they have selected?

Man, thatīs deceiving. I thought one could pre-order up to 5 titles and get them for half the price.

You probably have to actually wait for the first week of 2008 to get the 5 new titles listed. Just a guess given the promotion.

This thread has left me gelid!
