Amazon Batman Begins Limited Edition Gift Set Blu-ray

For those of us who missed out on the WalMart deal a few weeks ago, Amazon has the Batman Begins Blu-Ray gift set for $14.49. In the description it shows it as a single disc (was there a single disc gift set?) but further reading makes it sound like it is indeed the 2 disc version. I guess I'll find out in a couple of days.

Here's the link:

Whoa, thanks. But it's #5 in the top 100, and ships in 1-3 weeks. We might not get this... I smell order cancellations...

I noticed Entourage S5 is $17.49, in case anyone is looking for something to add to get free shipping...

FYI, for those who haven't got Ghostbusters yet, it has decreased to $17.49. What's better is there is an automatic $5 coupon applied, making it $12.49, and if you add the Batman Begins set, you'll get free shipping. All for $26.98 (+ tax of course).

Tax?!?!?! You must live in one of the unlucky states... Good catch on the ghostbusters deal. Another good one is the 2-disc CE BD of Casino Royale for 13.99...

You pay tax on Amazon? That sucks.

Well, I don't pay tax. Maybe I got my merchants confused.

it is not adding the $5 off coupon for Ghostbusters...any ideas?

EDIT: Nevermind, just use the coupon code SONYPIC5

It's automatically taking $5 off for me. Did you start the check-out process? It says "Promotion Applied $5". If that doesn't work, try coupon GHOSTBLU.

There is also a Sony coupon, but I forgot what it is. SONYPIC5 maybe?

EDIT: Just saw you figured it out...

This is more than likely the one-discer. The review you proably read is for the DVD version and it's dated back to 2005.

There is no two-disc Blu-ray version in the U.S. The gift set simply includes the BD, two comic books, and some post cards.

Re: Amazon Batman Begins Limited Edition Gift Set Blu-ray

I have to decide if it's worth $10 to get this as opposed to just picking it up through Red2Blu. Nice looking box, but I don't know if it's worth $10.

The Limited Edition sucks, in my opinion. I was able to pick it up cheap (I forget how), but I only got it because of the movie cash for The Dark Knight.

Thanks, you both seem to be right. It's a one disc set with the added books and cards. Still, this is cheaper than the stand alone Blu-Ray version Amazon is selling. So I grabbed a copy, and I added a few books to get the free shipping. I got a conformation email saying I should receive it next week.

Thanks to both of you, I picked up Ghostbusters BD and Batman Begins BD for $26.98 - $10 GC for a grand total of $16.98. Assuming they ship them out, this was a fantastic deal for me!

Batman now is $34.99 when you click on it., Must have been a 1-day sale or something.
