50% off Blu-Ray Titles @ Amazon

I couldn't wait for Little Miss Sunshine anymore so I just picked it up at Best Buy this week for $15. I probably won't bother DD'ing on this or Warner's late releases of A Scanner Darkly & The Wicker Man. This non-day and date crap is annoying.

If you were going to get both, which I did, it adds another incentive. I think these are the only titles that have any such deal.

Man, this kind of sale has me glad the 3 times I went to pull the trigger on a PS3, I chickened out. It gets harder and harder to resist however. Anyways, Im sure sometime this year I'll have one and then kick myself that I didnt get in on the sale.

This 50% deal is a GREAT DEAL any way you cut it. Sorta like the 5 free HD DVDs with the purchase of Toshiba players. Some of you feel the need to come in here and criticize. That is neither appreciated here nor welcome here.

Just a heads up that I haven't seen mentioned: check your Amazon Gold Box every day for another 2% off on some of these... today in mine, I see Fifth Element + Tears Of The Sun for $13.77.

If you like the 80s and 90s action flicks starting with Stallone and Schwarzenegger and then moved on to Jean-Claude Van Damme, Steven Seagal and Snipes then this fills the void the recent action films have left. Everything possible explodes, there is some real cheesy moments in the dialog, and the fight scenes are way over the top - I mean they make wrestling look real and unscripted. It is everything a lot of the oh so serious people around here hate in a movie. The disc has a good amount of cheesy extras and the transfer was pretty good overall though it did not blow me away and there were definately a couple scenes I thought were not up to par. As the DVDTalk review did, I would not hesitate to get this if you are a fan of this kind of movie and you folks know who you are. The only complaint I have is Cena played it a little too serious, if he had played it like the rest of the cast did it might have been even better.

Most people seem to be picking up Fox titles. Maybe they will get the message that people want to buy their titles, but only when they are priced similiar to Warner.
