I'm waiting for the DVDplanet 20% off sale & using my store credit for it then. Waste of money to buy it now.

This set could be $250 and I wouldn't care. Yes, I love these movies THAT much.

Same here, but it makes no sense to get it now, when in a couple of weeks it's going to be another $20 cheaper.

Probably nothing for me. I'm not firmly into BR yet, just buying as I find great deals. I'm sure I'll end up buying the Planet of the Apes set eventually, but not until it drops significantly.

I'm gonna pick up Get Smart but I might wait a week or two until I can find it used. I'm getting KUNG FU PANDA on Friday for sure though.

DD has it for $105.00. Amazon has it for $91.97 right now. 20% off 105 is $84, that's $8 my math....

Get Smart went from an automatic blind buy to just a netflix rental because of this.

Just got mine from WHV, Warner is really into the holograph slip covers of late... maybe they budgeted for that instead of the lossless track lol.

Has anyone who has ordered Bender's Game or Planet Of The Apes (first movie only) from Amazon seen their order go to Shipping Soon yet?

Usually my stuff is processing by now. Looks like I may have to get these locally.

If I find Get Smart at a good price. If not I'll put it on the Christmas list.

I really enjoyed Get Smart, so I'll be buying that tomorrow, even though it only has DD 5.1 audio.

Just recently went Blu-ray and promised myself and my wife that buying habits would change. Used to make A LOT of blind buys and I'm jonesing for Transsiberean big time...and it's making it a whole lot more difficult that it's only $19 at Amazon. My first tough test. I'm trying to stay offline as much as I can.
