I bought:
A Night at the Opera
A Day at the Races
Black Legion
The Fearless Vampire Killers
Freaks
The Incredible Mr. Limpet
West World
Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf
Murder She Said....
Angels in the Outfield

Last time I bought something by accident, they let me swap it. :fc:

Slightly annoying that it took me 15 minutes to figure out what I wanted but didn’t already have. I bought those Marx Bros ones in the past year. :lol:

It's really easy to do. Unlike a Fandango At Home sale, you've got to cross check every one. I made a mistake once and they swapped with me for another movie I requested, no problem.

I got :

Westworld
Papillon
Blow-Up
Strangers on a Train
A Night at the Opera
A Day at the Raves
King Kong
Ocean's 11
Dark Passage
Camelot

I noticed Camelot was unavailable on VUDU before I bought it. Maybe a weird rights issue? That movie was featured in a movie or TV show I saw recently - I can't remember which one...

I was cross checking on Fandango and noticed that some listed as HDX on one site was SD on the other, so I skipped those to be safe.

It was one of the ones that I got, and it showed up on my VUDU.

It shows with a search now. It didn't this morning.

Fandango has all three The Santa Clause movies for 7.99

Microsoft rewards has punch card to get a free movie.
YMMV - says "Offer exclusive to select Microsoft Rewards users only."

You can only do 1 punch per 24 hours.
(step 3 takes 13 days of searches, but looks like they are already counting before you get to it)

The thumbnails for each step show movies: Wizard of Oz; Dune; Barbie & Beetlejuice Beetlejuice - I hope there's more choices

So I finally heard back from them and they will not give me a replacement. Luckily it was only $1. In the future, I'm going to be extra careful to make sure I don't accidentally buy a duplicate code

That's shitty of them. Fortunately it was only a buck lost.

Yeah, I replied that that was disappointing considering I spend hundreds of dollars a year at Fanflix. I'm probably going to buy at Apple or Fandango at Home now if they're the same price. I prefer Apple anyway. At least it was only $1.

They replied and sent me a 10% off code.

Re: The kinda all streaming deals thread
 
I hate how little information Fanflix provides with every movie they list. Usually not even the star of the film is listed. So most of the time I have to cross-reference with VUDU anyway.

No idea who they're matching but itunes has Orange is the New Black at an all time low of... 7.99.

Tempting... but not sure I would ever watch it again.

I loved the book, but I wasn't that big of a fan of the series. I saw it today and was tempted, but I didn't even make it through season one when I first watched the show.

It's pretty uneven from season to season. Season 1 was probably the best season, so if you didn't like that enough to finish then I wouldn't bother continuing.

Fandango deal of the day is GOT complete for 39.99. It has been this low on itunes a couple of times but not recently, and my understanding is Fandango is 4k and itunes is not.

Correct.

Fanflix DOTD was SWAT the complete series for $24.99. 8 seasons and most are 22 episodes per season.

I’ve seen every episode and even though it’s on Netflix, I got it. I freaking love the show. The regular price is $74.99

There is also a promo code for FUNDAYS10 for an extra 10% off.

The only physical media for the series is DVD and of course I prefer HD.

If you’re curious, it was cancelled on CBS, but it does end with closure.

I know most of you who post in this thread probably aren’t interested in police dramas, but IMO it’s a really enjoyable action show.

Some newer releases on sale for $4.99 at Apple TV:
Mickey 17
Companion
Final Destination Bloodlines
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Juror #2
Joker 2

These titles were also on sale 5 for $15 in Fandango at Home Sale that ended. I only needed Mickey 17 so I passed on the sale and decided to wait until Mickey 17 was $4.99 and I only had to wait a week.

Thanks… grabbed Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

I don't remember Beetlejuice Beetlejuice being in that 5 for 15 sale, man I would've done another order.

It may have just been the first Beetlejuice, but I had trouble picking out 5 that I didn't already have and I didn't really want The Watchers or Joker 2.

Fanflix dotd is a sale on WB Discovery/Cartoon Network cartoons:
https://fanflix.co/c/1lkfnn0uzj8fo-f...wzAZfZQ.VXnyvG

gotta buy 2 or more, and some of the prices have been lower (mainly because they have had some killer deals in the past) but still fantastic deals for some pretty long seasons.

fujishig 12-11-25 08:43 AM

Re: The kinda all streaming deals thread
 
Fanflix dotd is 3 for 15, once again for WB Discovery movies/1st seasons, lots of overlap with the previous (and better) 5 for 15 deal. But if you picked up the first Crisis on Infinite Earths through that one you can now get parts 2 and 3.
