Stiff Competition Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) My black friday haul...and my haul so far for the Barnes and noble Criterion sale that has been going on this past month. I may pick up a few more before it ends in a couple days. I have done very well between the 10% member discount and additional 20, 30 and 40 % off coupons on top of it all.

Powerage5 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Scream 1-4, No Country for Old Men, Cabin in the Woods, Argo, Ted, This is the End, The Watch, The Conjuring, Taken, Goldeneye, The Aviator, World War Z.Must stop...Black Friday deals...so tempting.Taken is great. Need to watch it again one of these days.Amazon has World War Z for $7.99, or 3D for $14.99. Gotta decide if I should buy that one in 3D for when I've got the right TV...

Black Sabbath Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I haven't seen the film in 3D yet, but you might as well just get that version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Got Season 3 of Hung (I bought Seasons 1 and 2 months ago and haven't watched them yet) in the mail today. It was like $6.99 so why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Completely forgot that The World's End came out last week. I need to find a deal on it and scoop it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Picked these up today:EDIT: Honestly, not sure if I want to keep this version of The Wolverine or return it and get the regular 3D version. This one looks cool but apparently the box is unnecessarily large and the digipak is fairly slim, even considering it has 4 discs. The regular 3D edition comes in a thicker, black amaray case as well. They're only about a $2-3 dollar difference though, so we'll see I guess.

Nosaj Thing Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 BS, in my honest opinion that Wolverine set is awful, I decided not to get it for the same exact reason you're describing. I'm getting the regular 3D version instead and will be pretty happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Where is the Pain and Gain Blu from?I think it's $25 at BestBuy.I will pick that up when it drops in price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Yeah, I like the box a lot, but it definitely is larger than necessary. I think I will return this one and get the regular 3D version.And yeah, the Pain & Gain blu is just the new "Special Collector's Edition" that came out yesterday. I got mine at Best Buy for $25 which is the cheapest it is anywhere, but my store only got 2 copies and I've been wanting to pick the movie up since the original release, so I didn't mind paying that. Also it's one of my favorite movies of the year The case is red also, so it looks pretty cool. Watched the movie again last night, so hoping to check out the special features soon.

AxlisOld Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I've brought this up before, but it just pisses me off and I wonder. Is anyone dumb enough to pay "full price" for Blu-rays? A new movie comes out, and Best Buy will charge 34.99 for it (already fucking ridiculous) and it'll say, "list price: 59.99." What the actual hell? I haven't bought The Avengers yet because everyone still charges 29.99 for it. Fuck that noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't bought The Avengers yet because everyone still charges 29.99 for it. Fuck that noise.Pretty sure there was a deal when Avengers came out that you could get it for like $20? Target had the incorrect price so you could go there or price match somewhere else. That's what I did. And then some months later the Best But exclusive edition in the big box was on clearance for $20. Get with the deals, hooray for tolerance!And honestly, those large prices/list prices are the MSRP prices and store almost never have them listed as that. Even if it's not on sale, it's still "on sale".To answer your question though, I'd say only really stupid people do it, or just rich people who don't care. If I was rich and there was a movie I really wanted I wouldn't care what the price was probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 You're right. I remember Amazon pricematched them and I got Avengers 3D for $20 on release date.I find it funny that AxlisOld doesn't have Avengers yet. That's so 2012.

Don't give a fuck about any of the characters except Iron Man, but I heard it's basically a Downey movie with supporting characters, and it seems like you may have to have seen it to get Iron Man 3, which I also do not own or haven't seen.I've brought this up before, but it just pisses me off and I wonder.

New releases should be 19.99, 3D, 24-29.99. Lol Best Buy is selling the Avengers DV fucking D for 19.99 still. Can't imagine why people download.

New releases should be 19.99, 3D, 24-29.99. Lol Best Buy is selling the Avengers DV fucking D for 19.99 still. Can't imagine why people download.To be honest, that's typically what the movies are around when they come out. Sometimes they'll be 22.99 which seems to be a common price for new releases with 3D releases being around $25-28. But I mean just about every store has the new Fast and the Furious movie on sale for 19.99 next week. Obviously if you wait you can get just about any movie a lot cheaper down the road, but if not, movies aren't usually priced too terribly when they first come out for the most part. If it's a movie I really want I'll get it when it first comes out, but if not (i.e. 2 Guns), I can wait until the price drops a bit.And don't be calling just Best Buy out on it, Amazon has the DVD at the same price. People give Best Buy shit all the time, but honestly they're usually pretty fair with sale prices, or at least the same as other retailers Also Matt, look into this deal. You can get both The Avengers and Iron Man 3 through it, as well as some other great movies all for a great price in the end: http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=221740 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlisOld Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yea I shouldn't really piss on Best Buy exclusively, they just have other fuck ups that have left bad tastes in my mouth so I tend to use them as my whipping boy.Just watched Cabin in the Woods again, fuck me that is one of the most original movies in recent memory. 6.96 at Wal Mart on Saturday (black friday price).

I always see pretty good deals on there but I'm always afraid they're gonna be former rentals to dipshits who don't know how to care for a disc or don't care.Ali Edited December 5, 2013 by AxlisOld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I've gotten around at least 20 movies from them and only 2 weren't as expected. The one had a case that was a little messed up but nothing to really fuss about, and the other one I did receive a rental version as opposed to an actual used copy like I should have gotten but they refunded me the money for it so I got it for free.I'd definitely recommend them, honestly, especially with deals like this. You can get some great prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Around $90 for all of them. Probably shouldn't have done it since I'm tight on cash, but the B2G1 free for the last 3 titles pushed me to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
