I'm down for Lost in Translation and The Pianist for certain. I'm also mulling over 12 other titles.

Its a complex algorithm of how much do I want to see it vs. how often will I watch it vs. what is the likelihood of it showing up on Blu-ray Disc in the near future.

"Pitch black" still shows up as a 14.95 title, did you find a different link??

Edit: I didn't see your previous post.

Yep. I noticed this as I was marking some titles in my Cart as 'Save For Later'. I guess it'll be later still now.

At least I was able to get Lost in Translation and The Pianist for $11.95 a piece, as well as $35 in price protection credits.

Not for me.

I have a few titles in my Save for Later list, and two are still $11.95. However, I would swear that when I went in had a look after seeing this thread, Tremors (also in my save for later list) went from $14.95 to $11.95, but now it is in fact back to $14.95.

I pulled the trigger on Bourne Supremacy and Ultimatum ($11.95 and $16.95). I figure if the price keeps dropping Amazon will honor the reduction up to 30 days, is it?

Still waiting on a big drop on ST:TOS and Complete Matrix.

I don't think you're likely to see much bigger than $41.99 for the 3-disc (58%) and $49.99 for the 4-disc (same).

I would've jumped on some of those titles at $11.95, but I'm not biting at $14.95. Besides, the prices are sure to go down a little more with the inevitable clearance sales.

MattH. · 03-04-2008, 11:48 PM

I couldn't resist the BOURNE trilogy. [sigh]

Alfonso_M · 03-07-2008, 07:49 PM

"American Gangster " is now down to 17.95 and "Pitch Black" is $9.95.
