Weekend Deal: Blu-ray bargains on Amazon

amazon blu-ray disc sale march 2009I didn’t want to leave you bargain-less after that eCost post, so here’s a goodie from Amazon.

Ending March 22, 2009, Amazon is offering a large collection of Blu-ray movies starting at $9.99 each. Even though the site says “starting at $13.99,” there are six discs being sold for $9.99:

  • Stargate (Extended Cut)
  • Total Recall
  • The Devil’s Rejects (Unrated)
  • Rambo - First Blood
  • Rambo - First Blood Part II
  • Rambo III

OK, so a Rambo trilogy for $30 might not be uber impressive and you likely already own four or five versions of the original Stargate movie. But, hit that “$10-$15” link and there are 105 flicks in that range at a 40-60% saving including the first two seasons of Weeds for $11.49 each, Terminator 2 for $11.49, Clockwork Orange ($13.49) and Afro Samurai: Season One ($14.99).

In the $15-$20 price bracket there’s 188 movies including 300 ($17.49), Wall-E ($19.49), Cloverfield ($19.49), The Warriors Ultimate Director’s Cut ($16.49), all the Mission Impossible and Pirates of the Caribbean movies, the remaining Rambo movie and, lo and behold, Final Fantasy - The Spirits Within ($16.49).

The $20-$30 bracket may not seem quite as impressive but you’ll find a few films as lower-than-category prices while others are simply discounted. For example: Iron Man ($16.99), Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ($16.99) and Incredible Hulk ($23.49).

The Over $30 bracket has only a few sets and isn’t really worth looking at unless you really need Lost: Season Four ($43.99) or a horror flick starter pack ($37.99) on Blu-ray.

This is what movie companies like to call a “library starter” so you can get a bunch of movies to start building a library in the latest format. That assumes, of course, you either believe Blu-ray will last for a while or you’ll have your PS3 running forever.
