More DVD goodness

[yendi]

As noted by murnkay, drewshi, and probably others*, Deep Discount DVD is having a Buy 1 get one Free sale on a whole bunch of DVD box sets. There's some utter crap, of course (The Jeff Foxworthy Show, anyone?), but there's also some gems here, including Ned and Stacey, Newsradio, and Stargate (the latter being probably the best deal -- two seasons for $32.62 total). The prices aren't that awesome before the sale kicks in, but if there are two items you want, the deals become pretty damned nice (and they do free shipping, of course).

*You'd think, since I'm on their mailing list, that DeepDiscountDVD would be one of the "others," and you'd be right. But I only got their email after I'd read murnkay's comment an drewshi's post.

I got their email myself, and commented to you, right off the bat.

[yendi]

Dammit. They like you better than me. Or you're their holy messenger, put on earth to tell me these things.

[murnkay.livejournal.com]

Can I play holy messenger and mention the bad LJ tag in this post then?

[yendi]

Praise the lawd and drive the bad tags out!

Sadly there wasn't anything I wanted in the list.

I'm waiting for Feb 14, 2006.

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, I was lucky enough to get DVD boots of the episodes, although I still want that set.

And if you're not talking about what I think you're talking about, I'm just lost.

I've seen a few of the episodes.

And Forbidden Planet has the region 2 discs for sale already.

But man that WILL be mine when it comes out. Fuck. Yes.

Since I can't get: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B8V97E/ref=bfl_upf/102-0346630-3157716?v=glance&n=130

You realize that you're the second person to link wistfully to that item in one of my posts today, right?

[murnkay.livejournal.com]

This doesn't surprise me.

You've cost me more in $$ dvds this year than anyone.

[yendi]

Woohoo! I win!

Sadly, I've taken advantage of very few of the sales myself -- even the 20% off at DDD. Money's been tight enough that I think this was our slowest year of DVD growth. I'm living vicariously through all of you!

[drewshi.livejournal.com]

Me too as you usually tip me off to Amazon goodness.

[windswept.livejournal.com]

Heh, I was just going to send you an email about this. ;^)

[yendi]

Ha! I'd even checked your LJ to see if you'd posted about it and I'd missed it!

Wait, hold up. There were sequels to both Sniper and Wild Things. Why would anyone do that?

[yendi]

Well, in the latter's case, I could see them trying to cash in on the borderline-softporn stuff, given the relative success of the first movie. No idea why they'd bother with a sequel on Sniper, but hey, this is a worl in which we get Single White Female 2, so who knows?

[texmorgan.livejournal.com]

Yes, I understand the cashing in on softporn. But to make a third of both movies.....words fail me.

[sainthuck.livejournal.com]

Cool! Thanks for the pimp - I picked up Newsradio and Rescue Me for a combined 29.87! (Granted, Rescue Me is on backorder, but I'm in no hurry.)

Holy crap, you can get both Ray Harryhausen sets for $43.
