There you go, you rich bastards.

 

[kaji7p56]

Thanks, just picked up a few as gifts for the family.

 

[zionoverfire]

That's a bit over $20 a movie

 

[WhipSmartBanky]

Ships free with Super Saver Shipping...

Would you REALLY trust $5k of DVDs to go by the cheapest method? For that much they should hand deliver them.

 

[PenguinoMF]

But you're saving $2,501.00. How could you pass this up?

 

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Holy shit. I'd only want a few of those movies though, not really worth the investment.

 

[cheapass Gundam]

The only Criterion releases I want and don't already have happen to be in their out-of-print list.

 

[beerguy961]

That's an assload of DVDs for an assload of money...

I'm tempted to buy it just because I'd want to see the package, but my CC has a $50 limit...

[Edit] it's assload not crapload....

 

[KingDox]

that's an insane amount of dvds. Can you imagine how long it would take to watch all those and the extras?

I just hope that this means there is a glut of these dvds and they will soon discount the price on them.

With 2,500 titles, I don't enough time to read all those names. I'm not that rich also.

 

[Xevious]

Its a good deal for the rich. I already have a few Criteron movies though.

 

[bignick]

Sucks it doesnt include the OOP ones, those are the best movies!

 

[Kaijufan]

:shock: Thats a lot of DVDs.

 

[Nephets]

How is that a good deal? Who would spend that much? NOBODY will like all of those movies, and you could just buy them seperately for, what, 20 dollars each?

 

[greendc27]

but its available for the first time...

Actually there's like maybe 5 criterion collection DVDs that retail at $20 or under. However, without some of the kickass OOP ones I'd never consider this.

 

[nasum]

I fit had Silence of the Lambs and the John Woo films in it, I'd buy it without a moment's hesitation...

Yeah, typically Criterion DVDs retail for $30 to $40 each (a bit less on DDD). This is a good deal if for some insane reason you want them all. Or, you could have just got them all from DeepdiscountDvd for less than $20 a pop during their 20% sale.

Yeah, I stupidly passed on the John Woo films I wanted a while ago and of course now they are all out of print. #-o

 

[CheapyD]

No Robocop, no deal

 

[vherub]

to the person who recommends the police academy collection instead

awesome

 

[Demolition Man]

Blah. I picked up the Criterion "Silence Of The Lambs" new for $10 a few years ago. Still in the wrapper to this day.
