         Ditto. I was expecting to see them for last Christmas. Was very disappointed.

   lol I took one look at the massive bin full of them, and turned away. So many I want, but no way I’m going to go wading through that massive pile to find them 😛

      That’s the fun – traking through the bin, then holding it aloft – DA DA DAH DAAAAAAAAAAAH.

      [That’s the Zelda music in case you were wondering.]

         Then it all falls apart when you find that JB don’t accept your rupees.

      You can get ’em online for the same price with free shipping as well… Plus, at the handful of JB’s I visited, they not only had a couple of upright displays dedicated to these titles, but alot of them were mixed in on the regular shelves which are all sorted alphabetically making it much easier than wading through the bins.

   I had a quick look at lunch time today but didn’t spot anything I wanted. I might try a different JB on the way home though.

   I go to JB all the time, the only problem with sales like these is that more often than not, you need to buy multiple movies and I already own at least one of the only three that interest me.

      You know at $15.98 each for Blu-ray, even if you just buy one it’s still an awesome deal. You don’t need to buy into the get one free deal, which is basically trying to get you to buy things you don’t want.

         Don’t try and bring logic into my purchasing decisions. It just doesn’t work. :p

   Picked up Dark Night, Batman Begins and 300. Don’t have a Blu-ray player yet but this was too good to pass up.

   Was going to pick up The Notebook for the wife but there were no copies there/left.

    Ordered online so as not to have to wade through the mass of poo-poo.

    Got Kickass, Evil Dead, Terminator 2, The Mummy, The Hangover & (the best Arnie movie of all time) Last Action Hero.

    We’re gonna need a bigger boat. And by boat, I mean shelf.

    I’ve got a list of about 9 I’m trying to narrow down to just 3.

    Funnily enough, I’ve never seen The Notebook. It is however, one of my husband’s favourite movies. 😛

       Well on a related note – just like Mark – I don’t like The Notebook either – it’s just… er… being saved for a future wifey…

    According to dudes on Giz, this deal also appears on their online store, and they have free shipping.

    Haven’t checked myself, because if I do, I will buy stuff.
    And I will get in trouble.

    I’ve already got Batman Begin, Dark Knight, Gran Torino, Terminator 2 and District 9. The rest aren’t so great, bar Pulp Fiction. That being said I still need to try Kick Ass at some point, only because of word of mouth. The “get the girl” cliche crap ruined Zombie Land for me. I enjoyed Woody Harrelson’s acting at least.

    It’s dangerous for me, because I WORK at JB. I’m constantly exposed to the temptations of cheap blu-ray movies. In the past two weeks I’ve already bought about 15 of them. X_x

    Does anyone else spend ages at these bins putting them in order to make it easier to search for discs? I’m sure they’re in a big pile for a reason, but I can’t help but make them nice and neat…

    I was lucky enough to pickup Blade Runner The Final Cut when I was there last week.

    Also picked up Moon and Terminator Salvation for a mate.

    It’s unbelieveable at how much and how many they have in stock!

    I ended up getting Kick-Ass, Fast and Furious and District 9 so I’m pretty happy.

    I couldn’t be stuffed searching the bins. I just went to the regular shelves because I knew what I was looking for and the alphabet was my friend.

    To the LOTR extended sufferers like me, apparently Roadshow in Australia has lost the rights to distribute Newline titles just after they released the normal LOTR on blu ray so the extended versions won’t be available until someone buys the distribution rights 🙁
