Yeah, 25. My credit card thanks me, my wallet and bank account are currently not speaking to me. :D
I used that coupon for 20% off so many times B&N finally cut me off! HAHA!
Sadly I'm still at work...pretty sure I never leave. :(

Might watch Replusion tonight, or Life of Brian on DVD, talk about two different ends of the collection.

I bought at least 25 on this sale. I thnk more. I have 60 now, all 15 blus and 45 dvds. I used to have like 8 or 9 dvds I think. I'll post specifics soon maybe.

I've been super busy..... so I'm going out tonight, and plan on staying up as long as it takes, to get a viewing of "Repulsion" in tonight before I go to bed.......

Yeah, I think I'll be pushing about 80 total (not counting the doubles I have in DVD and Blu). I'm hoping to one day post all that I bought.

I'm trying not to order anything else, but for some reason "The Vanishing" is sticking out in my mind to buy. As well as Hemmingway's "The Killers". I don't know why, they're just calling out to me. I probably should buy one of the box sets if anything, like Lawrence Olvier (sp? man, I know that's wrong) Ahhh, thinking too much, must resist urge to buy more....:ohnoes:

Yeah, I'm planning on going to a party too, but after 11 hours at work, and having to get up early to come back tomorrow, I'm not so sure...

"Repulsion" is tempting though... ;)

I had the same thought. I have to order l'avventura on their website because the copy I got is damaged (gonna return it in store, not sure what I'm getting yet)... other than that I am going to yet again see if anything catched my eye but I'm thinking it would be smartest to grab a box set or two.

I don't think we should be concerned, unless there is a noticeable, practical difference in image quality. The bitrate number on its own is simply not very important. That's all I'm saying.

Watched Repulsion last night.....WOW!!!

Have all Criterion BDs & Have Not been disappointed! I can not say that about other bds....

Watched Rashomon on DVD and Repulsion on blu-ray. They're both damn fine looking discs - but watching Repulsion right after, really made me want Rashomon on blu-ray. :D

The only Criterion I have on Blu is The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. But I have rented a few others through my online Blockbuster: The Man Who Fell to Earth (Not really something I liked.), The Third Man (I enjoyed it very much.), and El Norte (Has to be my favorite movie I've seen from Criterion so far.).

I'm getting more and more interested in the Criterion Collection Blus. Are there any others that you would recommend me seeing? I've already seen The Last Emperor, but not on Blu. Are there any actually worth buying? So I can take advantage of the $19.99 offer.

:D BUY ALL OF THEM :D

Going by the two you've liked, so far, I'd probably recommend The Wages of Fear and The Seventh Seal.

Just bought a B&N's Membership savings card,I thought you get a coupon book when you join that has $5.00 off DVD and CD coupons,etc.i didnt receieve that when i payed my 25 bones, oh well, i;m sure you can't use the DVD coupon on a blu anyway! Was able to find "For All Minkind",the only blu they they had on the shelf,WTF!!!:mad: and get it for 18.00 + tax. This club IS NOT that great of a deal IMO,will be cancelling and getting my 25 bucks back before he 30 days are up!:D Really wanted Bottle Rocket,Fear and Loathing and the single disc of Brazil,they had NONE of these in stock in my store today,their Criterion selection was VERY SLIM!!!:mad: One of the ones I wanted, the Olivier's Shakespeare set had "floaters" in the box,GRRR!:mad:

You know the membership works online too?
You get free express shipping on orders over $25.
Coupon codes are out there, just Google " Barnes and Noble Coupons" you'll get a big list.
I'm not sure if you get a refund if you choose not to be a member.

All the good coupon have expired,just checked! I was just dissapointed my store was so bare with the Criterion stuff!

Oh, and don't forget to split up your order for maximum coupon abuse.
Example: You're buying 4 DVDs at $15 each. You have a code for 20% off. You should send 2 orders each with 2 DVDs, so you net free shipping and you'll probably be able to use the coupon twice.
TA-DAAA!:idea:

There IS NO code for 20 percent off,just checked!

Behold the EXAMPLE in all it's glory!

I know there's no 20% off right now, there is a 10% floating around though.

What is it? can't find when I search!

According to RetailMeNot The code is H4B4R3A

Hope this helps!
