Who's all waiting for The Dark Knight to price drop before you buy? - Blu-ray Forum

blu_world · 12-13-2008, 03:44 AM

This is for people like me,who've seen in IMAX theaters 4 times Plus and would only watch it again for it to below the full retail price.

im a fan of the dark knight,but not so much to rush out and buy it blu-ray on release day,many people are buying to now because they haven't saw it Or as a Xmas gift right???

anyone else saw this movie so many times in theater you want to wait till it's cheaper?,i Do.

i'm setting up a vote poll,so go ahead.

cheapest your going to find it on sale (when it does go on sale) is 19.99. is all that wait worth $3? i say no.

jj5206 · 12-13-2008, 03:50 AM

i've already bought one Dark Knight dvd and one blu-ray for Christmas gifts and am probably going to get my own copy for Christmas....

GoYanks · 12-13-2008, 03:51 AM

I'm getting it as an x-mas gift...

AlexCruz · 12-13-2008, 03:53 AM

I already bought the bat-pod edition at the midnight release, and I plan on getting the steelbook as well. This movie is too good to wait a couple of months just to save $2.

Moefiz · 12-13-2008, 03:54 AM

24.99 isn't expensive compare to some of the new releases out there.I got my copy already and after this week it will be back up to 29.99 or 34.99.

blu_world · 12-13-2008, 03:54 AM

what about the fellow Canadians paying CDN$ 26.95

I don't think the price will rise...

jk1138 · 12-13-2008, 03:58 AM

I am waiting for Christmas, and if I do not get it then, I WILL get it on the 26th!

Blu Man · 12-13-2008, 04:03 AM

I paid 55 bucks for it!! And i'd do it again!! Then again, I got it two weeks before the release date. Best 55 buck i've ever spent. I would have paid a 100 bucks for it!!!!

BoomerKS · 12-13-2008, 04:12 AM

It prolly won't go down to 19.99 for a couple of months---Why cut the price when everyone wants it? If you think that waiting a couple of months to save $5 is worth it, go ahead. But I would head to BB tomorrow and get it for 24.99 and enjoy it immediately.

PVJAG · 12-13-2008, 04:23 AM

I didn't hesitate with this one. Day one purchase for me..

You complain that the price of the Dark Knight on BD is to high yet you've seen it 4 times on IMAX and you are dressed like the Joker in your Avatar? That dosen't make ANY since.

Blu Titan · 12-13-2008, 04:43 AM

TDK is $25 for a three disc edition that includes a digital copy version and a slip cover. Not a bad price at all, specially for this movie. This movie is to be enjoyed now.

MarkJ801 · 12-13-2008, 05:08 AM

If I don't get it as a gift for Christmas, then I will wait for the next Columbia House BOGO and get it for around $14. Or if there is sale somewhere else for about that price.

I don't think it's about being cheap. I know this may come as a surprise to you but there are some people out there who don't care about seeing a movie as much as someone else. Hell, I didn't even see Batman Begins until about a year and a half after it came out on DVD. And not to my surprise, the world did not come to an end.

The same goes with The Dark Knight. I want to watch the movie but it's not at the top of my priorities list. If I get around to it in the next year I'd be fine with that.

Goodguy818 · 12-13-2008, 05:21 AM

Lets see...I bought the Batpod and the blu-ray just so i can have case w/ slipcover so came to $67 to have both.

ElvistheSniper · 12-13-2008, 05:24 AM

I bought it tonight at walmart for $23.99. I really didn't need it tonight but I was too curious to see how it looked on BD. Money well spent, really it may be awhile before this one hits $15 or 17 dollars. Money well spent anyway.

Or some people are more Marvel fans then DC fans, or just dislike Batman in general.
