Default Movies you've bought that have never been on sale?

Just wondering...which movies have you guys bought that never been on sale?

Im looking at a few on my Wish List and it seems Blood Diamond, The Beach and The Prestige are just a few that haven't been discounted since they were added to iTunes in 2013 (according to Blu-ray.com)

Im considering on buying these movies for their full price tbh

I've (ufortunately?) bought several Disney movies that haven't been on sale. Ones like Mulan (it went on sale recently, but not that I can recall before that), Fox and the Hound, etc that didn't come with digital copies on their Blu-ray release.

Yup - usually just Disney at full price. Picked up Pixar Short Films Collections Volumes 1 & 2 just tonight. Don't know if they have ever gone on sale but Disney sales happen so seldom and it is so hard to know what they are going to put on sale.

[Show spoiler]It's hard to buy digital copies at full price ($13, $15, $18, $20). It blows when you break down and buy something, and then it goes on sale for a lower price at some point. If they're expensive they'd better be rare (not on Blu in the US, for starters) and/or have a lot of good iTunes extras.

I have a bunch on my wish list that never budge in price. It's very rare that I'll break down and buy one. Sometimes I'll buy one on Amazon because they're either, A) Having a sale -or- B) Their price is just lower at full price. I don't like doing that because I'd prefer to own it in iTunes, but I have done it. Amazon had Dan In Real Life for $13 last October. It's a Touchstone title, so on iTunes it's ALWAYS $18. I had $10 in no-rush shipping credits on Amazon, so I bought it there at the $13 price point ($3 out of pocket).

I've gotten much more patient at waiting over the past year or so, both with Blu-rays and with iTunes. I'll wait for a price drop or I just won't buy it. I have Dish Network too. Occasionally HBO (or whomever) will have 5 movies I really want in HD airing over the next month. I'll subscribe for a month and DVR those movies rather than buy them on iTunes. Then I'll cut the channel the next month. I did that with Cinemax this month because they had Miami Vice, A History Of Violence, and a few others.

These fockers never budge on iTunes though. They just sit on my wish list, taunting me:

When In Rome - $18
