Apocalypse Now is on for $4.99 as well as a couple of others in the Canadian store.

Disney has never had a discount or a bundle on any movie since I've been paying attention in iTunes. They're all $24.99, that's why I never buy any. We also don't have access to DMA which is a bummer.

There is a banner at top of itunes that says "Hit Movies". The $4.99 ones are at the bottom including:
Glengarry Glen Ross
Copland
Heathers
English Patient
Trainspotting

Alien directors cut is also $9.99

In the TV department on the US store, a few PBS/Masterpiece titles are reduced, the best deal of which seems to be:

- Birdsong @ $2.99 in HD (regular price $3.99, mind)

Even if it's not the greatest TV show, that's one episode's price for about 2h45 of entertainment, which is pretty good!

Well, not the lowest (link), but I don't think we can expect to ever see that price again.

3 episodes, yes, but each is almost movie-length at ~90 minutes. It's not your garden-variety 21 or 42 minute show.

Yeah I saw that post, just thought it might've been a typo or somethin coz Bluray site didnt show that previous price on it :/

Great show but i'd probably wait for the bundle to drop rather than buy just 1 season

saqibhasan101 · 04-16-2015, 06:25 PM

or wait for it to drop in the uk store again:

Sherlock, Series 1-3: Deluxe Edition £14.99

minister_x · 04-16-2015, 10:46 PM

The S1/S2 box set was definitely $7.99, for quite a while and on more than one occasion. But that was before S3 was broadcast and the huge rise in popularity of Sherlock in the US (not that it was doing terribly beforehand, mind). I don't believe the S1/S2 box set is available any more - only the three season one (which will drop again in the UK store, as Saqib says - and will probably drop to around $25 or below in the US store at some point too).

Which is probably the best idea since they are on netflix as well. So I can still watch them and enjoy them for now. Maybe around the holidays when they release the holiday special they are supposedly making. Thanks everyone for the responses.

Thanks.

Wasn't a huge fan of the film to be honest. Was a little underwhelming.

BJMRamage · 04-17-2015, 01:57 PM

bummed if that's the $4.99 weekend deal.

some of the movies on the weekend $5 sale should be that all the time.

Lol as a doctor I always laugh at that line because it's just so true when the junior doctor is like 'I should have concurred! I should have concurred!' - lots of us do the same thing.

Hunk Golden · 04-17-2015, 09:31 PM

And of course it's the f'ing director's cut again. The theatrical of Tropic Thunder and Miami Vice, etc... - they never go on sale. It's always the stupid director's cut.
