Not DVDs, but I've semi-recently started buying my movie tickets through Fandango using the AMC A List, so I'm still not paying anything while getting Fandango rewards. After every 4 movies you get a $5 off coupon for their marketplace or off a movie (in hindsight, should have used it for Weathering With You Fathom, but still hopefully that at least hits the AMC 24 after the Wednesday/Thursday showings), so when I get one I just poke around their sale movies To Own For $5 Or Less. Thus far, this is what I've got, plus the order in which I've 'purchased' them:

Slither
The Cabin In The Woods
That's My Boy
You're Next
Perfect Blue
It Follows

I had some Best Buy rewards credit to use up, so I ordered a couple of 4K movies in anticipation of getting my PS5:



I placed the order this morning, to be shipped. They arrived this evening. Pretty impressive, Best Buy. Too bad I can't fully enjoy them until Monday.

I also have these Blu-Rays pre-ordered:

The Suspect
Touki Bouki
Secrets & Lies
Jazz on a Summer's Day
Satantango


I was gonna get Three Films by Luis Bunuel but I think I'll wait for the next B&N sale.

Bought Capone on bluray for a buddy. Not because it's good but to make him watch it because it's top tier trash.

I have had my first YesAsia.com experience. Thanks to MT for putting me on!

I have four Kore-edas I haven't seen and couldn't get at, so I ordered Japanese edition Blu-Rays with English subs. They are:
Nobody Knows
Distance
Air Doll
After Life

Of course you need a multi-region Blu-ray player to take care of business, and in 5 days I will open the one my mom got my for my 39th birthday. Then, I finish the Kore-eda catalog of narrative features!
