Let's see you get 12 movies (which you didn't pick) for $284.95. That comes out to $23.66 each! You end up paying MORE for several of these movies so what's the point of bundling them together?!? Sets like these have to be way cheaper to justify the purchase.

Anyone who gets this set for $284.95 should have his/her head examined! C'mon Amazon, give us better deals than this!

It's truly insane to see such a high price tag on an almost random picked movie collection. It's got a wide variety, but it's hard to guess anyone loves more than half the package!

As the other user I'd ask Amazon to post for better offers!

Lets see would I rather pay $225 dollars, the cost of these DVD's together separately or pay the $306 for the bundle???

So, the bundle is now $305.99. A previous reviewer from July 24, 2008 tagged it at $284.95. Instead of coming down in price over time, it went up. Just looking up Black Hawk Down, I can get it new from $16 to $20. Hellboy runs $14 to $20. 12 movies for $305.99 = $25.50 per movie. Way too expensive.

First it was $285, then $306. Now hold on to your hats. It is now $407!!! Amazon.....are you out of your mind? Prices of blue ray discs are slowly going down, but you offer a 12 pack with a very strange selection and you just raised the price of the pack $100?? Brilliant marketing strategy. And where did you come up with this assortment of movies? It doesn't make any sense. IF any person in America buys this idiotic 12 pack it would floor me.

Yeah so I just did a breakdown of the prices from Amazon and if you bought all of these separate from the site it would cost you 218.88, brand new. If you decided to buy new between Amazon and the marketplace for the best price you would be spending less than 182.00. Although I like almost all of the movies it clearly is nowhere close to a good value.

I actually already own most of these, so I know for a fact that it is MUCH cheaper to buy them separately than in this "Bundle". If the price were dropped, to entice new blu-ray player owners, it would be a hit.

I say, drop it to $200 and market it as a blu ray starter kit, promoting it as a good match for every blu ray player and PS3.

Cut it to a third the price, then we'll talk. If you want to sell in bulk, offer a bulk price, not this nonsense.

I was a bit interested when I first noticed this Blu-Ray bundle.

It only took me a split second to realize it to be a disappointing ripoff.

I guess I am the only lucky one who got a great deal on this box set. I paid $165.94 for this set in June 2008. I had seen all of the movies except for "Layer Cake" with Daniel Craig and I was pleasantly surprised by the story. I expected to get a B movie but what I got was a movie that held my interest throughout even though the "good guy" is really a bad guy. However, there is no way I would pay $285 for this set now.
