Folks, we're well in the throes of Black Friday. As everyone already knows, it's always one of the best times to go wild buying phyiscal media for yourself and others. As part of its Black Friday Week Sale, Amazon is cutting prices on tons of Blu-rays and 4K UHD discs. Some of the standout offers are on movies and TV shows at their lowest prices ever, like on Matt Reeves' The Batman in 4K and Season 1 of Arcane that comes with an art book. Others are matching prices that haven't been available since July 2021. Some are just decent price cuts worth jumping on. Take a look; I'll be updating through Cyber Monday. Many of these quality for Amazon's 3-for-2 promotion on movies and music that you should absolutely take advantage of while you can.
The $15 and Under Bargain Bin
What a treat it once was digging through a store's huge pile of bad movies on sale for next to nothing to find that one diamond in the rough. Luckily, the quality of the movies in Amazon's online equivalent of a bargain bin is quite good. I found a bunch of solid movies for ultra-cheap, including the aforementioned The Batman, The Thing at its lowest price since July '23, this gold Scarface 4K UHD at its lowest price since 2021, Across the Spider-Verse, Blade Runner: Final Cut, John Wick: Chapter 4, and loads more. Scroll through to see.
Great Deals on New Movies
These are sales on recently released movies now out on Blu-ray and 4K UHD, some of which are at their lowest prices ever – like Godzilla Minus One. Others are deals that maybe aren't unique to Black Friday (ahem, Deadpool & Wolverine) but still warrant some attention, especially if you're been eyeing them already.
Box Sets and Collections
As it was written: Tons of giftable (and collectable) box sets of movies and TV series are on sale at pretty steep discounts. Highlights include Denis Villenueve's two-film Dune set at its best-ever price, several eras of Batmen for cheap, all five seasons of The Wire – which, in some people's opinions (mine), is the best HBO show of all time – for a new low price, a collection of all six Terminator movies, the ultimate Alfred Hitchcock collection, and plenty of others. Scroll through to see them all.
Steelbooks and Limited Editions
A bunch of these are looking pretty dang appealing right now, especially that Stand By Me steelbook, the Spider-verse collector's edition two-film set now at its lowest price ever, The Fifth Element limited edition steelbook, and, to appease Mr. Movies himself, the movie formerly known as Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One.
