Ballsnchain: JB HiFi AU 20% off sale is live!

Beat me to it. I Just came on to post this.

November 20th:

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON: Season 1 & 2 (2022, 2024) [$109.00]

Ballsnchain: Anybody got any insight into how often Arrow Films UK run their sales? A couple months back I had a bunch of 4Ks in my cart and they were all on sale for £15 each instead of the usual £25. I mucked about and left it too late to order and pricing has gone back up.

There are lots of posts on Reddit (r/arrowvideo, r/boutiquebluray, r/4kbluray) about the sales. The general consensus seems to be that there should be one in October. The last one I think was the "Camp Arrow" in July. The one before that was "Easter Carnage" in March/April.

Welcome to the Weekly 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray & SteelBook Release Schedule for Friday October 04th. 

The Driver (1978) is the only new release in NZ this week, while Thesis (1996) is the lone Australian release. A quiet week with some minor updates and don't forget the JBAU 20% off sale is on until October 6th.

Their Shocktober sale starts next week according to their mailer

JOKER: Folie à Deux (2024) USA

Following JBAU announcement of Standard and SteelBook Edition's getting a local release, a SteelBook has been announced for the US, which may or may not be the same artwork that we are getting over here. Just a place holder at Amazon at the moment.

Oh dear! not good.

BLAZING SADDLES (1974)

Australia: December 4th • New Zealand: TBA

Welcome to the Western only Mel Brooks could create. Voted #6 on AFI’s 100 Years...100 Laughs, this comedy classic stars Cleavon Little and Gene Wilder as a sheriff and a sharpshooter defending small town from villains Slim Pickens and Harvey Korman. Featuring a brilliant cast that includes Brooks and an Oscar®-nominated* Madeline Kahn and loaded with one-liners, gags and cameos, this breakthrough parody still breaks the rules, breaks stereotypes and breaks wind all in one sitting. See it again and be offended like it’s the first time!

SPECIAL FEATURES
Inappropriate Inspiration: The Blazing Saddles Effect
Scene-Specific Commentary by Mel Brooks

I'm starting to wonder whether they've looked at buying habits and seen most purchases are during the 20% off sales and they're factoring that in now. The HotD you mentioned would be $69 with 20% off... Coincidence? 🤷‍♂️

 

I think you're on the something there! Even better is waiting for a JBAU 20% off sale and getting it even cheaper 🤣

Ballsnchain: Arrow Films Shocktober sale is up!

Not everything is on sale of course. Guess which category the ones I'm interested falls in...
