Nice, I believe the existing (French?) Blu-Ray only had the non tinted version. Not a movie I need to own, but a good move from WB for fans

I believe it had the gold-tinted version, but only in SD on a separate DVD, so this should be a genuinely new restoration.

Couple more titles announced:

Rachel and the Stranger (1948) - "This new presentation restores nearly 15 minutes of footage cut from the film over 65 years ago. Also restored is the screen credit for its blacklisted writer Waldo Salt, which was removed from the film by RKO for its 1954 theatrical re-release."

Blood on the Moon (1948)

One more:

Sweet Bird of Youth (1962)

Hell yeah!

It didn’t hold up quite as well on a revisit but Blood on the Moon finally coming to blu ray is pretty exciting

The 4/$44 sale is on again, in case anyone else missed that email.

I'm going through a Richard Brooks spell—anyone have strong feelings about The Last Hunt?

I happened to watch it this afternoon (not my first viewing, btw). Terrific western with fantastic outdoor locations, way ahead of its times...and great HD transfer, too.

Wasn't shipping for this deal free in the past? Regardless $2.50 reduced shipping isn't too shabby - I guess it helps cover rising postal costs.

I think they changed to charging last sale. Also, apparently the $100 free threshold is based on MSRP, so it should be free shipping for 5+ titles?

I had no idea they released Where the Boys Are on blu-ray, can't not participate now

Was just about to place my order when WB announced that they aren't accepting any more orders due to COVID-19. Well that was an ill-timed sale.

DeepDiscount apparently has most titles on sale for ~$12 each with code QUEENOFSHARKS

Awesome, good looks - grabbed a few to tide me over until WB inevitably re-ignites their sale when manufacturing ceases suspension

Yeah, last sale. Believe folks on BD.com posted that the free shipping minimum is $150. Guess it's academic for now. Actually got an order in earlier, hope it ships and USPS is functioning well enough to get it to my door.

The sale has been cancelled due to COVID-19 shutting down fullfillment centers.

Yep, see a few posts up

I had managed to get my order in before the shutdown (and got a confirmation email). The shipping was free on a seven disc order.

Right, I meant to come back and modify my post. Though the minimum's $150, they're going by SRP, so seven titles does the trick.

4 for $44 sale is back up and running

The WBShop site shows free shipping on orders over $100, and the email promoting this sale indicates free shipping on orders $150+. I just ordered 9 Blu-rays for $99 +tax and got free shipping.

It’s based on the MSRP, not total with discount
