Black Friday: Movie + Book(ish) Deals

If you're like me you're not one to camp out in front of the mall instead of spending a nice, relaxing Thanksgiving with family or to spend the wee hours of the morning fighting the crowds to save some money.

But I do like to pick up some DVDs and Blu-rays on the Black Friday deals - usually ones I already planned to buy but sometimes others than look just too tempting to pass up.

As I'm also not one to make my Black Friday list months or even weeks in advance (and I :\ thought yesterday was Monday until about 5:30) I present my list today in the hopes that it might help someone else out . . .


Most of those on my list are ones that have either been featured on a Cinema Saturday post previously and/or somehow relate to a book. To make organization/viewing a bit easier, I've added them all to an Amazon aStore (even the things that are maybe not at Amazon/not cheapest there).


Links in this post go to reviews/posts I've done about the movie/show/book but everything should all be included: here If not try the search box:
