Disney's "A Christmas Carol" - $10 Coupon is LIVE!

[JB2K]

First some good news:

Disney is issuing a $10 coupon for Tuesday's release of 2009's "A Christmas Carol".

Now, the not-so-good news (depending on how you look at these things):

This coupon is valid for the 4-disc (Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital Copy) set, only. According to next week's Target ad (I am able to get mine a day early because I buy the Sunday paper on Saturday), that set will have a "Week 1" price of $29.99, while the Blu-ray/DVD combo will be priced at $24.99 and the DVD-only release will be $16.99 (I imagine most other stores will offer similar pricing).

So, if you were contemplating a Blu-ray purchase of this movie, you'll still do better with the 4-disc set (with coupon) -- you'll just have to pay a few $ more than with past Disney Blu-ray releases (and as Disney has done with Blu-ray for new adopters, you can hang-onto the Blu-ray 3D disc until you acquire the necessary equipment to play it).

Well that sucks that its only on the 4 disc set. I don't think we'll be buying a 3d tv anytime soon!

Does anyone know if all the special features are available on the normal bluray disc?

Typically, all Disney Blu-ray discs have the same special features as the DVD release (plus, a few exclusive extras).

What makes the Blu-ray 3D a 4-disc set, is the 3D movie needs its' own disc to store all the additional content that makes it a 3D movie.

Thanks!

Best Buy will have it for $27.99 (the 4 disc) according to their ad. Not that its much cheaper than Target.

Yes, the 3D movie is on its own disk. So you have the 3D Blu-ray, 2D Blu-ray, DVD and the special features disk.
