Some titles will be removed (Iron Man and Wanted for example) but these will be added:

The Dark Knight
Speed Racer
10,000 BC
Fred Clause

Plus a couple more...

Wow, Blockbuster have some good movies in this 2 for £25 deal. Is Kung Fu Panda included in this deal?

Me too, but add zavvi with extra 10% off with my virgin card (who knows now). Amazon 3 for 2 has gone to be replaced by new one on boxing day.

In my store they've only got a load of old tat in the 2 for £25 deal. I asked if Wanted and Iron Man were included and they said no, only older Blu Rays are in the deal

They were lying then,the advert that was in the paper clearly states otherwise.

Re: The Dark Knight in 2 for £25 deal at Blockbuster from Boxing Day

The other day we picked up Hell Boy II (<Truly awesome on Blu) and Mama Mia in the 2 for £25 deal.

They had Iron Man on the shelf along with Hulk, Shining and plenty of others.

I'll check it out tomorrow, might find some good deals.

Re: The Dark Knight in 2 for £25 deal at Blockbuster from Boxing Day

It's sure as there in my local. Tell them to look at the list they have behind the counter (sent to all of the establishments saying 'what's in' and 'what's out'. deals-wise)
It seems quite commonplace for Blockbusters to take their time adding titles. When wanted and Iron Man went into the list 50% of people were told that it was only on 'older titles' only to find 2 days later everything had been stickered up and there they were. Remember this is the first working day back after Christmas so alot will only be put on the shelves tomorrow, after they've been labelled etc.

Re: The Dark Knight in 2 for £25 deal at Blockbuster from Boxing Day

Not on offer at the Blockbusters in Cambridge (visiting family.) I might try again tomorrow morning and ask them to check their promotions list if it's still not on offer.

Cheers for the tip.

Trust me I've seen it in black and white .

As was the case with the previous 2 for £25 deal, some outlets took longer to start it than others.

Go back in and ask to look at his promotions list for Blu-Ray. It has the current offers, the discs that will be removed from the offer (around 4 or 5 titles)then another list of the new titles to be added (again, around 4 or 5 titles), the first on the 'add' list is The Dark Knight, the 2nd is Speed Racer.

Dark Knight is £18.99 at my one and not in the offer. They had a whole 8 titles to choose from. They didn't even have any of the titles on the advert for the offer.

Are you saying that Dark Knight was in the offer in one of the Coventry branches - if so, could you please let me know which branch?

Re: The Dark Knight in 2 for £25 deal at Blockbuster from Boxing Day

went into 2 today looking for this, 18.99 in both, not in offer, asked them to check the offers and its for Batman the GOTHAM knight (cartoon version) and not the DARK knight, although Begins is in the offer as well, anyone that gets it in the offer has done well.

Re: The Dark Knight in 2 for £25 deal at Blockbuster from Boxing Day

Well if anyone lives in the Cardiff Area, Albany Road has DEFINATELY got the Dark Knight (Not the Gotham Knight) in its 2 for £25 offer. Why others haven't is beside me.
