CAGiversary!
Ok....so I got my 5 free HD DVDS.....HOWEVER, there was a note saying (along the lines of) "Unfortunately, some of the DVDs you requested aren't available. We gave you other DVDs and hope you enjoy them." I was like WTF! I just gotten 2 of the 5 movies i've requested!!!!! I'm extremely mad because I REALLY REALLY wanted to see The Thing (one of the movies they didn't have). I'm also effing made they gave me The Departed which I already have!!!! And then they gave us like 4 more war movies! Gosh, I'm tired of war movies. I really wanted to see The Thing. At least I got Aeon Flux...anyone else having this problem?!
 
....because of my original post...and yes, I got free HD DVDs so there's nothing I should be complaining about,...but I was soooo looking forward to this moment it was like broken into a million pieces. Oh well....life goes on. I might buy the ones I don't have on Blu-Ray if I buy the DVD player later.
 
inb4 "Best. Deal. Ever."

Also, it's a shame you didn't get The Thing, it's one of my personal favorite movies and I think it looks great in HD especially for an older movie.
 
That's on you for not getting the HD-DVD player quicker. It says right there supplies are limited so why the bitching?

I mailed out the free Blu-Ray offer out on February and I expect worse. Whatever, it's free.
 
i wish my movies would come so I could see if I got my copy of the Thing or i'll buy it from deep discount for 9.99

Dude, one of your selections was Aeon Flux...how good could your other selections that you didn't get have been? :lol:
 
I was going to mail out my rebate form yesterday, but I didn't want my food to get cold, so I decided to eat my lunch instead. No free movies for me.
 
Same thing happened to me for Blu-Ray. I sent the offer in October. Didnt get them until two weeks ago. And only like 2 of what I wanted.
 
Well, the others were Troy, The Thing, and the Frighteners replaced from Alexander, Born on the 4th of July, and The Departed....
 
well that makes me kinda excited because I really didn't like the choices I made even though I already have the departed.

Well, shoot. I chose those same three. Looks like I better brace myself for disappointment... assuming my movies come at all. :roll:
 
Not bad, I got 4 out of 5 choices. Pitch Black was subbed with Streets of Fire. 2 of 5 had the UPC and case appeared to be "dremel'ed": Frighteners and Streets. Took exactly 3 months.

Be curious to see what I get from my second player, sent in on 3/28.
 
I always just expect to not receive my mail in offers period, since that seems to happen half the time. If I get any of my 5 free HD DVDs I'll call it good.
 
I got all five of my choices, unfortunately the selection was weak. I got:
Full Metal Jacket (tired of it)
The Thing
Darkman
Babel (never seen it, hate Pitt)
Frighteners
 
Honestly, HD-DVD is dead so what did you expect ... it's not like anyone doesn't know that going in now. Odds are people who ask for their free blu-ray discs will get the ones they want given blu-ray is, well, the winner.

Did you honestly think this made any sense when you posted it? Seriously?
 
This was definitely the most compelling titles to a post I have ever seen.

Hope you don't mind too much that I find humor in your frustration. That's definitely the type of response I have towards my rebellious laptop (which never seems to want to do what I tell it to) on a weekly basis. :)
 
I mailed in for my free HD DVDs Jan 7th, April 5th they arrive with only 1 out of 5 HD DVD selected arriving, I got 2 duplicates from ones I purchased on sale.
.

I am hoping that I get my 2nd 5 movies some time this year,
who knows what may show up. but free movies are free movies.
