And now's the time I'm kicking myself for buying, receiving, and unwrapping Senso, Fish Tank, and Sweet Smell of Success from Amazon this week. Patience is a virtue... About 100 more likes to go until they post the promo code!

They're 109 fans away, people. Keep your eyes open: this will go down quickly.

Also, I just remembered the sweetener: $50 for every $500 you spend.

Damn, just remembered that orders to NY and KY pay tax. I just can't win here. Might get Renoir's The River anyway. The code is gonna go up on the hour, I bet.

Is this going to include the eclipse titles? Might get the Malle docs if so.

I hope so. I've got all Eclipse boxes sitting in my cart. Just waiting now. The site is a pain right now.

Probably not the best idea to announce this off the cuff promo right before everyone's out the door and without letting their server know

They were definitely not prepared. The little load icon on IE has been spinning on The Honeymoon Killers page for 10 minutes now.

So they haven't posted the code yet, but they did go to the effort of posting "Great song" when someone linked to a video of "Soon" by My Bloody Valentine. Hilarious.
