Finding it hard to narrow down just one Blu-ray title for that special someone this season? Holiday shopping shouldn't be so stressful! In fact, Warner Bros. is making it really easy, by packaging up 50 classic films in The Best of Warner Bros. 50 Film Collection.
Why give one Blu-ray when you can give 50? Well, technically, it's 52 -- and it typically carries a $600 price tag, which may scare away some of you from stuffing this under the tree. However, it looks like Amazon is making this one a must-have, by slashing 70 percent off the list price. Right now, The Best of Warner Bros 50 Film Collection is selling for a mere $179.99, which includes free Super Saver Shipping. That's like getting these classic movies for under $3.50 each!
It's also like gifting someone (or yourself) an entire Blu-ray collection. These aren't bargain bin movies, either. There are Oscar winners, classic comedies, family films and much more! The set has 50 movies across 52 discs, with way too many titles to list here.
Some of the classics include Mutiny on the Bounty, Casablanca, The Wizard of Oz, Gone with The Wind, and Singin' in the Rain. There are also tons of cult flicks, such as Cool Hand Luke, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory and A Clockwork Orange. If you're looking for a few chills and thrills, the set has The Exorcist, North By Northwest and The Shining. The lineup also has a lengthy list of Oscar-winning films, including The Color Purple, Chariots of Fire, Amadeus, Driving Miss Daisy, Million Dollar Baby, The Departed and The Blind Side. It even has all three Lord of the Rings movies. Oh, and just in case you thought this set was filled with high-brow titles, know that it also has the studio's juggernaut comedy, The Hangover.
It should also be noted that this set includes hours of commentaries, behind-the-scenes featurettes and more, as well as two brand-new documentaries: Tales from the Warner Bros. Lot and The Warner Bros. Lot Tour. It even has the UltraViolet Digital Copy, so you don't have to take this massive box set everywhere you go. Everything is packaged up with a limited-edition poster and postcard series inside special packaging that's worthy of such a set -- and one that can actually hold it!

There's no word on whether or not this price will go back up, so you'd better snag one before it does or the retailer runs out of stock. Just remember that you'll need to order this collection through Amazon -- and not one of the third-party merchants. Amazon is offering the low price and free Super Saver Shipping. And if you have a Prime subscription, you have this hefty set in hand in just two days!
