As part of its Deals of the Week, Amazon offers up to 70% off Ken Burns documentaries on Blu-ray and DVD. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Ken Burns:

…[He] has been making films for more than thirty years. Since the Academy Award nominated Brooklyn Bridge in 1981, Ken has gone on to direct and produce some of the most acclaimed historical documentaries ever made. A December 2002 poll conducted by Real Screen Magazine listed The Civil War as second only to Robert Flaherty’s Nanook of the North as the “most influential documentary of all time,” and named Ken Burns and Robert Flaherty as the “most influential documentary makers” of all time.

Popular titles from this promotion include Baseball ($40.49), The National Parks: America’s Best Idea (from $34.99), The War ($30.49), Prohibition ($17.49), and more.

The Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II Limited Edition Gift Set is available for $79.99 shipped from Amazon. This collector’s set was just released today and carries a list price of $149.99. However, in the lead-up to its release it typically sold for around $90. That makes today’s deal the best price we’ve ever seen by $10. It includes Ghostbusters remastered in 4k on Blu-ray, Ghostbusters II on Blu-ray for the first time, an exclusive Slimer figurine, and Digibook with both films.
