Doctor Who Season 5 is still £50, this very much annoys me.

Preorder just went up at Amazon

$139.99 for the entire series

I wish that more studios would quit beating around the bush and just release complete series boxsets of older shows instead of releasing them one at a time.

God damnit, I just bought the cheap DVDs thinking they couldn't do HD transfers (like TNG).

What would possibly make you think they couldn't make HD transfers of a show that aired in HD? :confused:

It's not that they couldn't its more that they wouldn't. Plus I wasn't aware that the earlier seasons were broadcast in HD.

Is your avatar Picard about to sneeze or does he need his glasses?

A random screencap I managed to get one day that I found hilarious. I think it's his dissatisfaction that there will never be a TNG Bluray set.

I just finished watching the Tron Blu Ray, the original film has fantastic transfer, some of the effects really look crisp and fresh. More effective than Tron Legacy in someways as I expect that to look amazing.

The Godfather trilogy is up on Amazon UK for £17.99, i'm quite tempted at this, but I've already spent too much on Blu this month, plus I need to start saving for LOTR Extended's.

This dropped down to less than 15 pounds when in my cart at checkout.

I just tried this, didn't do it for me. What was your secret?

All the Die Hard movies are $20 @ Amazon at the moment. I think I might do an order.

I'm amazed there isn't a box set of this yet. Do different studios own the different films or are they after a cash grab?

I forgot to mention for the UK. Pretty big omission on my part.
The godfather price on Amazon UK seems to be fluctuating. Going from £17-£35-£17, managed to nap it whilst it's still £17 again.
Also picked up Harry Potter Years 1-7 part 1 for £35, will probably be cheaper now than getting the complete set at £70 when the 2nd half comes out.

Got the Godfather collection through today. Quite a large box considering it's only four discs, but each disc gets its own Blu-ray sized box which seems like a waste of space seeing as the Alien Anthology has 6 discs in about a third of the space.

It was also a particularly thin negative because Willis shot it underexposed so that no one could alter the film and make it brighter later.


My copy (and the customer images on Amazon) all seem to have the 4 discs in one case.

drat UK releases, never mind. It looks a big beefy case and the artwork is still nice.

This is one of the most pathetic things I've ever heard in my life.

I was watching Fringe 720p broadcasts for quite a while. Then bought the Bluray discs. Lets just say I never noticed Olivia had freckles...

That man is full on crazy. Who cares about logos? I want to see the drat film!

I can vouch that the PotC trilogy are really awesome on Blu.
