Check out the link, on Nov 7 there will be 2 sets of 5 films released in the US. Grrr...why? No attache case is one thing, but only putting out half the films at once?!? (Presumably the other half will be out right around April/May to coincide with the CR DVD). I KNEW the US release of these discs would be messed up somehow mad.gif

[censored]ing [censored]!!! They pulled this crap with the last U.S. release.

I bet we won't see the full set until well into 2007.

This sucks! mad.gif

God. Well that's all [censored]ed up then. Just like pretty much every other US DVD release.

Whoah! $90.00 for each set. With CR, it'll cost almost $400 to get all 21 dvds.

You know, do I really need to buy these again?

Thank goodness for region-free DVD players.

This is messed up, but not really a surprise at all.

It's nice to see the States getting [censored]ed over on this again. I'm so sick of these random 'collectors' boxes. I mean God forbid they sell them either all at once or in a chronological or ..hell... "logical" order, but no.

I may hold off on buying now. Total let down.

I'm thinking the same thing. I think I may just blow my money on something else.




Thank you, the brief glimpse you've afforded me today will only encourage me to redouble my efforts.

Yeah, that really sucks. I'm wondering how big a discount we'll see on sites like amazon.

Usually it's around 25% but that's still about $70 per set.

Well bear in mind that's the 'suggested' retail price, these things are always listed higher than they actually sell for. If you scroll down, it lists the retail price of Mission Impossible 3 as 29.99, yet we all know it'll be available for about $15.99 in its first week at least.
I'd expect to see a real price of $49.99 or $59.99 on these (perhaps with a buy both sets and save $10 offer at whichever store wants to sell them aggressively), and no doubt Best Buy and/or Circuit City will have some kind of "Free Casino Royale preview DVD with purchase".

I remember getting an awesome deal on the Universal Hitchcock set off of amazon a year or so ago, so I'm hoping for the same here. tongue.gif

That's not bad though. 14/15 bucks per DVD. Die Another Day is on sale for 13 bucks right now at Amazon. So.. decent comparison.

I don't have them all on DVD. Just one random set (DN, GF, TMWTGG, TSWLM, LTK, GE, TND) that someone bought me and the rest of the Brosnan films which I bought. I have them all on VHS though, so this is probably a must for me considering I dislike the quality of the DVDs I have, but I may wait for the entire thing or when they come down in price now. I had previously intended to buy them all right away. I just don't want to put up with this random collection [censored].
