Predictably yet another set that comes out before the release of a new film. I don't own these films yet so it's a good buy for me imo.

I would say just by the original releases. Both of them together will me cheaper than that. Actually, I would say just buy "TDR" because "HOTC" is pretty lame, imo.

They make these sets so tempting though. I can hold off for a review. The whole deal with these things are the extras. If they're lame i might just take a pass.

lol, just the two separate releases in one box, you could totally buy each cheaper together than the 3-disc boxset. :p

I still dig HO1KC, but TDR is definitely the best one. Bring on Halloween'07.

Darth - the House DVD was a bit lacking in extras, though the menus are good fun. It's worth having and is probably dirt cheap now.

TDR has a fantastic DVD, the second disc is a 2 and a half hour documentary that covers the entire shoot, the be-all end-all coverage of the making of the film, absolutely essential.

That sounds really good to me. I'm the type who totally gets into the extras on a dvd. I still can't believe that there are some people who haven't watched dawn with the commentary on !! :stunned: I've watched every commentary from the ultimate edition. I figure if i'm paying all this money for a dvd i'm going to squeeze every bit of value out of it. Plus you find things out that you would have never known otherwise by listening to the commentary. :cool:

I've listened to the cast commentary (extended cut) and the GAR & Co commentary (theatrical cut)...but I haven't bothered with the Rubenstein one, just because I think he's a dick and he f*cked GAR over. :D

But aye, the DVD extras are always good fun usually, some DVDs don't bother at all, or they put out uninformative junk cut & paste stuff...or "making ofs" which are actually just everybody being interviewed sucking each other off about how amazing and nice they all are - WE DON'T CARE!!! :lol:

Now - that 2.5 hour making of for TDR is a true making of, you go away knowing basically every single thing about the flick, you see it being made, you see the crew's journey.

The Making of TDR was as good (if not better) than the movie.
I'm not putting the movie down. I really liked it.
I just thought the making of documentary was equally impressive.

Darn tootin' mate, one of the best making ofs of all time, I'd hasten to say even. :cool:

I wouldn't bother, it is one of the most boring commentaries I have ever heard. It's all figures and marketing talk. :dead:

I agree, remarkable documentary.
