Series with the most incremental boxed sets? - Blu-ray Forum

mstrsmth · 02-18-2019, 08:44 PM

It's funny to see movie boxed sets proclaiming "The Complete Series!" when two or three additional films have followed their release.

I'm curious, what film series has the most boxed sets released incrementally as the series progressed? Fast and the Furious? Lord of the Rings?

Fast and the Furious I would think.

That was my first thought as well.

Harry Potter is definitely up there as well.

Child's play has seen 3 at this point

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is not to have so many Mission: Impossible box sets.

Werdsniper2 · 02-18-2019, 10:23 PM

James Bond movies have got to be on this list.

JoeJr81 · 02-18-2019, 10:29 PM

Also, Star Wars, Dirty Harry, Transformers, and Super Man.

The Resident Evil franchise has had four box sets.

starsteam · 02-18-2019, 11:24 PM

Jurassic Park (A trilogy set, 3 movies + 3D set, 4 movies +3D set, 4 movies no 3D set, and a 5 movie set).

Halloween only had a couple of sets but I really did enjoy having (almost) everything in a big nice box for awhile.

Alien series.

infiniteCR · 02-19-2019, 12:53 AM

Star Wars is my guess?

svenge · 02-19-2019, 01:49 AM

It's gotta be James Bond. Even if you discount the pre-DVD era (before ~1997), there's been 8 opportunities to get a "complete" (i.e. up-to-date) set before it becomes incomplete yet again by the next film in the series.

Star Trek

Granted, I own this set. Mostly because these are the original crew films I enjoy. I just find the idea that this was an actual release, one featuring films from the middle of run only, bizarre.

The Fast & Furious franchise has to take the cake, and with a Hobbes & Shaw spin-off coming (plus an "all-female" one

), we'll be seeing yet another box within a year or so.

To say nothing of TV shows. I remember a "complete" DVD boxed set of Family Guy from around 2007-08 in a giant plastic Stewie head (that probably cost over $100), and yet the show is still going on over a decade later.

Davidian · 02-19-2019, 03:18 AM

X-Men’s got a few...

akaun6899 · 02-19-2019, 03:22 AM

I've recently gotten into the James Bond series, and I figure that the current 24-movie set will become dated once the 25th film comes out. Likewise with the Daniel Craig collection featuring the first four of his entries as the spy.
