No Munich still damn it

amoergosum · 07-02-2014, 06:42 AM

All I want is Duel as a standalone release.

2 out of 3 movies is just kinda annoying. with the boxset being so cheap for ages they are just gonna try to make more money with discs everyone already owns most likely...

Ordered this set. Some repetition but 'Duel' & 'Sugarland Express' are must haves for me. Factor in '1941' and 'Always', plus the book and it's not bad for four movies, much cheaper than the US version.

I expect 'Munich' will be given a big bells and whistles release for it's anniversary next year, much like 'Schindler's List' did.

The box set isn't for me. I have the films I want and that style of packaging isn't something I go for. Missing many Greatest Hits too.

Reasonably priced, though.

Only Jurassic Park and The Lost World were directed by Spielberg, JPIII wasn't. It's totally reasonable seeing as this is a Spielberg Director's collection.

It's a nice looking set, and I'd love Duel, but I'd essentially be paying £50+ for a couple of movies. Will wait and see if the previously unreleased ones get individual releases.

Sir Henry Rawkinson · 07-01-2014, 10:48 PM

Great to see Sugarland finally getting a release. Beautiful shot movie, should look great in 1080.

Will Duel be 1.85:1 ? Probably not, but I'd prefer it to be.

Dickieduvet · 07-01-2014, 11:29 PM

Hoping for individual releases for Duel, Sugarland & Always.

Same hope Duel gets an individual release

When the **** are we getting Munich?

I love Steven Spielberg. He's a absolute genius. I find this box set a surprising idea, though, given how nothing links his films together apart from the fact they were directed by him and some are sequels to his big successes.

... and they are all Universal titles. This is why they are collected together like this. Also only one film in the set is a sequel.

Duel coming to AUS as a single release with poster art..

^ Not the best cover but it's Duel, damnit!

Great News.

melonhed · 10-15-2014, 10:23 AM

£60 in HMV. Pretty good price I think, for what you get.

Bluyoda · 05-18-2015, 05:10 PM

Is there a comparions video or something that details the differences between the UK and US sets?

That would be so helpful.
