Harry Potter 8-Film Collection - Blu-ray Forum

Darksteel1335 · 11-03-2011, 09:53 AM

Seen this on eBay for $76 (incl. P&H) when JB HiFi has it at $139.95.

It's the 11-Disc collection. Day one purchase anyone?

Yeah I seen this. I'm prob going to grab it in AUS if there are special features on DVD.
Does anyone know if it is 11 blu-ray discs? Or 8 BR and 3 DVD?

Isn't this addition only 32 pound on amazon uk (60NZ give or take). That seems like the obvious purchase choice.

Yeah sure is. Its in my amazon basket. I'm just waiting on confirmation that it is 11 blu-rays and no DVD because the DVD will be region 2 and I dont have a multi region player

Darksteel1335 · 11-03-2011, 11:12 AM

I just found out in a user review on Amazon that Warner Bros are going to stop shipping Harry Potter to retailers at the end of the year and do a complete re-issue in late-2012.

Quote:

Hard-core Potter fans will be pleased to know that 2011 is not the end of the Harry Potter film franchise on DVD and Blu-ray. Warner Home Video plans to release a comprehensive Harry Potter film collection, with even more extras and collectible premiums in 2012. More details about the collection will be available at a later date.

I'm going to wait in that case.

I'm sure I could deal with the dvds to get all 8 films on blu ray for that price

NickMate · 11-03-2011, 11:34 AM

I'm just hoping they finish off the collectors edition for 5-7 here in AUS. The slipcovers are nice but I want more.!!.! Give me more

avecha · 11-03-2011, 12:35 PM

I decided to go for the limited edition numbered box set thing from amazon uk. Tempted to buy this as well as it's released sooner.

dean1700 · 11-22-2011, 02:04 AM

Who's got the best price at the moment on the Australian release BD complete set? I need to get one for a present.

Big W is cheaper than JB I think by about $10. Jb have it now for $139.

Yes, Big W sells $118 from their website, but out of stock.

I'm gonna wait till WB finishes with the HP films for good before I buy any Blu-Rays. This is one franchise I won't be double dipping in.

LordCrumb · 11-23-2011, 01:34 AM

^ You might be waiting a while... isn't JK going to write more books just to keep the franchise going?

I had heard the JK said she would go back to the HP universe. But a timeline isn't set when she would return or infact if Harry would appear at all.

One of the producers of the HP series has said that the 1st & 2nd movie's will have the effects redone. To match those seen in the rest of the franchise. That will likely happen once the series boxset is released. Giving WB a chance to go back and work on a boxset for release in 2013-2014.

finally completed my Harry Potter (FutureShop Exclusive Steelbooks) Deathly Hallows only arrived this week, really love the entire collection, they did an amazing job with this set!

LordCrumb · 11-26-2011, 10:24 AM

Are those the steelbooks with just faces on them? I thought they kind of look cheap..

and now in late 2012 they've released that collectors edition for almost $500. not worth it tho, most of the money goes to the fact it's 2 to 3 copies of each movie and a special cardboard box.

toddt85 · 10-08-2012, 02:46 PM

^ T'is an awesome set though! I got it from the UK so it only ended up costing me $230AUD... but the $500 asking price here in Aus? Hell NO!

When I asked WB about that, they said that everything of HP that needed to be released has been. I told them "No it hasn't" as there's still the Collector Editions of Years 5-7 to be released. They said there are no plans to release them at this time, but that doesn't mean they won't. I mentioned it would be weird if WB AU are waiting for the masters to be sent while WB US are waiting to be asked to send them. If my sister and I badly wanted them, it would be best to buy them online.
