I think Trouble With the Curve is a box set exclusive as the DVD was released a few months back. I'll add some temporary covers to the blank spaces.

It is a BD exclusive in the UK, as the standalone disk was never released here.
I have it from the US and also came to BD in Germany though.

wow £36.69 for 20 films is pretty damn cheap. It has to be an error?

I'm not a fan of Eastwood so I won't be getting this. I hope they honour that price though, it's a bargain.

I don't have any of these films, so I'm very tempted to get this. £36.69 is a great price!

£36 is a bargain for 20 blu rays even though i already own a couple of them, had to pre order at that price. it wont be long before that prices goes back up

My only complaint would be the packaging. in america they got a like a big thick digibook much like the james bond 50 set where each page is a different film and it slides out where as the uk gets 2 jumbo amarays and a slip. cant really complain though as the american version is $90 + shipping + import fees and this is only £36!

The U.S. set looks very tidy. I wish the UK set was the same but like you said, you can't complain with £36.

Unsurprisingly, the £36 Play.com listing has been removed (it's still on the site but not currently available to order). I pre-ordered it yesterday but will be very impressed if they honour what was a pretty blatant price error.

I've been waiting for 'A Perfect World' for ages. Not tempted by the box at all, but at least it means they're more likely to do a standalone release.

The original DVD release was thirty five movies. What else is missing from this set compared to the DVD one.

Aside from those titles, what else is missing?

That's what's on the US DVD set. Bold items are on Blu-ray. I like Eastwood's westerns and his thrillers. So I'd like to get a few more BDs. I'm waiting for Play Misty For Me and The Beguiled and even Breezy which I haven't seen yet.

Firefox is out in Denmark and elsewhere in Europe. Same disk as US. It's just the UK Warner have failed to release this in.

I bought the U.S. release and ended up selling it. It has a clear flimsy plastic cover that's bound to get broken putting the digibook in and out, not to mention the whole thing is a fingerprint magnet. The lettering on the cover is so dark you can hardly read it with the background dark, too.

I might end up buying the U.K. set since it looks sturdy and includes Flags of our Fathers. Downside is you get Eagles Dare/Kelly's Heroes instead of Firefox/Every Which Way. Plus you can put the amary cases with the rest of the collection.

I'm thinking of cancelling my pre-order. I have a feeling this will drop down into the mid-20s eventually. Even though I know I'll regret it when I see pictures of the set posted ...

36 is a bargain now but few months down the line it will be in the mid 20s. 5 movie collection touched 10. So 22 for 22 movie set is very much possible.

That's what I was thinking too, if all the titles were new it would be a fantastic deal but I could pick up the Dirty Harry set and still be a happy camper!
