Great news, I was wondering when they would do this. I don't know if I would own all 21 of them, but definitely from GoldenEye and up.

KenThompson · 06-05-2008, 10:58 PM

Twenty movies, sounds expensive. There are a couple that I don't care for but for the most part I'm all in for Bond.

Yeah. I wouldn't imagine those would be available in any large type of box set. They will most likely spread out the releases so it's not so expensive, maybe release them in volume box sets like the DVD re-releases have been, or maybe 1 a week.

WickyWoo · 06-05-2008, 11:03 PM

When they came out on DVD (outside ofa handful of releases beforhand) the (at the time 19 movies) were split into 3 6 movie boxes (with room for World is Not ENough)

A similar 4 box pattern will probably ensue, if I were them I'd release one for QoS theatrical, one when QoS comes out on Blu, one more in the Spring, and the complete/4th sets for next Christmas

That's how I bought my original set. Looks like a double dip for me!

love this idea Wicky. Hope they do this, I am looking forward to these.

NutsAboutPS3 · 06-05-2008, 11:10 PM

These should be no-brainers for Blu-ray release as the remastering that was done for the DVDs was surely also done with Blu-ray in mind and all that should be required is to encode appropriately and author the discs to include the DVD extras.

If I go with the blu-rays when they come out(and I'm sure I will,maybe not right off though),it'll be a triple dip for me.
Bought the original special edition DVDs,and then the ultimate editions last fall.

Blu Titan · 06-05-2008, 11:19 PM

I am all in!

I bought the remastered DVD Bond set a few years ago but I'd have no problems upgrading to the Blu Ray set.

Dr Strangelove · 06-06-2008, 01:03 AM

I added "Goldfinger" and "The Spy Who Loved Me" to my wish list

AaronSCH · 06-06-2008, 01:04 AM

I hope they deliver the classic Bond poster art. I really dislike the DVD cover designs used previously. Nevertheless, I will be adding each and every one to my collection...the great, the good and the not-so-good. 'Cause the Bond flicks are like sex and pizza...even when they are bad they're good!

silversnake · 06-06-2008, 04:09 AM

i also waited to buy the James Bond pack , i won't this time when it comes out

aheintz · 06-06-2008, 11:43 AM

Man this is starting to be an expensive year for movie purchases but this I will grab for sure.

Groundhog · 06-06-2008, 12:56 PM

Pbbbb. The new Bond is the best Bond.

Heresy to true Bond fans - but I haven't really liked a Bond film for decades before Casino Royale.

I think they're as ready as they're ever going to be.

Those SE DVD's that were out a couple of years ago were sourced from 4K Re-Masters that were done at Lowry Digital. And they looked fantastic!

I can only imagine how good they will look in 1080p

especially Goldfinger!... PG: "My Name is ***** Galore", JB:"...I must be dreaming!"

Mobe1969 · 06-06-2008, 11:16 PM

I'm not really into these odd mixed sets. I either want the lot, or all by actor, or available individual. I can just see me buying this set, and then getting stuck with it when they release a full set later on

bondfooll · 06-07-2008, 12:43 AM

Yes!!!! My favorite movie series of all time... obviously!
