Hey, gang. Just wanted to chime in here, seeing as how I've been watching T1 and T2 on BD this week.
I'd like to say thanks to the good Mr. Ling for all of his incredible work on the previous DVDs and BDs (which I've eagerly snapped up).
A while back, I finally gave in and got T1 on BD for...
AT LAST!!!!!!! Transformers DVD news: Extras for The Transformers - The Complete 1st Season: 25th Anniversary Edition | TVShowsOnDVD.com "restored to the original broadcast versions with a new stereo soundtrack created from the original audio"
A bit off-topic, but totally worth mentioning...how cool are these? http://www.sideshowtoy.com/cgi-bin/c....cgi?item=7327 http://www.sideshowtoy.com/cgi-bin/c....cgi?item=7328 I hope Sideshow makes other products with the license. I've already pre-ordered Brundlefly.

You know, it occurs to me that maybe some of us should get together and work on creating a definitive catalog of the errors in the Rhino DVD sets, and hope that such a list would be helpful to whomever is eventually placed in charge of a re-release. The ideal goal would be to figure out...
And we love you for it, Dave! I've been introducing some younger friends of mine to the original TF series recently (they're only familiar with Beast Wars and the live-action movie), and it's a real hassle dealing with the Rhino DVDs (at least, the episodes that have major animation...
Anyone heard any rumors or news about a possible series re-release? With the overwhelming success of the live-action Transformers movie, surely something will be in the pipe eventually, right?
Well, I was right--the Collector's Set is just a repackaging of the 2005 versions (without the bonus discs) in a new cheapie slipcase. Also, the Fly Classic collection is now out, and it's very nice. There's an audio commentary with David/Al Hedison on the first film, and some other neat...
I've been reading about Madman Entertainment's 17-disc Complete Transformers Collection (which contains all 98 episodes) recently. http://www.madman.com.au/actions/cat...releaseId=8075 They've also re-released the 1986 movie: http://www.madman.com.au/actions/cat...65&method=view...
I've been looking at the Rhino DVDs lately to refresh myself with the various problems they have. Aside from the glaring fact that the unfinished 35 mm film masters were used instead of the 1" broadcast masters, the actual film transfers leave much to be desired. The colors appear to be...
Bump...! Surely with the mega-success of the live-action TF movie, there will be renewed interest in a G1 re-release (which will hopefully correct those blasted Rhino errors). Anyone heard anything?
Well, the new Fly/Fly II two-pack is due out on Tuesday (8/7), but I recently got a sneak peak at it. It appears to be a repackaging of the previous DVDs from 2005 in a new slipcase (with new descriptions of the movies on the back). However, the Fox Collector's Edition numbers (20 and 21) are...
There's also this listing (for release on September 11): http://www.amazon.com/The-Fly-Classi...969473-1016416 The Amazon listing says that this is four discs. Early reports state that this will be a collection of the three original Fly movies (...apparently along with a bonus disc...
Gotcha. I wasn't aware what the game was supposed to be, exactly. And I presume that the trivia track falls under the standard banner of trivia subtitle tracks (as found on the Star Trek movie DVDs, etc.). Well, hopefully this release will bring something new to the table (like the triva...
As many of you may know, a Blu-Ray edition of Cronenberg's version of The Fly was slated for release back in April, but was delayed indefinitely. This release would have taken bonus features from the 2005 2-disc set's second disc (along with new features) and combined them with the movie...
Surely there'll be a release in the future, perhaps a few years down the line, and maybe when the license has passed to another studio. The scarcity of the Rhino DVDs and the demand for a re-release (and the disappointment the Rhino DVDs caused for many fans) practically beg for it. There's...
This is not good. http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=7039 It appears that the release of G1 by Sony BMG has been stalled (or delayed). We can only hope that things will be sorted out. After all, it would be foolish not to take advantage of the hype surrounding the...
That is correct, but the trailer just reused clips from the episodes as they appear on the Rhino DVDs. No other info (like Special Features, etc.) was included.
The Costco version of Sony's TFTM DVD came with a bonus disc containing the original 3-part pilot, "More Than Meets the Eye:. However, it has been reported that the versions of the episodes on the disc were exactly the same as the Rhino release, which is *NOT* good. With the live-action...
Having recently become turned on to the U.S. version of The Office, I've been doing some research on the Region 1 DVD releases. It has come to my attention that one of those blasted store-exclusive deals was done for season two. It seems that copies sold at Target stores include additional bonus...
I received one mailer containing both replacement discs (STM and SMIII) yesterday. Checked to make sure they're correct, and they are. Gonna watch STM tonight--with the original audio!
This whole situation is terribly confusing. First there's no original mix, then there is, then there isn't. I hope that the original mix is on there. Otherwise, the notion of having two separate discs for the two different cuts of the same movie (branching could make having both versions on...
I've been debating whether or not to get the TOS season sets, and to donate the 40-volume series to my Trekkie aunt, who doesn't have the financial resources to buy the series. Is it worth the upgrade? I heard that the original 2-episodes-per-disc releases have missing scenes/music/sound...
