    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    I think it's a bit back in this thread where I ordered it on another price reduction thinking it was a huge bargain for the boxed set (which happens a lot with the WB sets, see Casablanca today) then found out that even what looks like a booklet in the illustration is nothing more than a...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    it's definitely NOT the box set this thread was originally about that's on sale now - it's the discs-only version in a plain Blu Ray case.

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    My update on the discs, Most have kind of annoying noisy short-loop menus, and all menus have an inexplicable feature: a speaker icon, which when clicked, does NOT mute the sound! All it does is turn off the click sound when you highlight menu items. WTF? Many discs have fairly current...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    Package arrived from Amazon today. There is NO Book, Condensed or otherwise. This is a disappointment to me, and for me makes the package less of a bargain. Certainly the content of the book from the large set could have been reduced in size and reformatted into the kind of softbound books...

    Yeah, I know. Thought I mentioned that. The $79 only 2 left price you saw for the newer release is from a merchant and just fulfilled by Amazon. Those tend to get listed first. Go back to the page and look under Other Formats & Versions. The one that says 1 disc version (which we know is...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    Sounds better, actually. Think you could post that image here? just did all I could find were some blurry amateur shots from a month ago. Looks like a little book that fits in slipcase ala the WSS DVD set though the packaging doesn't list the book as a feature. Another photo shows what looks...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    The $79 price you saw is not from Amazon - likely resulted when one of the merchants saw the other listing and got delusions of grandeur. Amazon is still selling it for close to $40.

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    If there IS no book, Amazon is getting a big complaint from me. Their tendency to list different versions as if they're the same... From the reviews and all, I had no reason not to expect the book in it. The product details list is SO wrong, (1 disc 1.33) I disregarded all but the list of...

    Blu-ray Review HTF BLU-RAY REVIEW: The Mel Brooks Collection

    Reviving this thread because Amazon just dropped it to $39.99 and I decided for nine discs and a book it was a good buy. I too would much prefer more conventional packaging, but I can always find more standard or BR cases, and I suppose if I were resourceful enough I could find duplicates of...
