Spielberg's Taken - Specs, Cover & Disc Art (1 Viewer)

Thanks James. If the R2 includes a DD 5.1 Ex track then I think I'll forgo the additional extras and go for it.

I haven't seen this yet (I don't get the Sci-Fi Channel), but apparently it'll be airing on CBC in like a month, so I guess I'll be able to decide if it's worth a purchase.

"Yikes!" to that price!

This epic mini series has already consumed 2 weeks of my life when it was aired on SciFi. I can't allow it to progress any further. Must resist...

I'm considering this as a blind purchase, as I'm currently doing some work with the composer of the music for the series. It doesn't hurt that I'm a big science fiction fan, but I haven't had time recently to watch much television, much less all my DVDs.

Sorry for resurrecting an ancient thread, but I've just recently been introduced to this miniseries. A co-worker had the DVD set and thought I'd enjoy it, so he lent it to me.

The wife and I finally found some time back in December to watch it. We did it all in about five nights, and were favorably impressed - enough so that I wanted to own the set for myself.

The first thing I noticed, in trying to acquire it, was that Amazon.com listed it as being only available from its marketplace sellers, which I assumed meant that it was out-of-print.

A few other online sellers listed it, but they seemed sporadic and only at full list price.

I finally acquired the series from a seller on eBay, but I wondered about why such a recent series might be out-of-print.

Any theories?

Were they all....TAKEN?

I was hoping for a price reduction on this, but if it is indeed getting hard-to-find, I may just have to go snag that copy I saw recently at Best Buy.

It may not be around anymore due to the high price. I wanted it but it cost too much. I did notice that in the stores around me the set just sat on the shelves and was later just removed.

 

[Kevin M]

I agree with Dwayne, I would have bought it a long time ago but the price has never really dropped much (just like Band of Brothers) and I guess I am a cheap bastard on certain things that, IMO, are fairly over priced after all this time in print.


P.S. Doesn't this belong in the TV area?

Kevin,

I believe this thread started before TV was split out into its own forum. My how time flies....
