Advantages: none Disadvantages: loads of scenes and music scores have been cut out
this is the only fools and horses complete collection boxset but in my eyes it isnt because loads of scenes have been cut and musical scores changed or cut out and laughter tracks added onto episodes that didnt originally have a laughter track. so its not really the complete collection is it with all these things changed and added the episode a royal flush is the one that been edited the most loads of scenes have been cut and a laughter track added wich spoils the episode completely. i would strongly recommend anyone that want to see all the episodes in all their glory is to tape them off uk gold its better than this so called complete collection that the bbc have released im still waiting for the genuine complete collection. ...
Advantages: Well acted, Great Book Adaptation Storylines, Fun for All Ages Disadvantages: Each Movie is About Three Hours Long
be ignored by the overall storyline.
I was slightly disapointed by this third story since it really didn't go by the books my L.M Montgomery at all. The first two movies are at least based on her books , but this movie was almost entirely made up. I was hoping the third movie would follow the other books about Anne as she is grown up with Children.
Still, the movie was well made and entertaining. It was good to see the actors again, and the costumes anad attention to detail from the World War I era are fantastic. It's not as good as the first two movies, but well worth a watch.
******Conclusion*****
All these movies in the BoxSet; Anne of Green Gables, The Sequel , and The Continuing Story, are so much fun. Children around the age of 7 and up will enjoy the first one. While children more around the age of 10 and up would ...
Advantages: Original and director's cut edition, flawless transfer, every extra you could want Disadvantages: None
Of all movie monsters, the Alien has to be my favourite and this boxset is an esential for anyone who has seen and loved any or all of the four pure Alien movies (dsicounting the Alien/ Predator crossover genre).
Having been old enough to have seen the original Alien at the cinema I was pleased that the boxset includes the original as well as the new updated and reditied versions of all four of the movies. There are also extras beyond belief and I defy anyone to have the itme to watch them all!
For those of you who dislike the modern trend to revisit and reinvent classic movies fear not. The redited Alien for example was lovingly crafted by original director Ridley Scott who correctly recognised that a modern cinema audience would find the original somewhat slow paced in places. He has also skillfully added back scenes removed ...
Boxset of all 4 volumes of the ALIEN saga: ALIEN, ALIENS (a previously unreleased special edition with nearly 20 minutes of additional footage), ALIEN 3 and ALIEN RESURRECTION.

DVD Description
Boxset of all 4 features in the ALIEN quadrilogy. The ultimate sci-fi/horror series, ALIEN: Director Ridley Scott's breakthrough film, an immensely successful blend of horror and science fiction. Starring Sigourney Weaver as warrant officer Ellen Ripley, the crew of the space cargo ship Nostromo land on a moribund planet in response to a faint SOS. Inside a crashed ship, the crew members come upon strange pods...ALIENS: Ripley, the sole survivor from the first film, is awakened after 57 years of drifting through space, her stories disbelieved by Company executives who tell her that the alien's planet is now inhabited and colonized. ALIEN 3: David Fincher's debut as a director, ALIEN 3, picks up almost directly after the events in ALIENS, finding Ripley frozen in suspended animation as her ship crashes on Fiorina 161, a prison planet. Trapped on a barren planet with convicts and no weapons of any kind, Ripley soon realizes that an alien was also on the ship and has survived. ALIEN RESURRECTION: The fourth installment of the wildly popular series, a drop of Ellen Ripley's blood spawns a part human, part alien Ripley clone. Now that Ripley is dead, the clone has fallen into the hands of government scientists who want to harness the Ripley clone's breeding powers.
