Christmas day 2004 i descend from my room expecting the assortment of weird beer and useless objects which make up my usual christmas haul. Instead i was greeted by this baby, the quadrilogy box set, SWEEET! Yes I am an Aliens fanboy so i was going to enjoy this due to content anyway that said upon opening i was almost drooling at the translucent green dvd "book" containing NINE DVDS! Yes thats five whole dvds of extras. Now these are what i have since found to be the most appealing feature as there is a massive amount of information from who did what to make the film to a large segment on what Alien3 could have been if a crazy surreal idea had been followed. Basically This is worth it for the films alone as all four are extremely watchable with Alien and Aliens being extremely different but equally sublime pieces of horror / scifi war. The only downside i have found is that the extras are all the same documentary style, which is bearable if you are a fan, but everyone else will probably not bother with tham all, which is a shame as there is fascinating information to be gleaned. If you have enjoyed a single alien film or any sci fi film buy this now, you will not be dissapointed.

I know there is 9 DVD it says it on the box - adding an exclamation mark doesn't make this a worthwhile review.
Anyway, come on, fella these movies deserve some serious acknoweldgement and you think you can just say "Woo Hoo" someone loves me enough to buy me this box set!!.
Anyway write more and I'll gladly re-rate rather than berate.
