Advantages: Can watch all, or individual episodes Disadvantages: None
...This is an amazing series with breathtaking and beautiful shots of at nature fron all areas of the world - from the poles to the deserts. It is a DVD set that can be watched again and again, and you would still find something that amazes you about this Planet's ecology.
I enjoy nature documentaries but this one left me in such amazement of ourplanet. The BBC have spent so long making this, you appreciate the detail the film crew go into, as the scenes in this documentary are simply breathtaking, and you become in awe of mother nature. I highly recommend this series to people of all ages, as I think everyone should watch it, and gain an appreciation of ourPlanetEarth....

This bonus disk also looks at pollutiion, climate change and the growing human population -- all of which are putting pressure on to the natural wilderness.
It delves into issues such as why previously uninhabited areas are paramount for our survival, as well as the survival of some of the worlds best known animal life.
We also look at living together-the challenges facing the planet and living together in such remote areas in the 21st century...

...I just saw this movie and the show was sold out. I also had no knowledge of the video game relationship prior to seeing the film, so I brought no pre-conceived ideas with me to the theatre.
