Fantastic (except for the box)
Advantages: 49 DVD's makes for a lot of entertainment
Disadvantages: The box breaks too easily
For any fans of the next generation, this is certainly the ultimate set to own. With all sorts of extras and every episode of all seven series contained on 49 (yes, 49) dvd's there'll always be something new and exciting to watch. The show itself is fantastic, with Patrick Stewart starring as the Federation's leading Captain, Jean-Luc Picard. I particularly enjoy the portrayal of the character Data, who in a similar fashion to that of the tin man ...
...it is to be human and have emotions. All the characters certainly have more depth than those of the original series (don't get me wrong, the original series is fantastic too) The only problem with this box set is the box itself, as it breaks all too easily - mine for example has a huge number of chips and cracks in it - so extra care has to be taken if you want it to stay in good condition. ...

X2:united
Advantages: Continues with an already loved story.
Disadvantages: Differs very subtly from the original comic book
...been a fan of the X-Men since i was a small child, starting with the animated series and then eventually the comic book. X-men introduced us to the characters, but X2 captures them so well that, co-creator, Stan Lee would be proud. Also introducing some new characters that will make fans happy. The returning cast who made these characters their own in the first film, are even better in X2. With the story focusing more on Hugh Jackman's Wolverine ...

After his brief encounter with a mutant assassin, Nightcrawler, the president grants William Stryker, a rogue army colonel with a desire to destroy mutants, permission to enter the Xavior Institute, Wolverine conects Styker to his amnesa.

To boldly go at Warp Speed!!!
Advantages: The episodes relatie to a single subject - time travel
Disadvantages: A bit heavy on the Next Generation stories
...for a review of the Star Trek: Time Travel Collection DVD box set.
---What's it all about then?---
The theme of this box set is a particularly good theme that has been used to different angles within the Star Trek universe, that of Time Travel, something that always appears in every flavour of Star Trek including the films on more than one occasion. The set comprises of the following episodes:
'Tomorrow is Yesterday' The City on the Edge of Forever' ...
...the set is a little Star Trek Next Generation heavy the episodes are memorable not because of the time travel, but because of the problems that travelling in time causes. I personally don't have any experience of this but for example the episode Yesterdays Enterprise has the Enterprise- C appear through a spatial anomaly and thus changes the present into an alternate timeline where characters are reborn, attitudes are different and the Enterprise ...

Season 3 of TNG - Where it really kicked off
Advantages: Really stepping up from season 2 will great episodes
Disadvantages: Not too many special features included
...think that season 3 of Star Trek The Next Generation is where the show really came into its own and started to cast off the shadow left by the original series.
Season 3 has some terrific science fiction stories told with classic episodes like "Yesterday's Enterprise", "The Defector", "Best Of Both Worlds Part I" and "Sarek" which sees Mark Lenard return as Spocks father.
There are 26 episodes this season which last roughly 44 minutes each and for ...
...as with a lot of Star Trek The Next Generation most of the episodes are self contained so will not require a lot of pre-existing knowledge or having to watch previous seasons. I will however recommend buying season 4 aswell as the end cliffhanger from season 3 in "Best Of Both Worlds" is widely considered one of the best in science fiction still after all these years.
Main Cast List:
Captain Picard - Patrick Stewart
Commander Riker - Jonathon ...
