MTV Aeon Flux (DVD, 1997)

blackchubby · 10-07-04, 09:44 PM

Hi, I wanted to buy this DVD when it went Out Of Print. But there was no way I was gonna pay more than a $100 on EBAY, since that is the only place I could find it. But I noticed recently the bidding has dropped to $20 being the lowest. Any word if there is a Re-release, seems like a lot of sellers are trying to sell their copies. Should I go ahead and buy it or wait?

I know there's a movie being made by Paramount with Charlize Theron that should be out next year so I'd guess there's a likelihood we'll see a release of the entire series around that time. I believe the old disc was issued by Sony and didn't include every episode.

I'm pretty sure they're prepping something...the name of "aeon flux' has been paraded around recently on a bunch of stuff, like "from the creator of..."

The original disc did not have the entire series, just the original shorts and a few episodes...nothing major. I had 3 of them, all of which went the way of ebay for some serious fucking profit, about 2 years ago.

Thanks for the responses, so I guess I'll wait and hope they release the complete series.

A couple of blockbusters have it for rent...just rent it and 'lose' it.

I knew I should have bought that disc 3 or 4 years ago....Damn

i ordered the mtv show the head saves the earth on dvd. its either rare or bootleg ill have to wait and see.

Vryce · 10-08-04, 08:57 PM

I wish MTV would release all their stuff on dvd again or for the first time.

I want The Maxx on dvd. My VHS copy is all worn out.

Jah-Wren Ryel · 10-08-04, 09:00 PM

I'm pretty sure "The Head" is bootleg, it did get a VHS release though. That was one funky show, I remember watching that and The Maxx. People used to complain about MTV not having any Music, but I thought Liquid TV and the various animated shows were 10x better than most of the videos. Like we need to see yet another 3.5 minutes of concert footage...

Bluebomber · 10-08-04, 09:35 PM

Well one thing that caused the price drop was the ton of bootlegs that saturated ebay of the show.

MiamiLoco · 10-09-04, 02:48 AM

I also want THE MAXX on DVD. I recently got some of the Trade Paper Backs of this comic and it's amazing how closely it was translated into the cartoon.

Cornholio · 10-09-04, 05:43 PM

yeah the head was great i hope it isnt a bootleg but oh well. they should release Liquid Television the complete collection box set.

puddytay · 10-09-04, 09:47 PM

I really want the maxx on dvd also. AWSOME show.

Got_Criterion · 10-09-04, 10:56 PM

Sam Kieth's The Maxx is quite incredible.. if you like the show check Sam Kieth's 'Zero Girl'... its pretty awesome also (for those of you that dont know... its a comic. lol)

I heard that Sam was approached by MTV studios about the Maxx Season's, since there has been a strong cult following and demand for the comics and Television shows.

So he's suppose to go back and release them on DVD w/tons of suppliments, I read that on one site(when it comes to mind I'll post). He's busy with work motion picture design.

I want the Brothers Grunt.

Cornholio · 10-10-04, 10:40 AM
