Alias: complete series set coming in dec ??
TVShowsondvd.com had some info from an alias fan site a few days back where they were reporting S5 of alias would hit dvd in nov. Then a special collectors set of all 5 seasons in December. I was wondering if anyone has heard anymore details on the complete series set ?
Because it might be a good idea to dump current sets now, if this complete set is going to be something special. |
Lame. It would be worth it to get the complete series if they managed to package all 5 seasons consistently instead of how they're packaged now.
|
I've only seen the first season (bought for around $30 at Wal-Mart last December), and I'll probably pick up the second season.
Everyone seems to warn me away from going past the second season, so I'm not too concerned about a complete boxed set of all five seasons. |
If it's a nice price like the Buffy set (mind you, this should be less as it's 5 seasons instead of 7) then I will probably bite.
|
What?! A re-packaging of an entire series of dvds once all individual compenents of said series have been released? I'm shocked! SHOCKED!
|
I think I'll just pick up Season 5 and be done with it.
I never saw the reasoning behind selling all the seasons you already own just to pick up the same episodes in a larger set. |

I only own the first three seasons. I would only be intresed in this if it has exclusive materials. Otherwise, I couldn't care less.

If you're ever curious and would like to read spoilers instead of watching, this is a good place to read: http://www.alias-media.com/modules.php?name=Content |
I only own the first season so if this Complete Set doesn't take up a lot of space and is nicely priced, then I'll go for it.
|
I've got the 1st 4 seasons-If there's any exclusive stuff to the new set I might have to dump S1-4, otherwise I'm fine with having all 5 individually.
|
If this is like a completely new set with extra's etc, I might consider picking it up if i can find it for $120 or less.
I am probably as big of a fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer as you can find and the only reason that I bought the complete series was because I got it for about $100 with the DDD sale last winter, otherwise I probably never would have bought the set. |

I only have Season 1+2 and have limited interest in 3-5 (because of the aforementioned radical drop in quality). But, if the full set is packaged well (cool and not too bulky) and if the price is right... I'd consider it.
|
All 5 seasons were originally broadcast in high-def, correct? Perhaps there is a possibility of a Blu-Ray set?

Particularly since the fans that bought the individual sets when initially released, are the only ones that are really going to care. Don't they realize that this type of shit will cut down on the sales of the early sets since fans will be wary of the studios putting out a MEGA-set later down the line? Thereby creating low sales that will not justify the releasing of later seasons of the show? |
sigh. I wholeheartedly agree. They really need to treat fans better...

Just posted a massive Alias update with packaging pictures of the 'final season' release as well as the 'complete series' and some specs Final Season - 4 disc's and a surprisingly low MSRP of $39.99 Complete Series - 29 discs (1 new bonus disc) and an MSRP of $199.99 That box set really does look cool, but is it really work $135 to upgrade when one has seasons 1-4 already (seems to be the question going around)... |

The show's final season was cut short by the network. It only ran 17 episodes instead of the usual 22. |
I already have the first 4 seasons... don't think I will upgrade to the complete series set... but will definitely buy Season 5... I only ever watched Alias on DVD... so don't know what happened after the season 4 cliffhanger.
|
I quit 1/4 into S5. I couldn't justify it any longer. Then, somehow, I heard the show started getting better. I'll probably netflix the end of the season to see how things wrap up. I unloaded S1-3 a few wks ago in anticipation of a set like this, but at this point I just don't care.
Thanks for the links, though. The set does look cool. |
I was a little peeved about the Buffy set because I had bought all 7 seasons, but I had just started watching Alias and held off when I heard about the complete series set and am now glad about it.

Here is a picture of what the box looks like inside

I have the first four seasons already, so I am going to pass on the series box set.
I am glad that I passed up on buying the Buffy sets. The Buffy Series box set is sweet and I picked it up for 230 bucks Canadian. |
I will very possibly pickup the complete series even though I have all of the current seasons. Reason being, that release date is very possibly going to be during the DDD 20% sale, based on prior sales dates (could be wrong, but I think thats right). So if I can get it for around $120 like the Buffy set was last year, and can sell my previous 4 seasons for $20-25 a piece, I will be getting the complete series set for not much more than I would have paid for S5 alone.

is it good
|
hmmmmm very tempting since I don't own any seasons and did enjoy watching this show despite some lackluster episodes midway through the series. Might be a big dent in my wallet though, since I'm also planning to get the complete Six Feet Under box as well.

Wait, are those discs in a sleeve inside the case? Ie, scratch heaven? Gotta say, if thats the case, I might pass on this after all. Hopefully thats not the case, but it really looks like it.
