As per tvshowsondvd.com, Paramount will be releasing all three miniseries in one DVD on 09/25/07. I believe that "The Stand" is OOP so this is good news for those who missed out on the individual release. No word whether this new release is just a port of the previous version or if there will be any extras added to them.

Hopefully remastered transfers. Oh, and hopefully all the footage from The Golden Years complete and not edited.

I'm glad to see that this is being released. I was one of those individuals who missed out on the single release of The Stand and I've been searching for it for quite some time. I'll definitely be picking this up.

Any chance of purchasing the Stand separately? That's the only one I'm interested in.

I hope Golden Years is released with it's original ending and the not the "movie version" ending.

Was there an ending actually filmed for the Golden Years? I remember reading somewhere that they ran out of money and didn't. That would make sense considering the "ending" I saw.

This is OT i guess but isnt there like a 4 hour TV cut of Needful Things?
Will this ever come to DVD?

Chris there is a 3 hour(4 hr with commercial) version of Needful Things which either TBS or TNT airs from time to time. It's a much better version of the film in my opinion. So an uncut(tv version is cut for language/content) with the added bits would be excellent. But unfortunately I doubt that will ever happen.

I am happy with The Stand dvd that I have that's good for me.
I will past on this box set,they may skip alot extras you know.

What they really need is to put an extra feature on The Golden Years explaining where they were planning to go with the series.

Or better yet, King could just publish the scripts and notes.

Freakign sweet.

I've been tempted recently to shell out the high third-party price for The Stand.

I wish they were releasing The Stand separately.

I like the Langoliers from what I remember of it... years ago. The Stand was very good as well. The Golden Years didn't do it for me. Weird to see all 3 in one set.

There were two released endings for The Golden Years. The US aired ending would have continued the series. The ending on the DVD (and video) just sort of ends quickly.

US Ending:

I thought The Langoliers was one of the better King adaptations to hit the screen, eventhough the effects must look terrible nowadays.

Wait a minute, how much does the current 2-disc version of 'The Stand' sell for online now?

I hope "The Langoliers" will look a bit better. I seem to recall the previous release didn't deal too well with the grain of 16mm (compression artifacts.) This film really cracks me up, mostly thanks to Bronson Pinchot and his hilarious Craig Toomy character. "I forbid you from flying to some whistle-stop Maine airport!"

If you ever want to torture someone, make them watch The Langoliers over a 4 hour period when its repeated on cable. You think after every commercial that the story might advance before the next ad break, but you would be mistaken.

I didn't realize The Stand was out of print - I've always liked that one.

I might grab this set since I never bought Langoliers or Golden Years. I've had The Stand for a while and I love it.

As long as the price is fair, I'll grab this just for The Stand. And I wouldn't mind seeing The Langoliers again. Never have seen Golden Years, so that could be fun as well.

I'll be getting this for The Langoliers.

Coming out next week--can anyone confirm or deny that the version of Golden Years in this set is the full length version, not the truncated one previously issued on DVD? According to the runtime at DVDEmpire, it would be the truncated one again, but their information could be faulty, even if they got it off of the packaging for the Gift Set itself. Has anyone been able to check the discs themselves?

The Stand is going for between 25-40 on ebay for the two disc edition.

I used to own this about 5 years ago, got it for $10 used somewhere, didn't care for it so I got rid of it.

I really enjoyed this version also. Love to see a complete DC!
