I'd definitely be in for this. I love the Anthology Set on DVD that I have now.
It's too bad we can't just get a Sergio Leone Collection on HD instead though; I mean, it's not like he had that many movies to begin with. Maybe we'll get the Dollars Trilogy and eventually a separate release of the Once Upon A Time "Trilogy." Hey, a guy can hope, right?

The Digital Bits reported that this is being released in the UK on June 7 but hadn't heard anything about a US release at the time. Would be awesome if this is true.
edit: Now that I think about it, isn't June 1 when WB is releasing all those Eastwood movies on Blu-Ray?

I'm glad I held off on The Good The Bad and the Ugly on Blu-ray as a standalone. I had assumed something like this would take effect.

I guess I have to hold on to the whole Sergio Leone Anthology just for Duck, You Sucker.

It's up on Amazon now too.
I'm torn about this. Obviously I want the movies, but MGM did a pretty lousy job with TGTB&TU. I'm sure they're just going to repackage their lousy presentation rather than the significantly better one released overseas (comparisons!). The European BD of A Fistful of Dollars looks gorgeous by all accounts, and after TGTB&TU, I'm not expecting MGM's BD to be in that same league either.
I'd rather pay extra and import higher quality discs from overseas. Of course, the best looking TGTB&TU release doesn't have English audio or subs.

I'd love to get this. The only this that depresses me is...
I don't see why they just don't release the whole Anthology set , rather than just the No Name Trilogy. It's just one more film...

Because The Man With No Name trilogy is an iconic trio of films, while Duck, You Sucker is a much lesser known Leone work?

*sigh*...just put Duck, You Sucker in the set...seriously. To me Sergio Leone Anthology sounds more badass than Man With No Name Trilogy....

To you, to me, to most people on this board. But not to J6P. Plus, this is coinciding with Eastwood's birthday (roughly), so it makes sense to have it be only the Eastwood flicks.
