The price is admittedly very attractive though.Paul WJMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14745200069891956986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-728634156714798178.post-26713824494746364742012-07-01T23:51:38.314+01:002012-07-01T23:51:38.314+01:00Yes, it would be nice to get the lot together, wou...Yes, it would be nice to get the lot together, wouldn't it? Still, I honestly don't imagine it will be long before the equivalent of the Legacy sets make an appearance.<br />BTW, Sainsbury's seem to have the best deal on the UK set, and if you're a first time buyer then the code SETENJ12 gives an extra 10% off until July 17. Should bring the price down to a shade over £30.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-728634156714798178.post-52144001346957325482012-07-01T11:52:20.331+01:002012-07-01T11:52:20.331+01:00I was reading those kind of points over at Digital...I was reading those kind of points over at Digital Bits (not sure if that's where you read it too), which I thought was very sad, because when I originally read that Universal had those views I thought we may never get to see them on BD. It's a shame though that the upcoming set is not as expansive (regarding the number of films) as the previous DVD Legacy sets, as I personally like the whole lot in one nice batch (aside from the Invisible Man and Creature sequels, which I'm not so bothered about). Even the Mummy sequels that you sent me are pretty good fun. Anyway, no complaints though (unless the Spanish language Dracula doesn't appear on the UK set!!) as this is a really good start.Paul WJMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14745200069891956986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-728634156714798178.post-7470594432343544382012-06-30T23:41:57.494+01:002012-06-30T23:41:57.494+01:00Apparently, Universal are claiming that these mons...Apparently, Universal are claiming that these monster movies aren't big sellersfor them and it needed some persuading for them to be released on BD. Somehow, that sounds like spin to me; I'm guessing they know fans are expecting the inevitable double-dip down the line when they put the equivalent of the Legacy sets out on Blu-ray. This odd claim suggests they're hoping to spook some into thinking that if sales of the initial set aren't up to snuff then there won't be any more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
