The Criterion Collection will finally release Seven Samurai on October 19.

With Back to the Future Trilogy and Alien Anthology coming a week later, October will be my most anticipated month for blu-ray this year.

You need to use a US iTunes account.

I managed to register without a credit card 2 years ago. My friend tried to register a few months ago, a valid US credit card required as well so he gave up. I guess now it's no longer possible to register a US account without a US credit card as it checks for valid billing address.

At $29.99 it's hard to resist. It's a nice digibook as well.

This been sitting in my office since last week, as I was away for a training.



Has been waiting so long to get this, finally the price was just right.

I've considered all options, in fact almost bought the UK versions just because of the booklet. But then found out that this version has all the info on that booklet printed on the inside cover of each season, coupled with the fact that it has The Plan together pushed me to get this US edition instead. Of course I had to wait for the right price, and at this price buying the set and The Plan from UK would cost me more.

If I get the UK version I have to buy The Plan separately and I don't want it to sit on the shelf on it's own, separated from the big family. Just my thing.

I've got many more shows on the shelf begging me to watch them, The Universe Season 4, Fringe Season 1, Clone Wars Season 1. Add to that the DVD collection I've bought since years ago, The X-Files, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, all of them complete seasons.

Looks like I need to take a long holiday.

Just to let everyone know, this current edition uses flimsy paper box, just like the UK edition.

The hard box with magnetic flap is no longer available.

Die Hard 1 & 2 PQ aren't that bad, 3 to 3.5 stars I would rate it. Vengeance is 3.75 stars and the fourth one of course 5 stars. Too bad I missed that amazing deal.

Whoa, didn't see that. Will place my order now. Thanks bro.

First 2 maybe, but the third is quite good.

This is the best the movies will ever look IMO, the source is not in the best condition in the first place. If they remaster it could end up like the new Predator UHE which is much worse.
