Well that settles it, where is my wallet? Time to abuse my credit card (again). To quote an unnamed toon: "it's mine, mine, all mine!"

A couple of points. 1. The length. When people in the TV buisness say 4 hours they mean WITH commericals. The miniseries is probably (if it is in the work at all) geared towards being the equivilant of 4 episodes. Probably 2 "2 hour" parts. The total runtime would thus likely be a little...

I find this very unlikely. Usually when a film is made based on a TV show WITHOUT the original actors it is a remake of some sort (see The Fugitive and Charlies Angels for example). The original story (if any) is rehashed and as these movies are often made long after the TV shows go off the...

Re: Season Three on video???? There really isn't anything at all strange about this. Consider that in 1986 electronics were more expensive in general. The advances in manufacturing electronic goods in the past 10-15 years is astounding. Think about all the stuff you have now that you didn't...

Re: Season Three on video???? Midis and MP3 are file formats for music. MP3 being the far more popular and usefull of the two. The reason DVD players are now becomming cheaper then VCRs is because there are a lot of DVD players being built and sold these days compared to VCRs. With mass...

It's unfortunate that the restoration process is so expansive. Even for movies, it's only a few classics that receive a decent treatment. With a single season of a TV shows being about 10x as long as the average movie it's clear the very few (if any) TV shows will ever have it's film restored...

Re: Have a look at this won\'t you So far I've been buying the R2 version (it's cheaper and I've been very happy with Play). But if it's going to be 3 months behind this time around then I'm getting the R1 release of season 3.

The impurities (the flickers) are scratches on the original film. Due to the DVDs high resolution and over all quality impurities like these stand out. On VHS tapes and in broadcasts the image is likely to lose some focus (become softer) and that will often hide stuff like this. Unfortunately...

Re: Anyone else got problems playing the S2 DVD\'s? Fortunately all my disks were securely fastened. Still if there are no visible scratches it's unlikely that the disks were damaged in transit (they may of course be a faulty production). Try them out in another DVD player and pay especial...

Re: Anyone else got problems playing the S2 DVD\'s? I got my R2 set from Play as well. I'm about half way through and so far no problems with the playback.

I ordered mine from Play the moment they came up for pre-order @ 33.99, before the raised it to 42.99. Saved myself 9 pounds there. They shipped it yesterday, so I'll get it on Monday or Tuesday if the mail doesn't screw up.

Re: A little help if you don\'t mind The two buttons do the exact same thing. Only one does it with CGI and the other with PHP. So no biggie. Anyway, thanks all for your help. I've gotten sufficient replies now. (Feel free to add your's anyway if you like though).

A little help if you don\'t mind As a part of a course I'm taking at school I'm building a website/project/thing about scifi on tv. Part of this is project involves getting people to answer a questionnaire. If you could take the time to answer it I'd really appreciate it. Located here...

They've finally gotten it in stock and are processing my order. It's finally really happening. I should have my copy sometime next week. Yippy

Re: Amazon.de lowers price to 29.99€!! Even though I could save about 25% by order from amazon.de, I'm going to stick with the boxset wih "english" coverart. A part of the reason I want to own B5 is that it'll look good in my DVD collection. The german coverart would much diminish that.

I've order over 20 dvds from them this year. Every one has been shipped within a reasonable amount of time and everyone of them has been correctly charged to my credit card. Play may not the quickest to dispatch but they are reliable. And yes, there is no additional postage cost. Not just in...

They've lowered their price yet again. Not that I'm complaining about lower prices but since outstanding preorders are not updated with new prices, I've now had to cancel my order and reorder the set twice... Just thought I'd geve those of you who have preorder from them a headsup so you can...

Actually this could very well be the RRP. Play.com has been listing it as such and is offering the box set for 39.99. It initially listed the RRP as much higher and their price as 49.99 so it's possible that other sites are operating on outdated information and haven't gotten around to fixing...

I just noticed that play.com has dropped it's price from 49.99 pounds to 39.99 for the R2 version. At the same time I noticed that they did not yet list any extras. This got me thinking if there might be some difference between the R1 and R2 versions. No R2 retailer that I checked listed any...
