5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute must-own for an Alien FAN!! (Like me.), Oct 25 2005

This review is from: NEW Alien Quadrilogy (DVD) (DVD)

Holy heck where do I start? I dunno how this set is only worth a hundred bucks! Nine discs and every single thing any Alien fan could ask for!

This set is better than the Star Wars set, the Indiana Jones set, the Jurassic Park set, holy cow! This has two discs for every movie, plus a bonus disc with tons of other cool features! Man... every Sci-Fi fan needs to own this, as well as the Predator films. It don't get better than this!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars David Finchers negative critics, GET A LIFE, Jun 24 2005

You dont understand why David Fincher did'nt contribute on Quad?????? tell me what would you do?????, June 25, 2005
Reviewer: M. taylor "alien crazy" (Australia) - See all my reviews

I own Alien Quad region 1 and 4 (Australian and US version)and also Alien Legacy (region 2 UK, 5 disk limited edition)i came up with this crazy idea to experiment with my multi-region player and to compare the difference in these box sets (obviously one has to be a mad collecter to do this). And yes even though the 2 Quads are almost the same in material (Legacy has material Quads don't have), they all differ in different ways, and i have had a ball comparing and collecting, and i have bonus material coming out of my ears, not a bad way to recover from 2 time consuming operations.

Result: Alien Quad region 1 US Rules
Why????

Region 1 Picture and sound quality is better

Region 1 has a deleted scene marker, region 2 and 4 do not.

Region 1 has deleted scenes in Theatre release menus, region 4 does not.

Region 4 jumps, pauses, flashes, all by a spit second (not a big deal)

Region 4 has a great and safe box design and artwork, region 1 is bigger has more artwork BUT is vunrable to fall apart although i have'nt had the problems other people have had, my advise is look after your box and be gentle and it should last.
Region 2 Alien Legacy has a great 5th disk (material not seen in any Quad boxes)and cool original cases. Region 1 US RULES and im Australian.

All you people critizing David Fincher for not contributing on commentary's for Alien 3, do some research with the crap he had to put up with so you know what you are complaining about(no wonder he did'nt want to show up, and tell me what would you do???????)

David Fincher negative critics GET A LIFE, for positive or nasty remarks you can email me on taylor5821@hotmail.com

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST BUY EVER ON DVD!!!!!, Aug 9 2004

jason (AMERICA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: NEW Alien Quadrilogy (DVD) (DVD)

MOST PROBABLY THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND ENTERTAINING DVD COLLECTION EVER!!!! ANY ALIEN FAN WILL DIE WHEN THE READ ITS CONTENTS, OFFERING US DIRECTORS CUTS OF EACH FILM. THOUGH ALIEN3 ISNT TECHNICALLY A DIRECTORS CUT ITS RUNNING TIME HAS THE MOST FOOTAGE INCREASED. LITERRALY EVERY ASPECT OF FILMING IS INCLUDED IN THE NUMEROUS BEHIND THE SCENES ARCHIVES AND THE FILMS ARE ALL ACCOMPANIED WITH EXTENSIVE COMMENTARYS, WITH THE NOTABLE EXCEPTION OF THE FOOLISH AND ULTIMATELY UNGRATEFUL DAVID FINCHER. HE COULD NOT BE PRAISED MORE BY THE OTHER DIRECTORS AND EVEN THE PRODUCERS AND HIS SUPPOSED FALIURE ALIEN3 HAS BEEN RESTORED WITH THE MATERIAL THEY APPARENTLY SOOO NEEDED TO MAKE THE FILM WORK. FACT -ALIEN 3 IS A MASTERPIECE DIREC CUT OR NOT AND A FINE CONCLUSION TO THE SERIOUS SERIES UNLIKE THE CAMPY AND HILLARIOUS ALIEN RESURRECTION WICH WAS SO SILLY I SOMETIMES EVEN FORGOT THEY MADE IT AND INCLUDED IT IN THIS BOXSET. TRULY ALIEN DIES WITH DIGNITY AS A TRILOGY ALONG WITH HANNIBAL LECTERS TRILOGY, SCREAM,AND STAR WARS.
