DvD Shopping

Okay as i am a fairly new fan to stargate which i havent only gotten into recently in about the last 2 months, i have managed to purchase all of season 1&2 on DVD.

I got the Season 1 Box Set from canada and volumes 1-7 here in Australia which features some season 1 eps and the complete 22 eps from Season 2, All up both Seasons on dvd cost me close if not over $500 which is really expensive but i'd prefer to buy dvd over video because of all extra features dvd movies have etc and they last pretty much a life time if you treat them well and don't get chewed by video players

i just visited this Uk web site , i think it was there was a link on the main page of this forum site.. anyway they have all of season 3 & 4 .... ! and i was like thats so unfair because it puts autralia at a disadvantage because we only have season 2 on dvd here and 20th centry fox have said they won't realease the season 1 box set so the only way you can get it is if you have a multi reigon dvd player and willing to order it in from over seas like i did

do you think it's worth my while or anybody elses to order these from over seas or wait like a whole year to catch up on all the stargate eps because you can never tell when channel 7 will play certain eps and certain times

lemme know what you think...

s3 is starting to be released on dvd in uhmm... february with volumes 8 + 9.

personally i'd wait, because of the australian dollar but then again i have all the eps taped and bought on video

 

[mordy]

Yeah i checked out www.ezydvd.com.au and volumes 8 & 9 are out on feb 13 i think, but yeah your right i am gonna wait a bit till maybe at least the whole season 3 is out but it looks like it's heading the way the Uk is at the moment as they have all season 2,3&4 in volumes 1-19 or somthing exactley the same as us


But i got the Season 1 Box set so NER NER
:rolly2:

the aussie DVD's are exact copies of the UK DVD's, except the region coding.

im getting a PS2 and they can have multi region coding for DVD's so im eventually gonna get the S1 boxset

 

[mordy]

Yeah your right, they are exact copys

Good move with the PS2 and yes i think they are multi region you won't regret buying the season 1 box set it's pretty kewl as i have it

I can't believe how daft MGM are being with the releases of SG1 on DVD.

I've got season 2 onwards but not Season 1. Bought it on video but now sold because hopefully going to get it on Region 1. We've managed to change our DVD player to multi-region so we can play both. Its an outrage really but what can you do.

[mordy]

It's Not Mgm's fault , you can blame 20th Centry Fox for that , if your interestred annette i can get the season 1 box set for you for around $225 , drop me a line if you interested

 

[Annette]

Hi, I have found a website which sells Region 1 DVD's. Season 1 boxset costs £49.99 which is pretty good and also no shipping charges. Thanks anyway.

[mordy]

ahh sorry hon , i assumed you where a Aussie lol

 

[Annette]

No problem Hammond. Just thought I'd put my awe in.

[mordy]

Actually you guys are very lucky having access to buy seasons 2,3&4. Us Aussies only have all of season 2 here and we don't start getting season 3 till febuary next year which i can't wait to get because i've finished watching all of my season 1 & 2 dvd's

 

[Annette]

I'm glad in a way that we do get some things before you and the US BUT would love your warm weather as I hate the cold.


annette

 

[mordy]

perhaps i can pop through the stargate and get that weather control device eh ?

 

[Annette]

That'd be brilliant. We could do with the temperature being turned up a bit. Its tooooooooooo cold here at the moment. Been down to -5 degrees over the weekend.

Have watched some of the DVD extras and they are brilliant, includes interviews with the stars.

[mordy]

Yeah the extra's are great thats whats so good about buying dvd's now over VHS
