Battlestar Galactica Complete Series - Page 3

Ditto

D'OH!

Last night I watched the final two episodes of season 4. Holy ****! Talk about a shocker finale. Now I have to go insane waiting for the end of the month when Sci-Fi does their marathon run of season 4.5, including the finale. I am dieing to see what happens next and how it all ends.

Would love to have a price figure on this series BD.

Any news?

heard somewhere it's out in July. All I know is this is going to be a wallet buster $$$.

Still, It's going to be nice to see the series finally, specifically the first hour, in non-macroblocked, compressed craptastic cable HD.

I was all jazzed for this release until I learned that there was a two-hour movie called BSG: The Plan slated for this fall. I'd rather they wait and include everything.

There never was any news, unless reporting rumors that "some guy who knows somebody who said..." is news.

It's not a follow up to the series but rather a retelling of certain events from a Cylon viewpoint. Personally, I see no reason for it to be included in the series set.

I don't see how it is any different than BSG: Razor, which I assumed was included in the rumored set. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

You may not believe there is any truth to it, but rumors from industry sources are definitely news. Especially if they have any sort of credible track record.

I don't think this has been posted here:

I will assume you're not talking about one being about a Battlestar crew and the other being about Cylons.

I think I know what you mean, both are technically "movies". Personally I think they should include both or neither, then they could release a 2 pack later.

As long as everything BSG is on Blu-ray I'll be happy.

Was it just me or did they remove a good bit of the grain for the last half of the final season?

If the complete series is released in July I would bet that the cost will be north of $200 . Having seen every episode I will wait it out until say the day after Thanksgiving when it will surely be on sale .

really a website reports that on a blog a guy who has a friend on the inside said...when universal announces something that's news. lot's of people hated the ending i thought it worked great! keep a open mind when you see it.

Sounds like a good plan to me.

Unless I can get it at 40% off, I'll wait for the initial lunacy to subside and buy a copy for next to nothing off of eBay or even better, an amazon seller, that way I have a guarantee. That's what I did for seasons 3 & 4 of LOST. Worked out very well. Both times I was able to snag them at 50% off, including shipping costs.

BG is, hands down, a top 3 series of all time.

That's a press release.

If they decide not to offer individual seasons (and just do one giant $$$$ boxset) then I won't be buying the Blu-ray. I already have season 1 on HD-DVD and 2-3/Razor on dvd which looks nearly as good upconverted.

I may be one of the few people on AVS that has not seen BSG. The last sci-fi series I was hooked on to was Star Trek: TNG. Looking forward to watching BSG from the beginning.

Please limit discussion to BD (show talk is already in other forum). Thanks.

A little more confirmation of the release date

Now that is encouraging! But I wish they'd posted it yesterday (or tomorrow).

Augh! July isn't getting here fast enough.

I finally watched the final episode last night. Man what a way to go out.

I really hope that the BD gets some 7.1 HD codec loving. Some of those scenes will shake the house down!

Be nice. But I'd be really surprised if they remixed the audio. I'm sure we'll get 5.1 lossless and a new video encode from the HD masters, and really, what more could we reasonably want? (Extras and deleted scenes in HD, that's what!)

Same here. I have way too much content to catch up with in my catelogue & I LOVE the re-imagining of BSG like no other Sci-Fi series before.

Erm, I was being nice. I hope for a really good transfer with enough opmh to give me speakers a workout.

I liked the ending, and the social comment right at the end.

So it's looking more and more realistic with each passing week.

Brandon

And expensive.

While I'm scared of a high price on one hand... On the other hand, I think they'd better apply some intelligence.

Consider... I've seen the entire Star Trek Next Gen 7-season set on DVD for around $200 now... but it was $100 per season as it originally came out.

Now I know Battlestar will be on Blu-ray, but still only 4 seasons + the mini-series + Razor... so if it costs more than $200 it'll probably sit on the shelves for a while.

I bought the mini... then bought Season 1 (got the mini a 2nd time that way) then bought season 2.0 and 2.5... but I stopped at that point hoping for HD/Blu-ray seasons.

Also consider Star Trek Season 1 on Blu is about $73.00 on Amazon for preorder right now... that'd be about $219 for all 3 original seasons if that price holds. Now granted they are old shows, and only some of the stuff was newly generated HD-effects... but still there's like 75+ episodes of that show as the seasons were longer than BSG seasons have been.

Bottom line for me, as much as I want this, if it is too expensive I can wait... since I just watched the show very recently... so I can wait for the price to come down over time.

Sorry. I meant "[It would] be nice." Sometimes I write the way I talk.

I wouldn't be willing to go higher than $120 and would really prefer it in the $90 range. Looks like I'll be waiting awhile.
