Just picked up the quadrilogy. Man it\'s going to take forever to watch these. Hope the director\'s versions were worth it. Anyone else out there own this set? If so, what do you think of it? I guess what prompted me was the new wscreen HDTV.

Well I was actually asking people\'s opionion of the set. So you are saying that a question should go into the journal forum?
If so, sorrrry for my mistake. Then again maybe not.

Yea. i\'ve got the box set too, pretty cool. I haven\'t noticed many differences, besides effects. but in the 3rd she doesn\'t have the alien burst out of her chest...

The additional 17 minutes in the so-called "special edition" of Aliens, which has actually been available for quite a while, is worthwhile.  It doesn\'t include anything essential to the story, but it\'s worthwhile.  I don\'t dislike it.

The so-called "special edition" of Alien3 is essential in my opinion.  It is MUCH better than the theatrical version.  The alien birth sequence is immensely superior, and there are many other bits and pieces that make the story more logical.  I\'ve always liked Alien3, and I\'m really glad this version is available now.

Regarding Alien, the "special edition" or "director\'s cut" or whatever it\'s called, is a BIG MISTAKE.  The restored scenes are not necessary, and in the case of the cocoon scene near the end, they completely destroy the pacing.  As far as I\'m concerned, the theatrical version of Alien is the best version.

I have no comment or interest in Alien Resurrection.  Jean-Pierre Jeunet can go to hell, stupid hack.

Ditto to that man.

Joss Whedon even disowned Alien Resurection.

I thought as  story it was interesting, as a part of the alien franchise it was horrid
I recently discovered that my ass is the key to the universe.....now I must fight to protect my ass from those who might abuse it!!!

Uhhhhh...

This set has been around for like...a year?
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

I don\'t think that the time it\'s been out was a question. It\'s more of what others might think of it. Quite possibly more people would have it or have had it now that it has been out for some time...
