BTVS DVDs - The Complete Collection

Cordy's Bitch · 09-09-2005, 04:12 PM

Okay, in November they're releasing a complete Seasons 1-7 collection with a standard retail price of about $200.

Is anyone buying this? I haven't bought any of the previous seasons, but if I had I don't think I'd be very appreciative of the double dipping here...why would I have wanted to spend $40-50 bucks a pop on the individual seasons if I could've just waited to get them all in one pop, and cheaper, too?

Eh...I was never going to buy them anyway...

I wouldn't buy it because I already have 1-5 of BTVS, but I'd be damn appreciative if I *didn't* have it and this came out. Yeah, it's double dipping, but these days, it's something you should almost anticipate... if you can wait that long.

I don't know what it's like over there in the States, but you had to work really hard to buy the Buffy DVD's at the full price over here. There isn't much of a saving between buying the full box set, than buying the individual ones...

Q: There’s a new Buffy set coming in November, this big DVD box. Why should fans buy that?

Whedon: If they already have all of them, I don’t know if they should. But if they don’t… It’s complete, and I know that they’ve added a bunch of new things. We did a roundtable discussion for an hour and a half that they’re going to put together – hopefully 20 minutes of it is usable. Between me, Marti Noxon, David Fury, Jane Espenson, Doug Petrie, Drew Goddard, Nicky Brendon, Charisma Carpenter, Emma Caulfield, Danny Strong; it was really fun. We were really hashing it out, talking about favorite stuff, what we thought about this and that. A lot of it is off-topic and quite rude. But some of it was really interesting and fun. We tried to create something where we really got a perspective on it and got to hash it out, because we really love talking about that stuff.

Hmmm...I foresee the need for an animated icon when that one comes out, lol.
