I'm in a similar boat. These big collections would be nice to have, but no way in hell can I afford it, or justify the expense if I could.mikelcho wrote:Well, with my being unemployed, that's it, it's dead, it's over, I have to dig a grave for it right now. Same with the Criterion Godzilla set.
The only way I'm going to get either of them is as a birthday present and/or a Christmas present - and starting last year, my parents started not giving such things to me or anyone else in my family because of financial circumstances, not just mine, but everyone's. They also said they don't want anything anymore from any of us because of their age.
Thanks. At least I know I'm not the only one with this problem.Vakanai wrote:I'm in a similar boat.

Luckily I already own most of these movies, even if not all in one handy collection or in the best current visual format or whatever.
Nope, not alone. Personally I can't imagine spending more than $40 on just one box set, and that's still my definition of steep.mikelcho wrote:Thanks.

That's the big bummer for me, it's the one Gamera movie I want that I don't have, and there's no affordable options.JAGzilla wrote:Yeesh. I wouldn't have expected a Gamera set to cost so much. I already have all but one of these movies on DVD, so I'll probably pass unless I find it on sale or something. *sigh* Somebody needs to release GTB on its own.

Arrow is a label known for producing editions comparable to Criterion's output in terms of content, except focused on less high-brow genre fare. There's going to be some care taken with the presentation of the films.LSD Jellyfish wrote:Unless I’m missing something here, how/why would people pay that much for this collection? I don’t mean to start an argument or anything, but I’m pretty sure the mill creek Gamera collection was super cheap, and you. An probably easily get a cheaper/better version of Gamera 3 due to the bad subtitling in that one.
Despite its issues, the Criterion Godzilla set had more films, a bunch of cool art work and multiple tracks. It’s also the first time in a bit that the films are so easily available, Gamera has had collections for a while.
Okay, makes a lot of sense!omgitsgodzilla wrote:-snip-

I wanna see a Gamera film tackle this, where an innocent child he saved in the past grows up into a villain he has to stop.
