Great For Someone Who Doesn't Have It Already
At the beginning of this year I decided to finally see what the X-Files is all about and fell in love with the first two seasons. I went for the more cheap slim pack dollar sets instead of the original releases that were 80 dollars. However with the slim pack sets you weren't given any of the extra features. However once I heard the announcement of a complete set of the originals plus the movie and extras from the mythology sets I decided to forego buying the other slim pack sets and just buying the complete collection. The set has each of the nine seasons, the Fight the Future, and the threads of mythology disc with four featurettes. Each actual season comes with the bonus features that were released on the original X-Files sets which include deleted scenes, tv spots, commentaries, documentaries, and more for each specific season.
I say that if you are a huge fan of X-Files or want to complete your X-Files collection this is a must buy.
Here we go again...
This product, according to Fox, gathers together all nine seasons, the film, and the Mythology Threads featurettes off the Mythology collections. The nine seasons are thankfully in the original release format, with all special features included. The feature film appears to have the same contents as the current DVD release as well. As for the featurettes, they appear on a disc of their own.
For a box set this big (61 discs), it's priced fairly reasonably as opposed to the 9-season collection that can be found elsewhere on Amazon. However, Fox needs to make sure this is the last time they re-dip the series; maybe they should release it on Blu-Ray to make the HD fanboys happy.
Be warned: if you bought the initial season-by-season releases (not the slimpaks) and the movie separately, there's nothing new here. The featurettes on the last disc are also nothing new, as they appeared on the pointless Mythology arc sets that were released on DVD a while back. However, for anyone new to the series or anyone who's been hesitating to buy the series on DVD, this is a great pickup for its price.
5 stars for the series, 3.5 stars for this set.
great set at a great price, but box damaged easily
Awesome set at an awesome price but whoever designed the box did not take into account the heaviness of 61 dvds- the bottom becomes dislodged and traps the drawer underneath (as mine did during shipping). Other than that it is a great set and I'm looking forward to 9000+ minutes of bliss!
