I see that circuit city is putting 4 James bond DVD's on sale for 12.99
Amazing considering they were $24 - $27
a couple weeks ago.

Is this in advance of the rumor I heard, that they were re-releasing the entire
James Bond catalog in digital?

    I highly recommend these Special Editions of the SIX ACTUAL BOND FILMS, that is the six CONNERY AS BOND films, two of which are included in this set.

    The price is a perfect bargain, too. Excellent discs.

    Just picked up one of the boxed sets of Bond on DVD (Dr. No etc). Looks and sounds sweet, although only DD, not DTS :( I got them for $109 CDN !! What's that, about $40 US lol. Great deal for 7 great movies. What a difference from the VHS set I have.

    PS,
    complete VHS Bond Collection now on sale, cheap ! Except for Her Majesty's Secret Service, which in my opinion isn't a real Bond flick ( I hate Lazenby as Bond)

    Yeah got the same collection at BB.

    Shack had a good link to the other collections, but man, some of them are pretty pricey....$230. used?

    I liked Her majesty's secret service.
    Yeah Lazenby isn't Sean Connery,
    but it's a good script and,
    I dig the ski chase footage.
    Diana (Emma Peel) Rigg looked pretty cute too.
