ALIEN Quadrilogy (9 disc SET) !!!

[RoboDan]

What in the hell are they talking about? The Alien DVD is in fact a true 5.1 source. I know myself, because I de-coded all the channels fully for use in my new trailer.

(the current DVD mistakenly used a 4.0 track to create the "5.1" audio).

yes... all ALien DVDs are 5.1 sound, but u can have mono source and still make a 5.1 sound but this sounds bad....

with Alien DVD , Ridley Scott had full control in the re-edit or re mix of the tracks(this movie is recorded in stereo), and they even made a 6 track or DD EX capable track for Alien DVD, but when Fox made the DVD, they used an old 4 channel source which was used b4 on the LaserDisc.. =(

The new DVD will sourely sound better and hopefully also Aliens (part 2) will sound better coz thats the worde sounding mix in the series, they simply re mixed the stereo into 5.1 but was done bad.. =(

Question is will it be worth getting the box again. Only extras so far are extended ALien3 (which isn't much.. and poor) and a docu.

If thats all... meh!

[trailergod]

updated again with some new rumored specs....

I have Alien and Aliens DVDs. If I could sell them for 15EUR I might go for the boxset.

[trailergod]

if u check any online store..the current ALIEN DVDS are already

Out of stock

search at amazon for the alien DVDs....

they still sell them here but very cheap coz i think they are just trying to get rid of the stocks...

i guess Fox did stop making these DVDs alreadyand is preparing for the 9 disc set:big grin:

The previous Aliens boxset has been OOP for quite some time here in the States already... Glad I picked it up for $40 last year.

i still have the thx laserdisc of alien in olby digital and it sounds much better then the dvd. the dvd misses out the full lfe track and i allways had the feeling that the alien dvd has no bass at all i hope that fox makes some really cool dvd set with the new ones and fixes all the problems that the first had

me too actually!!! and yah i think they are better than the DVD... although too much trouble. how much discs- i forgot? like 10? lol but only half are actually the movie, Aliens.

[hicks]

I don't have the actual, "Box Set" but I do have the 4 DVDs seperately.

I'm the biggest Alien Legacy fan I know. I've written my own stories, scripts and everything... and this almost sounds too good to be true.

bump....

just read that 1st of December is the release date :big grin: :big grin: :big grin:

[streetpreacher]

i'm really looking forward to this set, but the thing that bothers me is the fact that they plan to do more alien movies.
that means this will only be the ultimate set for the first four films, i see more coming, just like the star trek sets

Part III - Inside the Alien Quadrilogy

We take a look at the hard work involved in putting together a great DVD special edition. Our friends at Twentieth Century Fox have allowed us to go behind-the-scenes on the making of their forthcoming, 9-disc Alien Quadrilogy special edition box set. We've done an extensive, in-depth interview with DVD producer Charles de Lauzirika, in which you'll learn about the process of producing, the exciting and never-before-seen extras included on the set, the participation of the actors, directors and other talent, and the creation of new special edition versions of the films. You'll also learn about the effort to reconstruct the original cut of Alien³, and the new special effects work that was required to finish deleted scenes for Alien, Alien³ and Alien: Resurrection. And that's just for starters. We also interview Alien director Ridley Scott, reveal interesting production facts and stats, take you behind-the-scenes on a typical audio commentary session with cast members and more. This section also features all-new, behind-the-scenes photos of the work and those involved.
