Goldbox - Rating: 5/5
I ordered this item when amazon had their Goldbox deal on it and its great.. All these movies look amazing totally worth the money
Scr***d by the Goldbox Deal - Rating: 1/5
It's only $3 but it's the principle of the matter. I bought the Goldbox deal for 79.99 and the next day this went down to 76.99. You know that isn't right Amazon. Take the $3 off everyone's Goldbox order. I'm a loyal customer and I don't appreciate this at all.
Amazon screws us again - Rating: 1/5
I had thought Amazon would learn something after the price increase fiasco, but now it has screwed us in the opposite manner. I had purchased this boxset for $79.99 on a GoldBox deal. Just 2 days later i see it going for $76.99! Thanks a lot Amazon, you are really good at losing the trust of your customers. The least you can do is reintroduce your price drop policy. I would have saved around $50 from the shopping i did here in the last month itself.
Hours of super-hero fun at a reasonable price - Rating: 4/5
For those of you who are worried given the negative reviews due to cancellation, I received my copy on time, and I am quite pleased with the price given the volume of movies in this set.
All of these movies appear to be exactly the same as the individual blu-ray movies also available on Amazon, so I won't go too in-depth into a review of individual movies (there are plenty of excellant reviews on the individual pages already). To me these movies range in quality from quite good (I found Spider-Man 1 & 2, Underworld, and Hellboy to be particularly enjoyable) to OK. If you are into these sorts of movies, I would suggest purchasing while the set is available.
One thing specific to this set that may be worth mentioning is that the item pictured on the page appears to be in a single cardboard box or sleeve. This was not the case for me. Four of the movies are singles, and the Spider-Man trilogy is a set of three singles in the special cardboard trilogy sleeve (the trilogy set is available on Amazon, as are the individual movies). I want to be clear that this is not a criticism. Personally, I don't care about having an additional cardboard sleeve laying about, and I probably wouldn't use it even if I did have it.
Patience is a virtue - Rating: 5/5
Amazon is just like the stock market... You have to wait to buy low. I picked up this bundle for 91.99, which is a great price (in my opinion) for these movies. I hope those other people that were interested finally picked up this bundle!
