It seems that MGM has pulled TLD from the marketing campaign due to the Afghanistan issues it has. Just wonderful...

Should be back for the second box.

Hmmm. I think we've determined this isn't the case as the TLD DVD is listed with the others as coming soon. In the US they're releasing them 7 at a time and in no particular order. Not sure if they'll do a set.

Speaking of DVDs...I've seen a couple bootleg DAD DVDs already on eBay. They were pulled, put they are out there.

Doesn't anyone see these people with cameras at the screenings?!

MGM will be releasing one set of the DVDs every year, with the complete series consisting of three sets.
These are the same DVDs that were available in 1999. I bought all three DVD sets in the period of one year back then as they were released all within the period of one year. I am not sure why they are spreading the releases out more this time around.

Did you all notice how Live and Let Die and Licence to kill were not as good in picture quality as all the rest. These two were mastered by another digital compression company then all the others.

Does anyone who has the new edition of Licence to Kill know if the audio sync issue has been corrected. On the DVD that came out in 1999, at the end when Pam is driving the truck she says, "What are you waiting for? Get in!" and Bond replies, "Yes sir". These lines are completely out of sync on the old disc. Does the new one get it right?

TLD was pulled because Sam Neill objected to the inclusion of his audition footage...
I'm glad I picked up my copy in 2000.
