| AWESOME SHOW< Price, NO WAY!!!! |
I am sorry, this is a great show that had a great movie spin off. BUT I am sorry, 14 episodes of a cancelled show is not worth $65. When a show with just a few less episodes, Terminator - The Sarah Connor Chronicles - The Complete First Season on Blu-ray with 9 episodes is $27.95.
Maybe someday I will upgrade when this priced like it should be, $29.99.
GREAT show, BAD price FOX, just milking the HUGE fan base of this show. |

| terrible price |
I agree with everyone else, this show is so amazing that at some point I will need this(cause two box sets and two versions of the movie aren't enough) but I'll wait and get it cheaper the price is crazy even with the discount! |

| Great Show(s) |
I loved the series and also serenity, i own the 5 dvd edition already, but i would love the blu-ray version. like others, the pricing on this (and other blu-ray titles) is just ridiculous.
this is what happens when you have a greedy corporate entity (sony) with no comparable format competition. once the format battle was settled, the pricing on all standalone bd players increased and the pricing on all bd movies also increased. i had quite a few bd titles in my wish list, and today is the first day i've logged on in quite awhile, and every title in my wishlist had increased in pricing from $2 on some titles to almost $10 for other titles.
the bd price scheme is a total hose job. at one point (during the format wars) bd pricing was reasonable and i would purchase about 8 or 10 bd titles monthly, but now i rarely purchase any due to the price increases.
someone needs to do something about the way bd consumers are getting shafted with pricing, the only real recourse we have is not to purchase i guess, and i've already started that by only purchasing titles on sale, i can't afford to buy titles on a whim like i had been.

| Is This Price Some Sort of JOKE? |
I own the original series DVD set, the regular edition of the film Serenity, The SPECIAL EDITION of the film Serenity and the UMD for PSP of the film Serenity.
All these things together BARELY cost the same as this 13 episode Blu-Ray set of the series.
It. Is. Ridiculous.
With this ruttin' economy I just cannot afford to buy this.
Not to mention that the original DVDs look amazing and do display in 16:9 for widescreen. The only reasons I can see to get this at this ridiculous price is if one has:
1) Deep Pockets
2) A 1080p display AND if they have LOADS of extras not on the original.
HEAR THAT FOX?! You better beef this up! |

| ...and to think |
that this greedily-priced offering profits the asshats at fox who sabotaged and canceled the show, only to have milked it for profit ever since it became a phenomenon. screw them...buy the collector's edition of serenity and put money into universal's pocket instead, since they had the integrity and good taste to rescue firefly from the purgatory that prematurely-cancelled tv shows occupy by allowing joss to conclude the main story arc. even if fox weren't such gorram idiots, buying this would do nothing to improve chances for a sequel, since universal and not fox are the ones counting the beans to decide if a sequel is worth it.
5 stars for content, 0 stars for price and studio. |
