Great Films - Horrible Package
this is a collection of great films in the most horrilbe package that could possible be designed. the box is badly sized, extremely heavy and utterly unnecessary. the way the dvd's are packaged within the box is sheer idiocy: suspended (or not) on weird, gel-like, rubber spindles that make dvd removal and replacement extremely difficult. additionally, fox was too cheap to put each film on its own dvd, and the packaging has no labeling, so one is also faced with the prospect of trying to read the miniscule printing around the spindle hole on the dvd.
overall, this idiot collection offers yet more proof that sonny bono hit that tree a few years too late.
the modern day fox company doesn't deserve to have the rights to these pictures under its control. this is particularly true as one discovers how little care fox took of the negatives and original prints, and how indebted we are to the universities and museums that preserved this stuff.
this box is an utter and complete waste of money. |  | Reviewed on 2008-06-08
Ford At Fox - The Collection
A must have for any movie collector. The companion book has great pictures and the majority of the movies have been remastered and look great! | | Reviewed on 2008-01-19
Big is not always best!
Thanks to Fox to release this immortal masterpieces on DVD! Go on to do so with the work other famous directors! When will Frank Borzage at Fox come out?
The box Ford at Fox is much too large to handle. What counts are the films and the bonus materials!!! But it is the only possibility to get most of the films on DVD, so one has to buy all of it... | | Reviewed on 2008-01-08
FRUITS OF FORD AT FOX
A superb andmonumental collection of the great Irish American director's work with a single studio from silent days with the William Fox Studios to sound days with 20th Century Fox, a fruitful collaboration with Producer Darryl F. Zanuck that yielded such masterworks as THE IRON HORSE, FOUR SONS, PILGRIMAGE, STEAMBOAT AROUND THE BEND, YOUNG MR LINCOLN, GRAPES OF WRATH and MY DARLING CLEMENTINE etc... The delight is in these films and also in the lesser known works, including his WWII documentaries BATTLE OF MIDWAY, DECEMBER 7TH etc., which add to the richness of the package... Henry Fonda is the star of choice in the 1940's, and John Wayne is not to be found in any on the 24 films... Highly recommended! | | Reviewed on 2008-01-04
Avoid due to quality control issues!
This set is impressive, no doubt. The collection of films is fantastic; the packaging looks nice, but it's all over the internet: the way the discs are secured damages them.
My set arrived-- with all of the discs on their spindles appropriately-- and EVERY ONE had significant scratches due to the method by which they were SCREWED ON to the spindles.
Were I the only person with this issue, I wouldn't score this set so poorly, but I have talked to dozens of people who purchased the set. Only ONE received his without significant scratching. I've tried contacting Fox, but they have been no help at all. | |
