Classic War Movie Collection

Sep 20, 2003 2 Replies

Some of you UKers will have noticed the new De Agostini TV advert concerning the 'The Classic War Movie Collection', but just incase you havent, here's the low-down on it.



From what I can deduce, De Agostini are releasing 20 classic war movies on DVD at a decent price. The first one, Bridge On The River Kwai, is at the introductory price of £3.99, with the remaining films at £9.99. The next film is the Guns of Navarone, followed by Where Eagles Dare, then Hamburger Hill and Das Boot. Note: if you intended to take up the entire collection, subscribe to get them and receive a few extra goodies free of charge - including Lawrence of Arabia DVD!!



I actually checked HMV for the prices of some of the later releases and they fluctuated from £9.99 to £16.99 - so by collecting the De Agostini ones, you are saving money and getting some decent movies to watch.



Note: I'm not a salesman for De Agostini - just a movie buff who knows a bargain when he sees one. :-)

No we didn't because it hasn't run yet.

All these films are openly available at £5.99 across the UK. Lawrence of Arabia isn't, but it'd be cheaper to buy this than subscribe to a schedule of decidely dodgy films. Where's the Apocalypse Now? Catch 22? Waterloo or Zulu? Patwork fifty-eight for subscribers only perhaps?

Bollocks.

Bollocks. cheers,

The advert has been on TV for over a week now.

HMV :- Das Boot - £12.99 Hamburger Hill - £12.99

Twit, cheers.
