WATCH - James Bond Ultimate Editions 1 – 4

James Bond Ultimate Editions 1 – 4 [MGM - $89.98 each]


With the latest installment in the series just hitting theaters, the legendary cool of secret agent James Bond shows no signs of dissipating anytime soon. No other cultural icon has stood the test of time –- and numerous commercial and casting considerations –- better than Britain’s infamous 007. Through numerous changes in political and cinematic ideals, the big budget action stance of the series remains as strong as ever. While fans may be flummoxed over the non-sequential order of the movies in each set (all decades and dimensions of Bond are featured in each collection of five films), the pristine prints, coupled with a wealth of added content should satisfy even the most discriminating devotee. This is indeed the ultimate way to view the entire Bond canon.  [Vol. 1 (The Man with the Golden Gun / Goldfinger / The World Is Not Enough / Diamonds Are Forever / The Living Daylights) / Vol. 2 (A View to a Kill / Thunderball / Die Another Day / The Spy Who Loved Me / License to Kill) / Vol. 3 (Goldeneye / Live and Let Die / For Your Eyes Only / From Russia With Love / On Her Majesty’s Secret Service) / Vol. 4 (Dr. No / You Only Live Twice / Octopussy / Tomorrow Never Dies / Moonraker)]
