I'm shocked at the poor quality of this first year release . There are alternate sources of this and other poor quality dvds out there not to mention offshore bootlegs which I have never bought nor would I suggest doing so! I think one solution would be to either wait for the reviews to come out or to rent from NETFLIX before spending that hard earned cash. The studios must know that they are throwing us merd and it is nobody elses fault but their's. They shouldn't be able to hold us hostage with vhs quality dvds simply because they know we want them so badly . Maybe it has something to do with hoping we'll re-buy in HD. I ,for one, won't be buying any more sets until I see what they look like. Do they think we're idiots? ARRGHHH!
