After nearly three years of anticipation, Warner Home Video has finally announced an August 17th street date for The Scorsese Collection, a six-disc collection of five of the American auteur's greatest works...
READ THE REST (http://www.dvdfile.com/software/dvd-video/archive/2004/05_09.html).
Ah, 'tis exciting to be sure. While some people might complain that it's not a definitive collection of his best [or best known] work, for me that's the most exciting part. I'm just as excited about being able to own Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore and Who's That Knocking as I am about the Mean Streets and GoodFellas special editions.
And After Hours, too, my God! It's about time.

$59.95... ain't a bad deal at all. I'll be getting this one some time.
I like the sound of this. I've still not seentwo of them, but the Goodfellas extras will be really good, that's what the first dvd missed.
This is some the best news I have had all day, wait.... day??? Year!! Lately I have been lamenting the fact that I couldn't own Goodfellas because I refuse to get a two-sided, janky DVD. I have also never seen After Hours, as it is not available on DVD, and the VCR is KO'ed. I must pre-order!

This is great! I can't wait to get my hands on that. I was wondering when they'd do a decent GoodFellas DVD. And I finally get to watch After Hours, which I've been waiting to see for ages.
I can't wait to add these to my collection. http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/natur/nature-smiley-014.gif

I told myself that I've been spending too much on DVD's lately, so I was going to stop for a while. But then I heard about this set, and I couldn't stop myself. I'm now waiting for it to get delivered to my house. This set is money. 5 top notch movies, from IMO the greatest living director, for under $50. It's like god just smiled down on me and said, "BUY THIS SET, I COMMMAND YOU."

It also depends where you are located. One of the places they ship from is out of Baltimore so I just get the super saver shipping, and always get my packages the next day.

I bought this last week, all films brilliant. I was surprised at how much I loved After Hours, its one of my favorite films now.

Finally, The Scorsese Collection gets it's Region 2 release on Monday. I should be excited, but I just found out that Mean Streets is not included. It won't even get released on it's own. So now I have to order the set from Region 1.
But I have a question, how many discs are there? I know there are 5 films, but are the Goodfellas extras on another disc like they are in the R2 release.

Yes, the GoodFellas SE is a two-disc edition. All the others are single discs.
