I got the set!!!      I gave in and payed the $85 at HMV Mid City (in Sydney). They always put things on the shelf a day early. But I fianally have it Yahoooooooooooo!!!
I haven't even put any of the discs in yet...I can't wait. 

[Reply #43 on:]

YAY!!! 
I, too, am the proud new owner of the Futurama Season One DVD set. From Kmart - $69.95, plus Staff discount  Can't wait to crack it open

[Reply #44 on:]

Is it coming out on video too?

[Reply #45 on:]

If they are releasing the DVDs, it'll be on video.
If you have any form of DVD playing equipment, or are planning on getting it, i'd get the DVD set.

[Reply #46 on:]

I'd recommend the DVD's as well. With the VHS you only get the episodes and a the deleted scenes (I think).

With the DVD's you get so much more: audio commentaries, animatics for SP3K, original script for SP3K (complete with Cohen commentary), art, Groening speaking about the show, Easter eggs, etc. etc.

got DVD's from JB's in Brisbane for $69.74 probably the best price in town, hmv suck shit big time! they sell everything for more than everyone else, why anyone wouldn't shop around is beyond me. 

[Reply #48 on:]

Today I just got it on video from Myer. Can you tell me some of the deleted scenes so I know if VHS has it. Anyway I have watched Space pilot 3000 and My 3 suns so far. Exacly like watching it on T.V exxelent picture having a busy night it's 8:22 seya gotta go.   

[Reply #49 on:]

I shop at HMV because
a) They shelve everything at least a day before everyone else, and
b) They've got alot more stock than most other stores (as in, they have alot of titles that I'm looking for, that most other stores haven't even heard of).
Granted, they are generally more expensive than most stores, but I am willing to pay their asking price, seeing as though they have provided so much in the past. By the way, I don't work for them.
I've watched all of the episodes, and most of the extras, what I'd like to know is where is the easter egg(s)??? Is the Buff-bot the Human Slayer poster on disc 3 one of them? Because I haven't found any of them yet...Probably because I haven't already looked.

I forgot to say this in my last post but the liers at K-mart told me it wasn't out on video yet at any stores then I checked faithfull Myer and they had it.
Does anyone know when season 2 is coming out here still haven't finished watching season 1 yet but as soon as a bought I thourght now I have to buy season 2 so whens it coming out?

What's wrong with ausies!!!!!

 

[Reply #56 on:]

They suck.

[Reply #57 on:]

Don't insult Australia we hardly sound like you think we do. Oh and by the way I'm Greek.

[Reply #58 on:]

Ben's an Aussie dumbass.

[Reply #59 on:]

Clampy's a dumbass Aussie.

[Reply #60 on:]

Oh my yes, we do have Kmart! But not Walmart. As least not in the state of Victoria.
The good people at Michael DVD have slated a Region 4 Futurama Season Two DVD release for 1 May 2003 (tentative). Visit http://www.michaeldvd.com.au/Search/TitleSearch.asp?title=futurama

P.S. The only think wrong with Ausies, Clampybot is the spelling. It's Aussies. And the Ss are not like the Ss in snakes, but more like Zs (Ozzies?!). Hope this helps.

[Reply #61 on:]

Ahem Greek not ausie I may live here but that doesn't make me an ausie!!! I was born in greece sweet countrey exept T.V there sucks crappy shows and all the good shows have captions in greek. And don't insult aussies thre's a lot of idoits out there and I'm not one of them. You think we have a gay axent but we don't sound like you make us sound like. I am now finished oh yeah and don't forget to wach Futurama tonight.
Plus I don't care about the spelling I only use it in these message boards because I can't be stuffed spelling right   

[Reply #62 on:]

Struth!

[Reply #63 on:]

Wow clampybot, you really can't spell. If you live in Australia but aren't Australian, that makes you an illegal immigrant...I'm tipping the feds off...You're going down! 

[Reply #64 on:]

I feel dumber for having read that last post.

[Reply #66 on:]

Dont wait til may for your Season2 Box set- I am from Australia and I ave seasons1 & 2 from the UK and they work perfectly in my region4 player.
You'll get them 4days later from the UK (not even priority post!). Best internet purchase I ever made- even if it was the first 

[Reply #67 on:]

Grim, sounds great but how much did they set you back? As a student $$ is something I have not a lot of. The UK Import Season One DVD set was allegedly double the price as compared to the Aussie set. Cheers

[Reply #68 on:]

Hmmm May I can't believe I got Season 1 on video and I just got a dvd player yesterday!!

[Reply #69 on:]

The Season2 DVD import from the UK is really cheap. They remove the 17% VAT for foreigners which covers the shipping costs to Australia I think. So you basically get them for the same money as all the Brits do.

[Reply #70 on:]

unless ou bought a crappy $199 dvd player they are most likely multi regional.

[Reply #71 on:]

May 1st! Oh man, that sucks, time to gets a credit card i think.

[Reply #72 on:]

It only leeches your money if you don't pay your balance off each month.

[Reply #77 on:]

damn you tweek anyway in case you missed it, how many ppl here from brissie, go on SOUND OFF. And i doubt they wil release t on video, they are trying to phase out videos.

[Reply #78 on:]

Grim, how much did you pay?

[Reply #79 on:]

i found six hidden movie posters and the naked farnsworth picture (heh); are those all of the "easter eggs"? or are there more that i missed?
