Summary: Get real, there are only 2 Godfather Movies
Review: I have a tape of the cronological blend of 1 and 2, film does not get any better. I wouldn't walk across the street to get 3 for free, it was and is something that should have never been released. I can understand about wanting the flash backs in 1 and 2 but the blend is in a class by it's self, no other movie/s made is in the same league, too bad the ego is in the way and he will not put the best out. Hopefully someone will make it in spite of him and I will buy it as my tape has seen better days. For those of you that have not seen the blend of 1 and 2 I feel sorry for you deeply deeply sorry, you know not what you are missing and this box set is just a box compared to the blend.

Summary: Don't buy it, maybe we can get a fair price
Review: I've wanted the Godfather DVD ever since I bought my player. One and Two are among my favorite movies of all time. But Coppola made a lousy movie with Three and now he wants us to pay for it. I mean its a shame his kid can't act worth a dime (have you seen her in anything before or since?) but why pick our pockets for it. So that leaves us paying at least 75 bucks for 2 (albeit great) movies. Please, we've all waited this long, wait a little longer and they'll have no choice but to split them up and we can all buy the movies we want rather than having an aweful movie cramed into our collections.

Summary: Keep your friends close, but your enimies closer !
Review: What can I say, simply the best movie(s) I have ever seen ! The script writing, acting and casting are all superb. Anyone who does not purchase this set is not a film historian. Thank you paramount for finally releasing on DVD. Remember, who ever comes to you with this Bazinni offer is the traitor !

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Does this Godfather Collection compare to the LaserDisk ver?
Review: I am proud to say that I own the LaserDisk version of the triology - The Godfather. I'm not as happy to say that I'm a LaserDisk owner. Otherwise, The greatest achievement LaserDisk has is that the Godfather Triology is put together in sequential order. Where the flashbacks are all in chronological order in the triology. You are watching 1 movie instead of 3. It's AWESOME!

Therefore, Will this "The Godfather DVD Collection" have this same feature?

Thanks, adonato3@acorn-group.net
