It would be nice if they’ll use some widescreen versions available (like It Can Be Done, Amigo and Fistful of Lead), instead of the pan & scan ones they released before. But I doubt it. Will probably be buying it anyway as it carries multiple films still missing from my collection.
On another note, I’m pretty happy with The Best of Spaghetti Westerns: In the Tradition of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly from Timeless Media Group. A good buy!
I think this is probably the greatest boxed set in SW history. Although I don’t have it. Hows the quality of the films? (Ringos, steffens, Cain, Cemetery). I wonder what the original sources are.
I’ll have to check but I’ve watched (or tried to watch) most of the movies in the set. Some are quite good, some are ok and some are awful. Both sound and picture. Imo its worth picking up just for Cemetery Without Crosses and Forgotten Pistolero which both look decent.
Also just picked up the Best of Spaghetti Westerns at Fry’s Electronics for $12.99 great deal. Here is a review and breakdown of the set that I found online that was very helpful!
I’m considering getting The Best of Spaghetti Westerns - In the Tradition of The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, but after getting Mill Creek’s 44 movie boxset and finding a few were cut, which one’s here are cut (if any)?
This one just came out and it looks like each movie has its own very nice cover art, but I’m not sure. Don’t know anything about the quality but its really nice looking for a budget box.
Blimey! 3 of those I ain’t got. But it’s BGWest, Sundance, and Life is Tough. I can’t say any of these have been on my wants list, but at this price… maybe?
Let us know what you think Yod, if you get around to checking it out - ?
I’m intrigued to see what will be included on the upcoming “Ten Thousand MORE Ways To Die” set from Mill Creek. Apart from the SWBD info all there is to go on is “Actors: Gordon Mitchell, Chuck Connors, George Hilton, William Shatner” from the amazon website. I picked up the first set as there were a few movies I hadn’t seen, usual low quality but usual low price to match.
