The Simpsons: The Complete Eleventh Season DVD Boxset

**Jye** · 08-02-2008, 03:11 AM

Those individual DVD's were a complete rip off anyway. When they were first released they were around $25, when for a few extra dollars you could get a whole Season.

I never bought any of the single disc releases, based on the knowledge that they'd all be completely redundant at some point down the line. The only reason they existed was so FOX could lasso more profits from impatient people.

I'd rather just wait for the complte season releases.

**TheSuperiorGerbil** · 08-02-2008, 11:02 AM

I'll get mad when technology allows them to re-release seasons in a single disc.

**Charlie** · 08-02-2008, 11:06 AM

That will never happen with DVD.

What you're thinking of is called 'bluray', my friend. [/sarcasm]

**WBadger** · 08-02-2008, 11:53 AM

One disc? For a season? That would be quite dissapointing.

How? We're talking about larger capacity discs, it would have all 22 or however many there episodes; with commentaries and special features it'd probably be spread over two discs.

I meant if they did that after they released every season. Since it would be much more convienient. Instead of 80 discs there'd be 20.

**violent jase** · 08-02-2008, 03:13 PM

I dunno if they'll ever do it, even though they technically can as "1 disc box set" doesn't sound as good as "4 disc box set" even if they have the exact same features

**sconer** · 08-02-2008, 04:23 PM

So they could compromise and make it a 2 disc box set. But having everything on one disc does take away from the art and some of the theme, but it is much more convenient.

**violent jase** · 08-02-2008, 04:40 PM

I agree, it would definitely be more convenient and I would prefer it that way. I just don't think they'll ever do that. Even with 2 discs some people would be like "omfg it must be only half as good". Some people are really stupid.

**WBadger** · 08-02-2008, 05:16 PM

They would have to do that after they released every season how they are currently doing it. That way its more of a collection.

**Otis P Jivefunk** · 08-03-2008, 06:00 AM

It would be nice if they release seasons on one disc. The only downside would be having a menu with 22 episodes and having to scroll down them to get to the episode you want...

**Deck the Pauls** · 08-03-2008, 07:24 AM

Menu navigating is incredibly fast on Blu-ray though so that should be no problem; it could also be divided into sub-menus to represent "discs".

There might be the occasional moron who would think that way, but I don't think that would make people say this sucks and having 4 discs would be better.

**Fox Executive** · 08-03-2008, 01:14 PM

I love the menu-animation and the connections to the storys on the disc. Would be a bit disappointing with only 1 disc...

**dapper dan** · 08-03-2008, 02:38 PM

^yeah I agree, it minimises the opportunity for artwork. Sometimes more is actually more.

Gee, what a problem.

thanks, but we know already

**Charlie** · 08-03-2008, 08:55 PM

If only people weren't too lazy to even go one page back in the thread...

**Bob Snooters** · 08-04-2008, 11:24 AM

I'm still hoping that's not the standard boxart. I mean the Krusty head is probably what I'll be getting but still that Homer 11 thing is absolute crap.

**WBadger** · 08-04-2008, 11:56 AM

im hoping the same thing..

Its not the best, but we'll get used to it. I'd like to see it up close and in person though to give it a closer look.

Agreed. After them doing so much to keep the first 10 seasons looking similar, they've just completely screwed us over.

Having said that, I'm getting the Krusty head, so I'm not that bothered. I just like seeing "The Complete _______ Season" on the front of each box.

**Capt Hammer** · 08-04-2008, 10:03 PM

so has fox or whoever said that the homer 11 box is for real?

**Adam** · 08-04-2008, 11:58 PM

nobody has said it is real. i do not think it is a fake. i think what we're going to see is a jumbled mess of packaging, with the homer one being exclusive to region 4.

here's the region 2 art, thanks to www.simpsonspark.com

**Capt Hammer** · 08-04-2008, 11:59 PM

OH THATS AWESOME I WANT THAT and its even got mr teeny on the side

**Greased Scotsman** · 08-05-2008, 12:15 AM

Boo, I want Mel and Bob on the side.

**Mr Johannson** · 08-05-2008, 12:20 AM

Who is the other person on the spine? It kinda looks like Hans Moleman in some sort of hat.
