Just stumbled across this INCREDIBLE release from back in 1995, called "The Executor Box Set". Is there anybody out there who has this package? This is some amazing stuff with about 5 hours of "making of" material, complete scripts for all three movies, the THX mastered widescreen laserdisc transfers on VHS and all sorts of collectors goodies (and I particulary like the packaging artwork, really minimal and cool). Now I hope someone out there is transferring this stuff to DVD cause this has to be preserved and enjoyed forever. Nothing beats those original "making of" documentaries, there we get the real truth and all that hard award winning work that went into those classic moves before the time of CGI. If you have any more info on this set that is greatly appreciated, cheers!
Btw this monster of a set is going for close to 30 pounds (not much IMO) on ebay at the moment. I wouldn´t mind getting my grubs on one of these at all! ;-)
peace,
