Buck Rogers DVD, disapointing?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #60 of 133 |
What kind of problem have you had with disc 1 side B?  Mine works fine.  It is fair to say that the DVD is disapointing considering the effort they have put into other TV sets (especially Battlestar Galactica).  The interesting thing is that BG did not do as well as Buck Rogers back in the late 1970s.  I suppose the reason they put effort into BG was because of the new mini-series which debuted around the same time as the DVD was sold.
 
I also seem to remember reading that Universal planned a more lavish release, but there were problems with Gil Gerard and Erin Gray's agents asking for too much money (they have the same agent).

universal was REALLY cheap on the Buck Rogers box set. I mean think
about it:

- No commentaries

- No extras

- Side B of Disk 1 barely  works if at all (I know I'm not the only
person with this problem since I've talked to about 5 various people
with it as well).

All I have to say is that if they can put so much darn work into the
Battlestar Galactica box set & the Knight Rider one, then why not the
same for the Buck Rogers one? It's just another perfect example of the
lack of care Universal has for their Buck Rogers property.

Those duplication farms run hundreds of discs through the machines at a time. One or two passes could have thousands of side b's ruined and not effect any...
