Great compilation

If you really enjoy movies and even collect them, you will appreciate this set of 30 years of history on movies, very entertaining, keeps you watching for several hours.


dissapointing purchase

I too was very dissapointed, i went into blockbuster video to see if i could find extra dvds for the dvd video game scene it, and ended up buying an academy award collection, to relive some of the reactions to stars winning their oscars and some acceptance speeces, and all i got was a recap of who won each year, i already have the oscar books, it almost seemed like they were not allowed to show the acceptance speeces, they talked about michael moore's controversial acceptance speech, but never showed a clip, the only clip they showed was very little about the man who ran across the oscar stage naked one year, adn showed very little of that was well, not that i really wanted to see it, very dissapointing, i wanted to see speeches, and stars sitting in their seats, and i got very little. They really need to come out with something better for academy award fans, they have a video cassette with stuff from the ceremony up till 1991, but nothing after that.
