DC Universe 10th Anniversary collection (BD)

If you've been a religious fan of these, for the most part, wonderful pieces of cinema since they launched in 2007, and you've got the cash, this set is a nice treat. The art work featured in the 'Blu-Ray set book' is gorgeous and the collector coins are cool. If Adult Coloring Books are your thing, you may find the 40 page 'DC Animated Universe' book a blast. Of the new special features, the inclusion of the 'Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles' is a high point, and the two San Diego Comic Con DC Animated Universe Panels are enlightening and to be cherished: 2017's 'DC Universe 10th Anniversary Panel' and '2008's 'DC Universe Animation Panel Featuring Wonder Woman.'Perhaps the set's greatest offering, albeit an expensive splurge given its price, is sitting down and re-watch these great films all over again. The luckiest fans will be those who have seen only a few of these titles, or those who perhaps have yet to experience a 'DC Universe Original Movie.' Many comic book movie fans have realized over the last 10 years that a majority of these films hold their own against both Marvel and DC's live action cinematic efforts.Looking at 'Batman: Under the Red Hood,' 'Batman: Year One,' 'Wonder Woman,' 'Green Lantern: Emerald Knights,' 'Batman:The Dark Knight Returns,' 'Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox' and 'Superman VS The Elite' again, one realizes their screenplays, direction, acting, music, sound effects editing and mixing, action, drama and humor deliver what the studios attempt to bring into theaters with their blockbusters year-round these days. DC Animation does, for the most part, character study blockbuster movies with budgets that are a SMALL fraction of studio live action Blockbuster budgets, in HALF the running time, delivering motion pictures that, in many cases, look and feel like they belong up on the big screen, no matter how large your TV or monitor is. If you have yet to experience one on the big screen at Comic Con or a Fandango Event, do yourself a favor. It's a blast. Best of all, as this gorgeous set attests to, DC Universe Original Movies are highly addictive and re-watchable. Enjoy!

Do I regret buying this no, should I have waited yes. But in saying that, I really do love this collection. The outer box did come messed up and I did tape the corners up so it wouldn’t fall apart but I look at what comes in the box. Which is a decade’s worth of DC Movies, it’s also a limited edition numbered version which I didn’t think I would get. For the dvd book for that lack of a better term, it has cool art work printed on the dvd sleeves. As for removing the dvds it take some wiggling and you do have touch the back of the dvd but it’ll not impossible to get them out and you can clean the dvd by wiping them off on a T-shirt. The booklet is cool in the fact that its a coloring book of all of the dvds individual cover art. I would definitely recommend this to a DC Fan

Absolutely incredible set of the first 10 years of DC Animated Universe movies. I already had most of these movies but I was very happy to get the remainder as well as Blu-ray copies of a couple that I had on DVD.Overall, the quality of the set was superb. There are some excellent movies included as well as some that I did not enjoy as much. The movies and extras are in sturdy cardboard case which looks very nice. The movies are stored inside thick cardboard pages so the collection opens like a book. That is one of two things I did not like about the set but the movies are well secured inside. The other thing I did not like was that the collection does not fit in my DVD shelves. That isn't a big deal and is just a cosmetic concern. The box is quite nice and does look good sitting atop my shelf.

Im super happy with this DC 10th Anniversary Collection set.I love the amazing, beautiful artwork it's filled with!!!Being able to knock off 31 animated movies at once that I need to go towards having every animated DC movie is just a bonus.I read previous reviews by others stating their set was damged or tore when it arrived but I didn't have this happen to me. It was shipped nicley and looked great!My only complaint would be how tight the disc fit in the sleeves. With as much as I watch these movies, I didn't want to risk damaging any of the discs takin them in and out of the tight sleeve slot that I just bought a 32 disc cd case to keep them in along with the special features disc.

DC's animated movies are awesome and have been for a long time. Whether you have seen them all, only caught a couple or have not seen any but are a DC fan...they are all worth a watch. It amazes me how good the quality of these can be in contrast to their recent live action attempts (I still have trauma from watching Batman v Superman).Other than the great movies that come with this, you get some collectible stuff which I personally dont care about. The books art work is a nice touch but its pages are cardboard sleeves that the discs slot into. I honestly would have preferred a traditional plastic clam shell set/case to better protect the movies.However, by far the worst aspect of this set is that it comes with no digital codes. So if anything happens to your discs, you are out of luck. Sure for $2 a disc you might be able to use something like vudu's disc to digital...but honestly you shouldnt have to (especially at this price).I got this on sale at ~$99, at which point I would say its worth it purely for the movies themselves and nothing more. At the regular $200+ price I would say you are better off passing on this set if you are not looking at it as a collectors piece. Many of the movies in the collection can be watched on various streaming services (though this could change with DC having their own streaming service now).
