 WS DVD s/b PPD December 11, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I really hoped MLB & A&E had learned from the 2004 experience that fans want the complete set of games, including the ALDS games. Instead, they give us a more incomplete product! This set does not include games 1 through 4 of the ALDS. We miss out on the first game - a Beckett gem. And the excitement of games 2 - 4, when Cleveland proved they were true contenders!
And while the 2004 set lacked the 3 ALDS games against the Angels, at least it was produced in HD. This World Series set was rushed to market, so much so that it is not in HD or widescreen, which are practically automatic on all DVDs today.
So while I appreciate MLB's effort to get a product out in time for the holidays, I truly wish they had postponed the offer until such time the entire postseason series of games could be made available in 1 set - with all the viewing perks!
 I'm NOT !!! buying it now !!! December 11, 2007

I was just about to buy this set, but after reading some of the reviews and found out.....NO COMPLETE ALCS... then forget it because i have the the 2004 set and was not happy that it was missing the 3 playoff games vs. the angels (i would have been happy to of paid xtra for) but at least it had the complete acls vs. the yankees and the 2007 seven game series vs. the indians was just as great...damn!!!...damn!!!...damn!!!
I would have rather had the first 4 games of the 2007 series vs. indians, than the first 3 games of the 2004 series vs. the yankees !!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope they put out two new sets, this 2007 one with all the games... including the angels series and the angels series from 2004 !!!!!!
I'll wait a while for a better release of this product, or I'll just not buy it at all. December 7, 2007

I first saw this World Series on TV and was amazed at the overall outcome of the whole thing (and this is coming from someone who doesn't consider herself a die-hard Red Sox fan!). Although I'm a Yankees fan, I had plans to buy this DVD set for reasons I won't disclose to anybody.
Unfortunately, it seems apparent once again that MLB and A&E haven't done their job properly. That is, they don't bundle the entire respective LCS with the actual World Series itself. They did that with almost every World Series DVD of this type. This DVD release doesn't even include the first four games of the 2007 ALCS, which is a big letdown for you fellow BoSox fans and prospective buyers. I particularly liked Josh Beckett's performance in Game 1, in which he struck out 9, and there's no sign of it on here.
Hey, I know A&E Video was releasing this in an attempt to make it a 'Christmas Pick' or something like that, but it would have been better to wait a while and gather all the resources, so to speak.
I guess I'll just have to wait and see if this DVD set gets an expanded re-release in the future, which I very much doubt they ever will.
To any of you at MLB or A&E Video: If you're reading this, you probably want to consider posting a vote on your site that allows us to choose what WE want to see on the next World Series Collector's Edition DVD. 'What would you like to see on fill-in-the-blank World Series DVD?'
Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, but if I were a Major League Umpire, I'd call both MLB *AND* A&E out for failing to hit even a single with treatment of this DVD set - forget solo, 2-run, and 3-run home runs or even grand slams.
Wait a while... December 4, 2007

...because if you recall, the FULL 2004 WS set came out AFTER the ring ceremony, which took place at Fenway Park in April 2005. The ring ceremony was on that set.
I bet that MLB puts out a more complete set after the ring ceremony in 2008. They seem to be putting this one out now, quickly, to sell DVDs before Christmas. Be patient, hold off, and perhaps we'll see a superior set later on.
So I'll be holding off in the hope of seeing this. I waited long enough to see the Sox win the WS the first time in 2004...I can wait for a better 2007 WS box set!

A called third strike for MLB on their "The Boston Red Sox 2007 World Series Collector's Edition." Note that the presentation is in standard sound and square screen video format. I'll have to make due with my memories of FOX's dolby digital high-def original broadcast.
