I'm a filmmaker, so this seemed like the perfect gift for me to get for the un-buyable geek dad. Though, I'll admit, my dad was rarely surprised by the myths busted and figured them out before the answer was revealed (*sigh* engineers...). Despite that, he seemed to enjoy the special. I'm glad I purchased this Mythbusters for my dad.

My kids LOVE Mythbusters. They are 8 & 12 year old girls who love the way the Mythbusters explain science as if it's part of the fun - which it is! They love knowing the "secrets" behind the movie magic. And the best part is that the it's "family viewing" that entertains the grown-ups, too.

To be honest I purchased this item as a gift for my uncle who's a movie buff but at the same time is a very smart man and can tell the difference when something can actually happen and when it's just special effects.
He's told me he's very pleased with the dvd. I being a fan of the show knew he'd like it.

Mythbusters Mega Movie Myths is great TV. The Mythbusters team is absolutely entertaining and informative. They approach science in a fun and inquisitive way like science should be approached. Without creativity and a sense of humor, we would know far less about our planet and our universe. The only thing that could make this DVD more fun is if it was widescreen.

This was an excellent DVD. Many popular movie stunts are debunked and demystified. It's appropriate, as Jamie and Adam have experience with F/X in the movies. I also purchased this on Feb.17, 2007 from Wal-Mart. For some reason they have it out on the shelves a month early. Must have been a mistake. Oh, well... better enjoy it. It's rare when a store makes a mistake in your favor.

I bought it at Wal Mart. For some reason they already had it out on the shelves. Otherwise this special they did was pretty cool. I wish they had put the other movie related myths as special features on the dvd though.

I purchased the DVD for school / science class usage. I did watch a couple of episodes and felt the programs were okay - I'm just not all that into science, though I know the students will love them.
