DO NOT BUY THIS!, September 15, 2004
This review is from: National Geographic: The Ultimate DVD Collection (DVD)
This set sucks. When I bought it, I thought I was getting all the NG shows on 7 disks.
Just like the TIME LIFE: WORLD AT WAR collection. That is a box set with 5 disks
and 6 titles on each disk. THIS is their pick of what THEY think is great.
The Ultimate National Geographic DVD Collection contains:
7 disks:
1) 30 Years Of National Geographic
2) Nature's Fury
3) Secrets Of The Titanic
4) Surviving Everest
5) The Battle For Midway
6) The Photographers
7) Tigers Of The Snow
So you pay $150 for 7 disks (that's $21/ per disk) and you don't get to choose which ones.
You are better off buying them separately, and picking the ones you like.
Ultimate it is NOT.

National Geographic Deserves More Credit, May 7, 2003
This review is from: National Geographic: The Ultimate DVD Collection (DVD)
National Geographic is the best company for geography lovers like myself. National Geographic takes us in life-risking settings in real places all around the four corners of our world. A lot of children and adults still don't even know that there is a National Geographic. And to see that only one person reveiwed this exellent set of spellbounding places frightens me. People should take National Geographic more seriously and start respecting the people who make these features. For this collection, the camera angles inside the films are exellent. The cameramen and photographers are obviously professionals. If you want your child to start liking geography or learn something while watching television at the same time this is just for you. If you child dosn't like experiencing it by watching the movies they can learn by playing fun and educational games and quizes as special features. This is a must have collection. It is quite expensive, but it is worth the money.

Great for a Nat. Geo. ..., June 12, 2001

This review is from: National Geographic: The Ultimate DVD Collection (DVD)
This is all the Nitional Geographic DVD's in one box. If you plan to get them all or want to give as a gift it's great. A little ... but still a good value.
