While hardcore Trekkers may not find a lot of new material in Star Trek Collective: Borg, newcomers experiencing 16 action-packed, fan-selected episodes of the Federation's greatest villains may have to prepare to be assimilated. All the episodes have been previously released on DVD, but there are new text commentaries on three of the episodes, and the per-disc price is significantly less expensive than the full-season Trek sets. It's a great entry point for novices, or for budget-minded fans.

The episodes are presented in Stardate order, which means starting with Enterprise, the latest series but also the earliest in chronological order. In "Regeneration," an exploration team finds a pair of apparently dead humanoid-mechanical hybrids that turn out to be members of the Borg, a nearly invincible race whose simple goal is to absorb--"assimilate"--every individual organism it encounters into its collective being. Because the Borg has the ability to adapt itself to resist any threat, resistance is futile. Shift ahead to The Next Generation and a visit by the quirky god Q turns out to have deadly implications when, in a pouty mood, he throws the Enterprise into their first encounter with the Borg. That's followed by the classic two-part cliffhanger (bridging seasons 3 and 4) "The Best of Both Worlds," in which Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) is assimilated into the Borg and a frustrated Commander Riker (Jonathan Frakes) has to make a fateful decision. "I, Borg" attempts to give the Borg a humanized aspect, and the two-parter "Descent" has some interesting developments for Data (Brent Spiner). Skip Deep Space Nine in favor of Voyager, the series in which Captain Janeway's (Kate Mulgrew) ship is stranded far from home in the Delta Quadrant. That happens to be home turf for the Borg, so they had a number of run-ins. The first two-parter (which bridged seasons 3 and 4) is "Scorpion," which introduces the Borg's nemesis, Species 8472. By the time of "Drone," the ship had its first Borg crew member, the sexy Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), but her loyalties are tempted by the Borg Queen (Susanna Thompson) in the double-length "Dark Frontier." In the "Unimatrix Zero" two-parter, which bridged seasons 6 and 7, Seven discovers an idyllic haven for members of the Collective that the Queen is determined to find and destroy. That eventually leads to an ultimate confrontation with the Queen (now played by Alice Krige, repeating her role from Star Trek: First Contact) in the series finale, "Endgame." --David Horiuchi

Product Description

The Borg Fan Collection has the top ten most popular Borg episodes as picked by the fans! Witness all the characters from Star Trek: The Next Generation, Enterprise and Voyager as they defend their ships, galaxies, and their own kind. For thousands of years the Borg have been spreading throughout the galaxy, conquering, assimilating and thus destroying countless civilizations. Following every encounter, the Borg catalogue each new species with a numerical designation instead of a proper name. The goal of the Borg, in most cases, is to completely assimilate each species by incorporating their knowledge and technology into the unified Borg Collective. One by one, each living being is converted into Borg Drones. In many cases, all that remains of an assimilated civilization is the memory of its unique contributions that now resides only within the accumulated knowledge of the Borg. That and the numerical species designation. Often even the name is lost, forgotten or deleted as irrelevant. Conversely, the species designations give a sense of the long and terrible history of the Borg and the thousands of species they have encountered and absorbed.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Purchase For Poor Trek Lovers..........2007-07-02

If you're like me and can't spend hundreds of dollars for each Star Trek series, these recently released mini-sets of themed Star Trek episodes are a great value. Not only do you get full, uncut (length-wise), DVD-quality versions of some of the best Borg episodes, you get a variety of eps from multiple series including Enterprise, The Next Generation AND Voyager.

I recommend this collection to any Trek fan!

5 out of 5 stars Great Star Trek.......2007-05-16

This is a pretty good sample of the Borg on the different Star Trek Shows. I would like to have seen some others included, but it it still a very enjoyable piece of Star Trek entertainment.

5 out of 5 stars This is the best Star Trek Collection!.......2007-05-12

This really is a great collection! You can actually have both parts of 'The Best of Both Worlds' (as well as several other great season cliffhangers) on dvd without buying 2 seasons! It would probably be a good idea for them to make a 'Cliffhangers' collection just for that purpose.

Anyway, if you love to hate the borg, I highly recommend buying this set. I won't bore you with episode details (as they're already listed elsewhere), but suffice it to say, these are really good! Once you have this, you just have to assimilate the movie 'First Contact,' to complete the borg collective.

5 out of 5 stars The Borg rules.......2007-04-09

I'm not a Trekkie (I have a couple of friends who are), and there is nothing wrong being one. The fact is, I'm more of a casual fan. I think the "Star Trek" franchise is not bad, and there are some great intriguing ideas explored in the stories, but I could never get that engaged into most of them. Then I saw the film "Star Trek-First Contact", and I was stunned. The Borg is, without a doubt, the most jacked-up antagonist the Federation ever had to face. I also saw a "Voyager" episode involving the Borg (it's on this collection), and I was hooked. Again, I'm still not a total fan. I don't really plan on getting the other collections, but the Borg is SCARY - in an awesome way. I did enough "research" so I was up to snuff on other storylines so I was able to enjoy this more.

For those who don't know, but if you're reading this you probably already do, the original "Star Trek" is not featured because the writers didn't come up with the Borg idea yet. "Deep Space Nine" is also omitted, but the other three shows are present. The episodes are presented in star date order. I'm not going to go into who or what the Borg is - if you're reading this, you already know. Besides, the less said the better, you have to experience it as it plays out.

I don't know too much about "Enterprise" with Scott Bakula, but it seems to be a real good quality show (except I feel it has one of the worst opening theme songs ever). This episode is great though, and it gives a good explanation about the Borg for the unintiated. Next, there are six "TNG" episodes, two of them are two-parters. "Q Who?" is, I believe, the first show to introduce the Borg. Although the Borg's appearance was not fully realized yet, "Q Who?" (scary & suspenseful) and "I Borg" (touching & endearing) are incredible, the best shows from "TNG". The others are good too, but they had a tendency to paint themselves into a corner, and they went on a tad too long.

Next, there are seven episodes of "Voyager". Two of them, "Scorpion" & "Unimatrix Zero", are two-parters; another one, "Dark Frontier", is a two-hour season finale, and "Endgame" is the two-hour series finale. Even though I felt "Voyager" was inferior to "TNG"; "Scorpion" (which introduced the character Seven of Nine) and "Endgame" (which got the actress who played the Borg Queen in the movie to reprise her role) are absolutely amazing. The other episodes are, of course, good, especially "Drone", but like "TNG" two-parters, they painted themselves into a corner (so to speak) and seemed reeeaaal long. However, "Voyager" really defined the Borg. Now, I'm a casual fan, and I loved this. If you're a Trekkie, you should be ashamed of yourselves if you don't own this. The fans have spoken, and they picked winners. Buy it, NOW!

If you want just one Star Trek DVD set in your collection, Star Trek Fan Collective: Time Travel may be it. Of the 15 time-bending episodes on the affordably priced four-disc set, two are perhaps the most acclaimed in franchise history: the Original Series' "The City on the Edge of Forever" (written by sci-fi giant Harlan Ellison) and Deep Space Nine' s "Trials and Tribble-ations" (in which the DS9 crew is cleverly edited into the original crew's "The Troubles with Tribbles" episode). The other selections are the Original Series' "Tomorrow Is Yesterday"; The Next Generation's "Yesterday's Enterprise," "Cause and Effect," the two-part "Time's Arrow," and the series finale "All Good Things..."; DS9's "Little Green Men"; and Voyager's two-part "Year of Hell" and series finale "Endgame."

One could quibble with the episode selection. Because the Fan Collectives were compiled by vote from fans, Voyager's series finale "Endgame" was included even though it was also on Fan Collective: Borg. It would have been nice to remove that duplicate and substitute the acclaimed DS9 two-parter "Past Tense," which would have been a better representation of that series than "Little Green Men" (in which the Ferengi travel to Roswell) and "Tribble-ations," both of which are deserving selections but considerably lighter in tone than the series as a whole. Also, Enterprise isn't represented at all. The only bonus features are new text commentaries on three episodes by Michael Okuda and Denise Okuda. --David Horiuchi

5 out of 5 stars Star Trek is FUN! Time travel possible?.......2007-06-27

My favorite Star Trek episodes are the Time Travel ones. Kirk is great, Picard is kind of boring. Sisko is meh, Janeway is crabby, Archer is great. This has one of my all time Next Gen favorites "Yesterday's Enterprise". For old Star Trek you can't beat the episode were Kirk and Spock go back to the great depression and Spock makes a tricorder out of old TV parts. They cut out the scene were Kirk and Spock have a hard boiled egg eating contest and Spock pukes. This is much better than buying the complete seasons. Paramount is still selling them for over $100. I wish they would have made a time travel episode were Picard goes back in time and meets Kirk and they get in a fish fight that lasts an hour with the Vulcan fight music in the background. Remember "The Cable Guy"? I am not one of those guys that shows up to work in his captain Kirk starfleet uniform. Ooops, have to go my communicator is beeping. "Scotty, beam me up!"

5 out of 5 stars So, where's Star Trek Fan Collective Time Travel Volume 2?.......2007-01-16

Great set, great set! So, where's the rest of it? Paramount cannot be serious about this can they? They HAD to have had planned a Time Travel 2 when they made this!

Paramount must not be able to hire good help, because it only took me about 20 minutes of research to come up with the episodes for Time Travel 2:

Disc 1:
Star Trek Enterprise - "Carbon Creek"
Star Trek Enterprise - "Carpenter Street"
Star Trek Enterprise - "Storm Front Parts 1 & 2"

Disc 2:
Star Trek The Original Series - "Assignment: Earth"
Star Trek The Original Series - "All Our Yesterdays"
Star Trek The Next Generation - "A Matter Of Time"
Star Trek The Next Generation - "Timescape"

Disc 3:
Star Trek Deep Space Nine - "Past Tense Part 1 & 2"
Star Trek Deep Space Nine - "Things Past"
Star Trek Voyager - "Time And Again"

Disc 4:
Star Trek Voyager - "Future's End Parts 1 & 2"
Star Trek Voyager - "Coda"
Star Trek Voyager - "Timeless"

There Paramount! All the research work is done for you, and for FREE!........now GET BUSY, before I send you a bill for my research!!!! I'm anxiously awaiting with cash in hand y'all! Do this right and finish what you started Paramount!

5 out of 5 stars Time Travel -- The Final Frontier.......2007-01-10

I really enjoy stories and movies dealing with traveling through time (in either direction). Being a really big Star Trek fan, I have seen all these episodes numerous times. But it's nice to have these all in one set. I liked that they included episodes from four of the Star Trek series. My only criticism was the fact they left out some of the episodes I thought they would have included. I suppose they had limitations on the number they could use. Who would have guessed they actually did so many time travel stories over the years.

4 out of 5 stars Great Collection.......2007-01-04

This was a great collection of time travel episodes from several Star Trek series...I even started to like TOS. But I can't help but feel that some choices should have been included like Before and After from the Voyager series...but otherwise, its a great buy.

Volume 3 in the Star Trek Fan Collective series focuses on the show's resident deity, Q, played with indignant mischief by John De Lancie. While previous Fan Collectives have taken votes to select which episodes around a certain theme would be included, Q makes things easy (the character never made things easy) by simply including all 12 episodes (two are double-length) in which he appeared. And because Q was especially fond of tormenting Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) and his crew, most of the episodes are from The Next Generation, including that series' first episode, Encounter at Farpoint. Subsequent episodes are "Hide and Q" in which the crew plays a deadly game; "Q Who," in which a temper tantrum throws the Enterprise into its first-ever encounter with the Borg (also included on the Fan Collective: Borg set); "Deja Q," in which the character becomes a normal human; "Qpid," in which Q tries to play matchmaker by turning Picard into Robin Hood; "True Q" in which Q reveals the truth about a mysterious young woman; "Tapestry," in which Picard shares a near-death experience with the godlike thorn in his side; and the series finale, "All Good Things…" Q also made brief stops in the first season of Deep Space Nine ("Q Less") and in Voyager. In "Death Wish," Q tries to help Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) recover her male crew members after an encounter with another member of the Q Continuum, "The Q and the Grey," in which Q wants Janeway to bear his child; and the final season's "Q2," in which Q's son arrives to cause chaos, such as removing Seven of Nine's (Jeri Ryan) clothes. As with previous Fan Collective sets, the only new features (and in this case there are no other features) are text commentary on three episodes by Michael Okuda and Denise Okuda. --David Horiuchi

5 out of 5 stars The All Omnipotent Q.......2007-06-28

Q has always been my favorite character in Star Trek, not counting the regular cast of the various shows. This collection offers a chance to see him interact with the crew of the Enterprise, the crew of DS9, and also the crew of Voyager. It is also nice to have both the series premier and the series finale of Star Trek: TNG in one collection. I would absolutely recommend this collection to anyone who is at all a fan of the omnipotent, the whimsical, and the often troublesome character, Q.

4 out of 5 stars The Best Character in STNG.......2007-04-10

Joh Delancie was the best actor in all of the STNG/Voyager/DSN universe. Or perhaps it was just that his character, Q, had all the best lines. This collection has all of the episodes that Q appears in. Some episodes are pretty lame (espeically the pilot for STNG), but Q always relieves the tedium when he appears.

4 out of 5 stars one of the best characters in the franchise.......2007-03-25

i love the Q. they should make a full length feature film about this character. if you do not know what Q is then your not a Trek fan and why are you reading this :)

4 out of 5 stars When the Fan Collectives are re-released on HD DVD..........2007-03-12

Within a year from now, I predict ALL of the Fan Collectives WILL be re-mastered on HD-DVD/Blu-Ray format, thus reducing the discs from 4 to 2.

Having all of the Q Episodes AND the Remastered "Squire of Gothos" on Disc 1 and all of the Special Features on disc 2 with new interviews with John De Lancie and Trelane himself, William Campbell. That would make a great addition to your video library. ALL in Widescreen format!

This could be the first of many Fan Collectives re-done for the HD-DVD/Blu-Ray format to help mark TOS' 40th and ST-TNG's 20th Anniversary.

For anyone that is a Star Trek fan, this is a have to own. I can't think of any other Star Trek character that was a "bad guy", but you still loved him all the more, except for Harry Mudd from the Original Series. "Q" simply makes Star Trek a neat experience, and for anyone that likes Q, you will really enjoy these DVD's. It is a collection of every Star Trek from any franchise that has the character of "Q" in it.

Description

Multi-platinum recording artists release their first-ever live DVD. Recorded in April 2005, the shows were filmed in the band's hometown of Atlanta during two special sold-out performances featuring the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra. The 20-song collection spans ninety minutes and encompasses hits from Collective Soul's seven studio albums, including their latest release, "Youth". DVD special features include behind the scenes footage and documentary, and the CD is enhanced with video, never before released music, and more. Recording in an orchestral setting enabled the group to reinterpret their hits. Songs such as "Shine", "December", "The World I Know", and "Precious Declaration" have all been given a new twist.

This is an O.K. concert on dvd, but really the sound quality blows. It was probably a great concert live, but don't expect much with this disk. I would suggest the 7 year itch cd instead.

5 out of 5 stars Collective Soul's Natural evolvement.......2007-05-12

It was only fitting for CS to do a concert like this. Their songs, for the most part, lend themselves to orchestration. Ed Roland is a genius writer and it shows well in this DVD.CS has been around for about 14 years now; an eternity in the music industry these days. Kudos to "The Soul Machine" for making this DVD as comprehensive and fun as it is!

5 out of 5 stars Whew! Nice...............2007-04-20

This thing just is a marvelous piece of work. Period. I'll save the musicology study & superlatives. I was amazed! Pleased.
Having grown up playing in orchaestra's & later in jazz/lab bands, I truly enjoyed the special features with the kids in the Atlanta Youth Symphony. You just know this was the time of thier life! Something they will always look back on with pride and cherish.
Had tastes of that when we won band competitions & music festivals 20 + yrs ago. I know I cherish those memories.
But to be on & in a DVD with a band of the CLASS & Quality of Collective Soul? That was this well done? Shiver!
Something tells me Will Turpin was a "band geek" too, he seemed to work so well with the kids.
Ed Roland.....what's with the blonde
hair? Anyways....
BUY THIS !!!!

I do like the music, and the video quality is decent, but it is far from top notch on both.

There is a noticeable drop in volume when the surround speakers are fed sound. The only other time I have noticed this issue on my own home videos, which I edited in DTS. I am just learning how to mix music, and am learning by trial and error. I don't know how the producers of this disk could be making the same errors as me?

If you are going to be listening to this on a properly configured (digital) surround sound system you will likely be a little bit disappointed in the sound quality.

5 out of 5 stars Simply first class!!.......2007-04-01

Collective Soul in my opinion are one of the most underrated bands around today. Their songs are so well written and the variety of their sound is just amazing. I have been a fan ever since I first heard Shine back in 1994 and since then they have had my attention full-time. I have many favourites, whether it be ballads like the forementioned Shine, Run, Needs etc, or rock anthems like Heavy, Gel and Why Pt.2. Collective Soul: Home brings to reality what I have wondered for a long time.. What some of their songs would sound like accompanied by an orchestra, and after watching this DVD for the first time, I can say that it is just beautiful!! It brings a whole new level of enjoyment and respect to such songs as Youth, Pretty Donna, Compliment (well pretty much all of the songs!). I have seen them live twice here in Auckland new Zealand and I would love to see them again!! I am glad I ordered this DVD, it was well worth it and I can say I will be watching over and over again. If you love Collective Soul, get this DVD!!

5 out of 5 stars I love this DVD.......2007-02-20

I am a soldier that is deployed to the Middle East and I have purchased several different mountain bike movies during the deployment to help me remember what its like to ride and stuff that I would like to learn to do. This movie is one of the best that I have because it reminds me about just going riding with friends and having a good time. I would suggest this to anyone who loves to go for a ride now and then.

5 out of 5 stars It's Unreal...Buy it........2006-07-12

ROAM is the second film by The Collective ([...]) and shot entirely in 16mm film. The riding in the film in unbelievable and shot in premier locations like Whistler, Moab and Morrocco. Lots of great singletrack, downhill, dirt jumping, and a little freestyle action with Ryan Leech.

The filmmakers did a great job piecing the segments together and choosing a soundtrack that flows well with the film. The movie is only 40 minutes, but the extended bonus features make up for it. I like the "shop loop" feature in the bonus section, I just leave the movie on for hours looping over and over.

This is a great movie to watch before your next session, epic ride, or just to leave looping endlessly.

Buy it. Now. You'll love it.

Product Description

Star Trek Fans voted online for their favorite Klingon episodes form the Star Trek television series, which resulted in Star Trek: Fan Collective - Klingon. Get ready for brilliant battles, thrilling adventure and pulse-pounding action when the federation encounters its arch nemesis - the Klingon.

The fourth volume of the Star Trek Fan Collective series tackles the Federation's arch-enemies-turned-sometimes-allies, the Klingons. It begins in chronological order with Enterprise's premiere episode, "Broken Bow." A new starship, Enterprise NX-01, is rushed into service when a Klingon crash-lands on Earth and Starfleet decides to return him to his home world. Then skip to two episodes of the Original Series, "Errand of Mercy" and "The Trouble with Tribbles," which focus on the conflicts between the Federation and the Klingons. But the two factions had begun working together by the time of The Next Generation. In "A Matter of Honor," Riker (Jonathan Frakes) spends some time serving aboard a Klingon ship, and his Enterprise shipmate, Worf (Michael Dorn), delves deep into his Klingon culture along with his brother Kurn (Tony Todd) in "Sins of the Father." Then in the two-part "Redemption," a bridge between the fourth and fifth seasons, the Klingon empire teeters on the brink of civil war. Worf arrived at the space station Deep Space Nine when the Klingons offer to join the Federation in the Dominion war in "The Way of the Warrior." There he remained for "The Sword of Kahless," in which the search for a mythical artifact turns into a very real struggle for power. Last are DS9's humor classic "Trials and Tribble-ations," followed by Voyager's "Barge of the Dead," in which B'Elanna Torres (Roxann Dawson) has visions of the Klingon afterlife.

Of all the fan collectives released so far, Star Trek Fan Collective: Klingon has the largest number of episodes to draw from, so there will inevitably be controversy over which episodes were selected (via fan vote). While the two Tribble episodes are among the franchise's most popular, the Klingons are somewhat tangential characters, and "Trials and Tribble-ations" was previously included on Star Trek Fan Collective: Time Travel. The space might have been better spent on the Original Series' "Day of the Dove" or more TNG and DS9, though that might have turned the set into Star Trek Fan Collective: Worf. --David Horiuchi

4 out of 5 stars Regarding "Barge of the Dead".......2007-02-06

I see plenty of unfortunate hostility toward the inclusion of "Barge of the Dead" on this collection, and I have to vehemently disagree. It has to be the most thoughtful, introspective, and insightful episodes of "Voyager", if not one of the most in the total Star Trek franchise. B'Elanna Torres was an intriguing and dynamic character that received as much attention and development as a show like "Voyager" would ever allow. I empathize with the disappointment toward "Voyager", a series that boasted all sorts of potential and very little follow-through. But ultimately "Barge" was one of that show's few bright spots.

4 out of 5 stars Not the perfect collection.......2007-01-19

The fan collectives are really good star trek materials. But when Klingons are included in it it has lost its meaning in the process. Why because its not possible to please all klingon fans with just 4 discs. There had to be more.

Although they brought the key episodes for Klingons there are many with no meaning at all. We start with the best Klingon episodes from TOS.Then we continue with Enterprise but, come on do you really think that Enterprise's pilot is a klingon episode. Just it has klingons in it (for a couple of minutes, in a 90 minute show), it doesnt mean that it must be included in this collection. I mean i dont complain about enterprise but i dont think that this episode belongs to this collection. Then comes the great TNG episodes. Then we continue with some of the best DS9 episodes. Then again there is Sword of Kahless it's an okey episode but i would rather prefer "You are cordially invited..." to see the marital traditions of the Klingon race. Plus it would be more fun to watch. And there are more DS9 episodes about Klingons that could have been included in this collection.

And finally my last complaint: Voyager's the barge of the death. Horrible, i mean really horrible probably one of the lacking episodes of the great series Voyager. Probably they included this episode to just squeeze in Belonna Torres and Voyager in the collection.

Anyway, as always you get your money's worth with this collection. Plus text commenteries are very detailed and fun to read. I'm giving four stars because i believe there could be better klingon episodes in the collection. But then agian to receive the perfect Klingon collection they had make a 8 or 9 disc set.

If you are a Star Trek fan you shoul get this collection.

2 out of 5 stars I Allowed Paramount to Screw Me.......2006-11-30

1) Some relatively lame Klingon episodes are included in this set. "Barge of the Dead"? Why would anyone include that mediocre episode in a "best of" box set? Given that DS9 was full of exciting, complicated episodes that centered on Klingon characters, why were there only two episodes from that series in the entire collection?

2) I was charged for a 4 disc set, when they could have easily fit all those episodes on 3 discs. Moreover, given that more episodes could have been included on each of the discs, why weren't they? Doubtless Paramount wants to make certain that I keep buying seasons of DS9.


4 out of 5 stars A good collection but...........2006-11-14

I only wish that the set had two more episodes. The first one is "day of the dove" (TOS) with Kang. There were only three major Klingon episodes in TOS. Two of them are on here" (Errand of Mercy" has Kor, "Trouble with Tribbles" has Koloth.) but not the third one which is "day of the dove".
Because Worf was a main character in TNG and later DS9 there are many Klingon episodes in those series. So there is no way to include them all. With TOS however, just the addition of "day of the dove" would make it seem more complete. There, is another reason it could have been included. All three Klingon captains make an appearance in one DS9 episode mentioned below.

The episode "Blood Oath" from DS 9 could have been included. It has Kor, Koloth AND Kang (all three characters played by the orignal actors) in it. In fact, I think it would have been a better episode to include than "the sword of Kahless". (somehow the episode seems redundant to me. perhaps an inclusion of a "b" story would have made it a better episode"

Also, "barge of the dead" seems like a token episode just to include at least one show from "voyager".

But it is a good collection in the sense that it has shows from all the series. I have all of DS9 on DVD. So the ones in the set are repeats for me. (The Q collection, for example, has only one DS9 episode. The rest are TNG and Voyager only...but it is a good collection because it has EVERY Q episode in it. Unless you count the TOS episode "Squire of Gothos"). And even though I do have all of DS9 on DVD, "the way of the warrior" from DS9 gets a text commentary on here, which I enjoy.

To sum it up. I'd give it five stars if it included "day of the dove" TOS and "blood oath" DS9

5 out of 5 stars A Good Collection of Episodes, But Not The Best Collective.......2006-09-13

This is another collection of really good episodes that deal with Klingons. True, there were some episodes missing from this set and could have been included in the fourth disc, but overall the episodes are really great.

The main problem I had with the collection is that they chose the wrong Enterprise episode to put on here. Instead of Broken Bow, they should have had the episode from season four which expalined why the Klingons ridges are missing from the original series. It would have been a great addition, especially for the fans who have never seen that ENT story arch. It would have also been a great lead up to the TOS episodes.

I have all of the collectives; so I would say that out of the four collectives released so far, this would probably be my third favorite. The best collectives are no question the Borg and Q collections. With the Q collective, it is every episode of Trek he was on. And the Borg collective gives a very good history and understanding of the Borg and every episode in that collection deserves to be there. All of the episodes on the Borg collective were the right ones to pick. This ends up at third because the episodes feel more random and doesn't really flow with the storyline as the Borg or Q collective does. Time Travel is a very good collection, but it is definitely random episodes. With that said, this is still worth getting, but only to fans who don't own the DVDS. Like I said before in the other reviews, if you already have the seasons, then you are just paying for the box.

Description

An instant hit at the Sundance Film Festival and nominated for an Independent Spirit Award, THE SAME RIVER TWICE is a rich and warmly insightful mosaic of change, choices and communal living, highly acclaimed as "piercingly poignant" (The New York Times) and "a [four-star] masterpiece! Powerful, compelling and graceful!" (Chicago Reader). In 1978, award-winning filmmaker Robb Moss and a close-knit group of free-spirited friends and lovers took a month-long trip through the depths of the Grand Canyon; a breathtaking, white-water rafting adventure down the Colorado River. Cutting between footage of their youthful--often naked--live-in-the-moment existences and the complex realities of their adulthood today, the film travels the road from peyote to Prozac, creating a compelling portrait of cultural metamorphosis and the struggle to find one's place in the world. From running rapids to running for mayor, THE SAME RIVER TWICE is an intimate depiction of those baby-boomers who took the Sixties seriously, and then grew up. DVD Features: Audio Commentary with Filmmaker Robb Moss; Filmmaker Interview; Filmmaker Q&A; Theatrical Trailer; Filmmaker and Crew Biographies; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection

4 out of 5 stars A Time Machine for 40-Something "Waterdogs"............2007-01-07

If you've ever spent any time on a river -- without a motor -- and were a young adult in the 70's...this film is like somebody opening a window in a stuffy room. The sights, sounds, and abundant nudity will wash over you like a icy jade wave....it's a joy to see brother & sisters of the "Royal Order of the Rocket Box" who went there too, fellow veterans of multi-day raft trips with all the attendant psuedo-philosophizing, coitus, group & individual angst, transactional dynamics and joyful dysfunction.

Juxtaposing the archival footage with the "where are they today?" clips was brilliant filmmaking...kind of like Michael Apted's 48-up, but with better scenery and more dramatic hydraulics!

If you've ever stuffed all your worldly possessions in a drybag, hoisted a 200 quart cooler and suffered 3rd degree Teva tan.....you'll love it!

2 out of 5 stars Naked Narcissists.......2006-08-30

Just about what I had expected, a bunch of self-indulgent fools, playing Adam & Eve, then turning gray having learned nothing. I hoped perhaps one of them might just wise up, break with the hippie orthodoxy, maybe join the Marine Corps, open a gun shop in Kingman, Arizona. Anything! But no. They all grew up to be meddling busy-bodies, imposing their Utopian "think globally/ act locally" claptrap as small town mayors and such. It's significant that the guy they all viewed as their guru, is the most vapid and apparently brain-damaged of the bunch.

Perhaps the most striking thing about the movie is how uniformly unlikable these people were, and are. It is a fitting tribute to the 'Woodstock generation'.

4 out of 5 stars Big Chill on the River.......2006-03-29

This is a good documentary of a group of river guides that contrasts footage of the unavailable movie "River Dogs" with their current lives. Some moved on, some stayed where they were and all split up. It would have been more valuable if the original documentary, River Dogs, had also been included because it would have served as a better bridge to the past (it would have also been nice to see more of the Grand Canyon Trip, a truely awe inspiring place). Having said that Robb Moss does a solid job putting everything together, and avoids any pendantic conclusions, but lets the work speak for itself. Definitely worth viewing, it's not just a movie, it's real life.

4 out of 5 stars really good documentary.......2005-07-17

This is a really good documentary about a group of raft guides that spent this one summer back in the 70's rafting naked through the Grand Canyon. The same guy that filmed that trip revisits with some of those people within the last few years and shows what they are doing now. This is definetely worth watching. My wife watched it three times in two days.

In this easy-going video, members of Collective Soul explain that they'd never played an acoustic set until they made this four-day journey to Morocco for the series Music in High Places, but you'd never know it from the quality of their playing. While the Roland brothers (vocalist Ed and rhythm guitarist Dean) join lead guitarist Ross Childress with their unplugged six-strings, percussionist-bassist Will Turpin and drummer-percussionist Shane Evans play indigenous instruments to form a tight, acoustic rhythm section. The simple premise of the series (sending first-rate musicians on expeditions to ancient landmarks around the world) is surprisingly effective, and the production values are impeccable, without losing focus on the music (like the hit single "December") that Collective Soul is famous for.

Of the dozen songs performed, two are new, five are from Blender, three from Collective Soul, and two from Hints, Allegations, and Things Left Unsaid. While this may disappoint devotees of Dosage, these songs have a cohesive quality that blends well with the band's musical stops in the Sahara desert, a 700-year-old casbah, the market of Marrakech (an outdoor highlight), and elsewhere. Ed Roland's belief that rock & roll should be fun is expressed in the band's overall demeanor: they're talented but not too serious (except, perhaps, when Roland objects to having a monkey on his shoulder). Even on rainy days, the Moroccan landscape is breathtaking, and while the group's spoken observations are mostly innocuous, it's clear that this was a special experience for all involved, and that feeling comes through clearly in this recommended video. --Jeff Shannon

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Acoustic Performance.......2007-04-11

I've been a fan of Collective Soul since 1995 and bought this dvd a few years ago. Such a great look into the band and a chance to hear them play numerous songs live acoustically outside in Morocco. Every band member has speaking/interviewed parts, there is humour and seriousness, and a lot of passion in their music here. If you have ever heard a Collective Soul song before, you should see this. If you have never heard a Collective Soul song before...well that's impossible. You have heard of them you just don't know it.

5 out of 5 stars Cool acoustic live performances.......2007-02-15

The guys sound great, the scenery is terrific, and the interviews are good too! If you're a fan be sure to pick this up. If you're new to Collective Soul snag the "Home" DVD first and then this one.

5 out of 5 stars Leave it to Collective Soul to make a dungeon funny.......2007-01-21

I really enjoyed the guys just 'winging it with accoustic instuments. You can only do that if you're really musical artists. Exotic locales, shy but curious observers, and the Marakesh marketplace are all great. The little kids jamming to "GEL" just busted open language and cultural barriers, it seems like a time when the world wasn't as crazy as it is now. I loved how Shane and Will incorporated local sounds and instruments into their percussion. Leave it to Collective Soul to make a dungeon funny and...to sing in a third world restroom. Whether singing in the desert, in a fortress, in a busy marketplace, in narrow walkways between homes, in the rain under an arch or just talking about their perspectives on life in a beautiful ancient building, this Collective Soul DVD is a good and inexpensive investement in entertainment.

Three Mary-Kate & Ashley "You're Invited" videos hand-picked by fans make up one greatest-hits collection:

Birthday Party
The Olsens put on a big birthday celebration with lots of friends and make the viewer feel invited. Singing, games, presents, cake--it's all here. The focus is once again on the girls as celebrities (and therefore as products, like dolls), and that shtick can be a little wearing when so much of the show is concerned with underscoring their self-conscious cuteness. --Tom Keogh

Sleepover Party
The Olsen twins try their best to pull an all-nighter in this high-spirited, 25-minute slumber party episode. Mary-Kate and Ashley jumpstart the fun by encouraging their three perky guests to learn some new dance moves. Cue the MTV-style musical numbers; these girls just gotta sing! And they have a song for every activity, from playing video games, to making pizza (basically ordering a plain pie, then raiding the fridge for a variety of toppings), to scaring each other--and the boys--with spooky stories and makeup. Cute, tame entertainment for 4- to 7-year-olds who enjoy singing and dancing along. While kids 8 and older are much more likely to hold slumber parties, they might find the material too juvenile (sort of like Barney unmasked). --Liane Thomas

Mall Party
When Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen send you an invite to their Mall Party, maybe you'd better RSVP that you've got other plans. A credit card-thin plot drops the girls at the Mall of America, where they sing and dance their way through a slew of unmemorable but eminently hummable, bubblegum pop songs that live up to such no-frills names as "Meet You at the Mall" and "Food Court." Although this long half-hour is clearly trading on the fame of the TV twins of the past decade, the real star is that Minnesota mall, with its theme park-style rides and unending shopping opportunities. --Valerie J. Nelson

All the songs make you wanna stand up and dance and sing-a-long. If you're a fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley you can't miss this wonderful DVD! :D

5 out of 5 stars I love this video!.......2003-02-21

Mary-Kate and Ashley at their best! The videos contained in this combo
are Mall Party, Birthday Party, and Sleepover Party. Sleepover Party is the first party movie the twins ever made. The songs are cute and classic, like "Video Monster" and "Gimmie Pizza". Birthday Party is cute, too. It has neat songs like "Moon Bounce Madness" and "Pool Party".
Mall Party is recent. The songs featured in this one include "When I Grow Up" and "Decisions, Decisions".

3 out of 5 stars One Time Movie.......2002-01-07

This movie is a money-saver because it combines 3 movies on one tape. In the first movie, the girls have a few friends over for a sleepover party and they dance, giggle and have a pillow fight. True girl form but kinda boring. The second movie takes you along with the girls to Six Flags amusement park for their birthday. You get to watch the thrills and spills while they scream at the top of their lungs. The third movie (and the main reason I bought this) was the highlight for me. You go along with Mary-Kate and Ashley to the Mall of America where they shop, shop, shop, ride bumper cars, ride a roller coaster, and put on a mini fashion show. What child(of any age) could resist the fun of a day at that mall. However, the endless drone of "we're going to the mall" that they sang over and over made a few family members give up on the movie and leave. Yes, I'd buy it again because I like Mary-Kate and Ashley but if you're looking for something to occupy more than a few hrs, this is not the one!!! I don't think you could enjoy it after the first time.

This video is wonderful! It has three on one video which saves a lot of money. It was like I was joining in with their party. This is the first party video I have seen and I am going to buy the others too.

5 out of 5 stars REALLY NICE!.......2001-03-02

I like this video! The best thing is that it's 3 in 1 so you don't need to buy 3 videos to watch all three of them. This video includes Sleepover, Birthday and Mall Party. They're all really nice! Mary-Kate and Ashley were also soooo cuuuuuuutttttteee when they were younger! I totally love them!
