Planet Earth - The Complete Collection 4-Disc Set Blu-ray Disc

Must buy for HD DVD owners or nature lovers

Strengths: Absolutely stunning scenery. Excellent breadth of topics. An epic nature collection

Weakness: Locales can jump around a bit. So so depth of topics

Anyone who has seen this series on Discovery knows what they are getting: one of the most dramatic and beautiful nature programs available. The camera work and scenery are just amazing, and are often jaw dropping. There are about 10 hours of video on this collection, and the variation of topics is excellent. Organization is as good as can be for a series like this, but the locations often jump...

Nothing as enormoursly talented as Planet Earth...

Strengths: Quality, Quantity and Price

Weakness: Missing Behind the scenes and The future.

Above that Sir David Attenborough's voice adds up. Unfortunately, the Blu-ray does not have the Future and behind the scenes (only available on DVD set).

Planet Earth Blu-Ray

Strengths: Fantastic HD video and surround sound. Great commentary. Spans all corners of the Earth - high/low, north/south, etc.

Weakness: Makes you wish you had a higher-end system to show it off.

This box set is a must-have if you have a Blu-Ray player and want to show off your High-Definition system. It has breath-taking scenes and such vivid colors, you wonder how they filmed everything. It has great surround sound, and excellent narration. The price (online anyway) is pretty good too considering you're getting 4 Blu-Ray discs. This box set will not disappoint you!

Planet Earth - The Complete Collection (2007).

Strengths: Great in HD

Weakness: None

Beautiful and informative series. I bought this for my 20 yr. old son for Christmas and he loved it. The whole family has watched many of the episodes and we all enjoy it - it is fantastic on an HD TV and it gets everyone talking about the environment and other worthwhile topics.

Greatest nature series of all time

Strengths: High quality video (especially HD DVD and Blu Ray versions), David Attenborough narrates the series, BBC series, takes you all over the world, cinematography is outstanding!

Weakness: BluRay and HD DVD versions eliminate extras available in the DVD version (future of planet earth and planet earth diaries).

This is one of the best purchases made in years. Those that have high definition media players will want to pick this up to show off the full capabilities of this show. I love each episode. Highly recommended.
