Picked up my S4 dvds at Target today, as sets throughTarget have the bonus disc of the 2008 (pre-S4) LA ComiCon panel.
The extras are really slick, I'll give them that. I kind of miss the rough-cut, slapped together shoestring budget, do it for the love of the thing and the fans that the earlier season dvds had.
But the extras--extremely heavy on theology, and with input by several consultants. What's amazing is they've collected all this amazing classical artwork and used it juxtaposed with series footage to illustrate how SPN is using theology and mythology to tell its story. The extras are beautifully produced and presented, and I'm just gobsmacked at the research done to come up with such glorious and illustrative images.
Oh, and the gag reel is as cute and funny on a 42" screen as it is on YouTube.
Has anyone heard anything about easter eggs on the discs?
Sounds great, Bev! I'm anxiously awaiting delivery from Amazon. Need to clear out my DVR for next week. 8 more days! Woo hoo! :-)
There are some easter eggs in the heaven-purgatory-hell sections.
whitefonted because I don't know if it should be.
Did the boys do any commentary on these? I really missed that in the previous set.
I've been cleaved to by a non-fannish limpet ever since I picked my set up, and only had time to check the extras on disc 6. There may be Jim-Jared-Jensen-Misha commentary on some of the other discs--I haven't had a minute alone without other tasks to take care of to check.
If someone else finds out before I have a chance to check, I'd be happy for a post with that info here.
My set isn't even being mailed 'til the 8th. I ordered back in April.
It's just not FAIR.
It really isn't! What's up with that?
I don't know - one of my friends ordered her's when I ordered mine - but she's got that thing where you pay $70+ bucks and get a year of one day shipping - so she has her's BUT the sets she ordered for her nieces and nephew only last week shipped before the one she ordered in the Spring.
It's a bizarre system.
Mine have shipped, but I used the free shipping option, so I don't have them yet.
I hit Target yesterday. Haven't touched the set since I got it home, but I love knowing it is AT HOME.
