5 star series....3 star DVD collection ..a 4 star review
Hi Folks, I'm not a Yankee or Diamondback supporter per se...but this was a historic and terrific series so I picked it up immediately and have to report that this SET is a let down.
Unlike many of the other series sets this ONLY has the complete games from the series, which given that it was a full seven is acceptable but something more of the lead up would have been better for context.
Also..DON'T THROW AWAY YOUR 1 DISC 2001 MLB DVD...its not on this set..
the bonus feature they tout as "Destiny In The Desert" (2001 Official World Series Film) isn't the hour plus movie but a scant 9 Minutes!! what kind of "Film" is that? Featurette...maybe...but calling that a film is ridiculous...its about as long as the championship acceptance feature..
the bonus interviews Don't feature Schilling or Johnson?
Hey..if you are a Diamondbacks fan ...you have to have this...but its nothing compared to the 1988 Dodger set or the 1977 Yankee sets...but more...
I loved it!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching all seven games from the 2001 World Series. I hadn't seen them since watching them live when I lived in Arizona back then. Oh, the memories...some bad, some wonderful.
Every bit as exciting as when it happened
I've seen replays of the ninth inning of Game 7 a hundred times, and am still on the edge of my seat in anticipation when Gonzo steps to the plate. Great set, fun to watch (definitely more-so if you are a Dbacks fan or a Yankee hater). Gonzo, Gracie, Beautiful Steve Finley, David "Dayum-he's-hot" Delluci, Reggie, Jay, Randy, Curt and the rest ... all qualify for "Mr. November" status in my MLB record book.
Great gift to give with some tickets for opening day!
