Sounds like they went all-out for this collection...

But ten discs for a trilogy movie set is a bit too much...

With the popularity of the Matrix sequels, I doubt that line will be very long.

It was hard to see how badly they had missed with Revolutions. I' m probably not going to buy this collection, although it' s nice that they' ve put all that stuff together in one set.
