• Not only that, but it's a Criterion release, as it fucking well should be.

• I know, man. Not one mention of their Homeland in Minnesota.

• Deadliest Warriors was pretty rad... as long as you disregard the "Samurai vs. Viking" episode. The guys who represented the "vikings" were a couple of idiot fuckface douchefags who got all their "facts" about the Norse from pictures in comic books and heavy metal album covers. 0% historical knowledge, 0% real research. Total SHITE!!!

• I look exactly like Daria. Everyone says so... You're standing on my neck.

• I look exactly like Daria. Everyone says so... You're standing on my neck.

• All the songs on the Daria DVD are edited out with generic ones, that pretty much ruin the feel of the show. You'd be better to find some links online and download it.

• Picked up my copy of the Daria DVDs today... The packaging leaves a lot to be desired, although I don't quite care about the misplaced music that most people do... I just would have liked something that looked a bit more like a full series collection to put on my shelf... Despite that, I'm thrilled to have it on DVD. One of my favorite animated shows ever. Glad to have it all on hand.

• I wonder if they'll use the Noggin edits for the DVD release. Some of the episodes were heavily edited for content when they were replayed on Noggin.

• Megas XLR. Damn it! I never did get to see the final show. CN was running it again and then poof, they stopped airing it right after episode 25. Damn it they've left me hanging all these years. I guess I could find it on the internets, but that wouldn't mean much to me today.

• I'm among the male readers going nuts that Daria is finally on DVD. My brother and I watched it in high school (yikes, that was a while ago) and I wanted to gift it to him for Christmas this last year. I was shocked that it wasn't available after all this time, but now...now I'll have to get two.

• Got the DVDs despite the stripped music, and it's still awesome. There's still the occasional song I remember that's not there (for whatever reason, "Back That Azz Up" when they're trapped in the blizzard), but IT'S AWESOME NEVERTHELESS. Wooooo, Daria.

• i had received the Daris dvds early through a presale and are loving them, although the music is missed a little

• It's going for $27 on Amazon right now.

• Daybreakers was good but not great; worth a rent.

• I <3 Mr. Magoo!

• I am cool and that is it and everyone else is full of... full of... full of... TAD! TRISHA!

• "I'm curious to know how many female TR readers -- and male, for that matter -- are losing their minds that it's finally available." *raises hand and gibbers madly*

• Male, 30 here. I'm stoked about the Daria DVDs, despite the music rights issues. This show was my jam back in the late 90s and Daria and Jane were basically my ideal female personalities. Fastforward to the present and I'm engaged to a woman who majored in English in college, is incredibly intelligent, possibly more viciously sarcastic than I am, and wears glasses (though her specs are more Lisa Loeb and less Daria). We'll be watching these together. Also, "Sick Sad World" is quite possibly the greatest fake television show ever.

• Been waiting for Daria to be out finaly. it will be the firs dvd i get this week. along with m. day breakers that thing was so bad box office wise. that the dvd can not even make it worth a second look.

• Watching Daria is pointless without all the great 90s music and references. Way to continue to fuck things up just as much as you did with the state, money hungry bastards.

• Nope. They replaced the music with "sound-alikes."

• ...I buy Mr. Magoo DVDS..

• The vamps in daybreakers sucked. No powers just weaknesses. Why would the human race choose that. The twilight vamps looked bad-ass by comparison.

• DARIA! WOOT! Hopefully it will have all the songs intact, which is why it took soo long to get on DvD.

• really excited about the daria dvds. Loved this show!

• Watching Daria right now, currently on The Teachings of Don Jake. My copy arrived in the mail today. So happy! Can anyone say glitter berries? The music change isn't too noticable actually.

• You're just so streets behind.

• I am losing my mind over Daria DVDs. I am also a dude. - I saw Daybreakers when it came out in theaters. It was pretty good as far as terrible horror movies go. I mean that in the best way possible. Far preferred it to Legion.

• Have Daria loaded onto my Netflix, because I want to hear the music replacements. If it doesn't bother me too much (and I don't think it will), I'm getting it.

• Stop trying to coin the phrase streets ahead!

• Just an FYI, M isn't horror, more of a drama with a bit of thriller thrown in. Fantastic movie, btw.

• Malice in Wonderland seems interesting. I could buy it.

• For a second there I got excited when I saw "M", but then I thought "Why?". After all, this isn't some new edition of a lost print or anything. It's just a remaster for BluRay of the same old Criterion print that's been on DVD for years now. There's no way they're going to be able to squeeze any more resolution out of 80 year old film. Some of the extras might be nice, but I can't see any reason to shell out for a BR copy that cannot possibly be qualitatively superior to something I already have.

• Undressed is where the power rangers went after they were booted for a new cast.. good times.. wouldn't buy a DVD though.

• I love me some "M.". We shall weep together.

• Well, I look forward to becoming more familiar with Daria, let's put it that way.

• I saw Daybreakers in the USA. While not terrible, it was mostly all premise with little pay-off. What you'd expect from a January movie release (the dumping ground of postponed, doomed-to-fail movies.)

• Daybreakers was one of my biggest cinematic disappointments in a long time. Great looking trailer, promising start, but by the midway point had devolved into pure camp-cheese, like a SyFy original movie with great production values and 20x the budget. And come to think of it, Blade: Trinity's human farm had a more original design. (Digression: As a superhero/vampire/comic book film with wire fu fights and a hard techno soundtrack, 1998's Blade was the harbinger of the next dozen years of genre movies to come.) Legion looks like they took the angel wars premise of The Prophecy series but turned it into yet another zombie siege movie. And after 28 Days Later and Sean of the Dead I think every last drop of lemonade has been squeezed out of that particular genre.

• I'd buy all the Mr. Magoo cartoons in the universe before I paid money for anything Daria...Or Darireha as the show she spun off from would say. I one read a comic in MAD (I think) where Daria went to the hospital and they removed a stick from her ass and she was then some what pleasant. I'm a dude. And I'm actually surprised to see so many people here happy for this. I've never me anyone who like this show.

• Wow. I think I'd really like to see "M" on Blu-Ray. A movie way ahead of its time.

• I watched Daybreakers in the smallest cinema screen ever. I'm not kidding, it was about the size of my living room. There must have been about 15 of us in there, and it was full. And about twenty minutes before the end of the film, a couple left and started to argue outside, but the cinema was so small the entire screen could hear every word. I didn't really mind that much, because I was quite bored by that point. So...yeah.

• Daria has been in release hell for a long time because it used a lot of song clips, which were licensed for TV but not DVD.

• 20 is so, so young. Sigh. Now get off my e-lawn, ya damn kid!

• They probably seem similar because both King of the Hill and Daria basically originated from Beavis and Butthead-- specifically, from the mind of Mike Judge. And calling Daria "better" than King of the Hill is just silly. They're thematically similar, but the specifics are not even close. And, really, they're both streets ahead.

• I really liked daybreakers untill the ending half hour or so, it was like they just walked out for lunch and forgot the scriot was due that days so they just wrote down whatever came to mind well maybe they just told the director to wing it

• it would halarious if a bunch of nearsighted people are buying dvds about a nearsighted cartoon character on accident.

• Damn, Daria on TV and I just cancelled Netflix.

• This also makes me think, we really need a Daria-involved FanFictionFriday this week. In honor of this, and whatnot.

• This is very true, sadly. Same reason only a few "best of" type DVDs of Top Gear ever get released - the rights issues for all the music is just too difficult. *Theoretically* having the official Daria release be switched to a generic soundtrack shouldn't matter much, but... rewatching the old episodes, there's just so much nostalgia every time an obscure track that I recognize comes on.

• Aww, that's a shame. Still thanks for the info.

• Maybe they're hoping people will be very confused and think this is the Mr Magoo Christmas Carol? Never underestimate people's love for razzleberry gravy.

• So...I'm the only one that cares about "M"? By Fritz Lang, the guy who directed Metropolis? Starring Peter Lorre? Nobody? I weep for the world...

• daybreakers hit theaters but it flopped pretty hard. shame too it had potential

• "Daria: The Complete Animated Series" FUCK AND YES!!!! Now all I need is a Megas XLR DVD set and I can die happy!

• (Male) I'm a bit younger (20 is young, apparently) but I remember watching Daria reruns on The N when I was 13-14. Pretty good from what I can remember, might have to look into the DVDs.

• I HAVE PREORDERRED MY DARIA

• Yes! Still the finest adaptation of the Dickens' classic. Razzleberry dressing all around!

• Although I'm not 100% certain, I believe they have replaced most of the music that they did not want to pay for on the DVD.

• I haven't seen much Daria, but what I have seen, I liked. My wife loves the show, so we'll be buying it. It vaguely reminded me of "King of the Hill," but much, much better.

• Daria on dvd! Have they finally got the rights to the original music that held it up? Here's hoping it gets a region 2 release too. And yes I am a guy.

• Hey...SPOILER ALERT! Sheesh. And yes, Undressed is the show that taught me many of the misconceptions I still hold today about sex. Thanks MTV.

• Saw daybreakers in theater in the US. It was pretty heavily promoted. It sucked a lot. Interesting premise but it falls apart fast.

• Daria was awesome. "Pinch Sitter" was my favorite episode. Daria gets stuck babysitting 2 mary sue kids and corrupts them. Still waiting for a release of Clone High that won't cost an arm and a leg, or is actually in stock when I have cash to buy it.

• It has; my dad owns it. Which also answers the question of who's buying the set - Father's Day is coming.

• Daybreakers is a good little flick. Legion is meh. Deadliest Warrior freaking rulz!

• LA LA LA, LA LA. LA LA LA, LA LA.

• I watched Daria quite faithfully during the bleak summer of 1998. I would prefer not to return to that time, or most of the 90s for that matter.

• I'd say you got a better deal out of the bootlegs, since 85% of the music will be stripped for the legit DVDs. But I'm a big fan of 90's alt rock. YMMV.

• DARIA!!!!! La la la la laaaa . . . now I just have to wait until it gets cheaper :(

• I never heard of that particular Mr. Magoo cartoon, but if "A Mr. Magoo Christmas Carol" ever gets the DVD treatment I am all over that.

• Daybreakers was out over here (UK), I even saw an advert on a bus I think. It was mostly great because there were two excited teenage girls in the cinema wondering how it would compare to New Moon (yes, Twilight). I hope it scarred their Smeyer-tainted minds forever.

• I actually BOUGHT a bootleg DVD set of the complete Daria series several years back. At San Diego ComicCon, to be specific. Eh, it looked legit on the outside, and I was so excited on seeing it for sale I didn't really consider that "hey, there might be a strong chance this is sketchy." Turned out to be pretty decent (only two episodes out of the full series, plus movies, had major problems) despite being obviously just burned on a consumer grade optical drive. Plus, it was pretty hilarious to have the extra animated lead-ins from the big marathons MTV occasionally did, as well as bits during the credits encouraging the watching of TRL or The Real World. Honestly I'm probably going to buy this again, for real this time.

• Yay! Daria is finally on DVD. And season one of Deadliest Warrior. I know what I'm putting on my birthday list.

• Maybe they're a bunch of very nearsighted people who mistake it for an Elmer Fudd collection?

• Man, I LOVED Daria. It's about damn time! *skips off to the store*

• Hooray for Daria. I used to stay up all night watching rerun marathons of Daria that MTV had on the weekends all those years ago. By the way Daybreakers was in theaters breifly, that is where I saw it. It was actually pretty awesome. The only thing that still bugs me about it is this, where was Willem Defoe during the finale? He did show up heroically at the last minute but where did he disappear off to while the other characters were saving the world. Hey does anybody remember MTV's Undressed? That was another show I would stay up late on weekends watching rerun marathons of on MTV. It was always either Undressed or Daria they had on late back then.

• HAHAAHAH thanks for the hilarious Magoo question! :D (it's not me, btw)

• Daybreakers had strong performances, a neat premise and a great look. I just think the ending could have been better.

• Daria was great until she got a boyfriend. Oh yeah Im a dude.

• Hey, Aussie here. Daybreakers was filmed here with an Aussie crew (plus a few cast members), and was in cinemas here 3 months or so ago. Not a big budget film, but well-made and easily one of the better vampire movies I've seen in rcent years. Dafoe is pure gold, and there's massive amounts of gore to be had. I'd recommend giving it a viewing.

• I really enjoyed Daria when it was on TV and can tell you I'd be willing to shell out some money to have it on dvd. Legion should have been a made for sy-fy flick. When Dennis Quaid, Paul Bettany and Charles S Dutton all get together nothing happens. I will wait for Cinemax. Daybreakers was in theaters and if I recall was box office shit. It was a bigger bomb then what we dropped on hiroshima. That being said it is an interesting premise I am just wondering if it was properly executed.
