I usta own it on VHS. Nice, but I admit to liking the American version a tiny bit better.

Well, it's interesting to see where the two versions matched perfectly in the first half and then diverged wildly in the second half.

Hey Chris, I just got an alert form Warner Archives- The Power (1968, George Hamilton, Suzanne Pleshette, Produced by George Pal) is available!!! I would have killed for this movie a couple years ago, but $19.95 + shipping NOW? Sadly, I'm gonna pass. The story is excellent, but the FX are so dated now as to be laffable. It's a $10 flick at best at this point. Too bad. I loved it at my Son's age.

I bought Planet Earth from Warner Archive a while ago, $25 is a lot for a DVD with NO extras IMO, but I'm a big Roddenberry fan, so I coughed up the dough.
No regrets, but I'll be damned if I spit out that kinda cash for ALL the overpriced titles they have that I'd like to have...Man From Atlantis, City Beneath The Sea, Genesis II, etc. It's another form of extortion.
The Power is a great film, but for ME (I've seen it a million times on ABC's 4:30 movie in NY during the 70's) it's just not worth the $$$.

I saw this Live a couple of times during the 90's , and I thought it had a very Max flavor to it :
The movie that the song was made for had a surrealistic flavor as well...Interesting sci-fi flick worth a watch.

Sorry to interrupt the love fest here, but I've been disappointed in what I've seen so far. I know I said I'd buy at least two copies of Max Headroom back at the beginning of this thread. Not only have I not done so, I now am glad I rented it from Netflix instead. A great concept to be sure, but such poor execution. And I'm not just talking about the apparent low budget (although it might not have been, it looks it), but the acting and writing is extremely sub-par.
I got disc one several weeks ago, and had intended to zip through it quickly, but it actually took me nearly a week to get around to all four episodes, and the same for disc two. I just got disc three today, but it may sit on the shelf for a while before I get around to it. Too many other things I've been meaning to watch.
The only reason I'll watch it all is just to say that I have, so I can be confident in my overall opinion. I thought I had seen most of the series in its original broadcasts, but maybe not since I don't have memories of most of what I've seen the past few weeks.

It's a cool show in my opinion, very cyber-video & goofy to boot.
I can totally understand how you or others might say it's trash though, you have to love the concept and Max himself.
It's seriously unlike any other series I've ever seen, some might say not in a good way.
And it does meander from one thing to the next...
