This collection shows some of the best of legendary animator Ray Harryhausen's work. In this set, you get all of his Sinbad movies, Jason and the Argonauts, and the 3 Worlds of Gulliver. All of these movies showcase his spectacular talent for creating monsters, and the 3 Worlds of Gulliver, which is more of a child's fairy tale then the others, shows his wonderful camera tricks in play to show giant, and tiny, people. All the movies come with special features, including many "making of" featurettes, the Harryhausen Chronicles, still galleries, trailers, Interviews, and the like. This set is definately worth buying, either just for the movies themselves, which are wonderful fantasy films, and also to see Ray in his peak.
Ray Harryhausen's was awe inspiring back in the day, and it is still good now. I would have swapped out Guilver's travels for a different movie, since there is only one really good Harryhausen sequence in there (thus the four stars on the rating). Jason and the Argonauts has the famous skeleton fight sequence, which is only slightly cooler than the hydra. The cyclops, dragon, and rock from the 7th Voyage of Sinbad are in the same league. Dr. Who's Tom Baker saying "Achmed" a lot, stunning Caroline Munro in a harem girl outfit, and dancing Kali all rock the Golden Voyage of Sinbad. The minotaur golem and the sabertooth tiger stand out in Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger. If you get a chance to buy this, you would be a fool not to get it.
With this set, I ended up with 5 movies, Jason and the Argonauts, 3 different Sinbads, and The 3 worlds of Gulliver. Except for Gulliver, I have seen all of the other movies before, and these are still better then the newer ones. The stop motion has to be seen to be believed. The sets are beautiful, and the people could really act back then. Another one to consider buying is Clash of the Titans. I bought the new 2010 Clash of the Titans, but the story line was wrong, and the older Harryhausen version was still the best. These movies are great for the whole family, and exciting enough for the teenagers in your home.
As a child of the sixties, I grew up on these movies. I introduced my children to these movies in the 1990's and my grandchildren in 2000's. I have watched each of these films too many times to count and even though stop motion animation is much different then today's CGI, the magic that is stop motion animation and the genius that is Ray Harryhausen will never cease to fascinate children and adults alike

This is a must have for any baby boomer who was raised on Ray Harryhausen's unique style of stop motion monsters ! I remember watching all his movies and always enjoyed them ! Forget about the digital age cause, there's nothing compared to the " old style " and true art form of stop motion. Ray Harryhausen was my childhood hero and will always remain as that. Call me "old skool " if you wish but, that's quite alright by me ! Just get this and enjoy ~ the trip down Memory Lane is wonderful and a must have for kids of all ages !
Movie stories were fantastically well produced. The producer has a very good eye for cinema.
