WB 100th 25-Film Collection, Volume Three: Fantasy, Action & Adventure
P**A
WB 100 sets are an absolute gem
This is a lovingly crafted box set of some of WBs best in fantasy, action and adventure. While I get some folks have strong opinions about certain inclusions and exclusions but here I am looking at this set and I just can’t complain. It’s a delightful package that satisfies the physical media enthusiast while also very conveniently allowing 25 movies to be added and accessible to your online cloud library to watch whenever. WB has gone all out and it shows and I can’t compliment the classy packaging enough. Yes, to preserve a Blu ray for optimum longevity it’s ideal to store them in jewel cases as the special packaging grips the Blu rays too tightly and you need some patience to get these out without any scratches. A tiny demerit for the packaging due to this flaw in an otherwise delightful package. Keep it up WB and your fans will continue to support you. Just a suggestion here… run a poll amongst your fans to know better what they would like in your next set and you might win over some new fans too.

A good selection of films and works on Region 2/B Blu-Ray players
So when I heard that there were 4 of these boxsets coming out to celebrate this huge milestone for Warner Brothers, I got excited.Happy to confirm that all the discs will work on region 2/B Blu-Ray players. These are not 4K, but I'm fine with that.The selection of films on this set is good mostly. Some feel a little random like Justice League and Supergirl (which I feel are mediocre), but if you love DC films and also fantasy films like Pan's Labyrinth and Lord of the Rings, you'll get a kick out of this set.Be very careful with removing the discs as taking them out if the book like case, isn't impossible. But it's not exactly easy as one would like.You also get a booklet which goes over things that the crew remember from making the films. And two pin badges which are both the studio logo from different times.I'm overall happy with this purchase. Some will say that it doesn't feel complete with some films missing some bonus features such as the extended version of Lord of the Rings and the Zack Snyder cut of Justice League.But that is understandable as having those extra discs may make this set a bit more expensive than what it is at the moment and it's still a great set with some good bonus features despite that.So yeah, very happy with this set and looking forward to buying the other 3 😁

A Real Mixed Bag (errr Box) Collection
While I had already seen a few of these movies years ago, I decided to purchase this box set primarily to view all those I had not seen (and some I never heard of), as well as revisit my memories of some of the older films. What I got was a mixed set of movies ranging from amazing (Joker) to one of the worst movies ever (Supergirl).To me, the quality of the movie starts with the story (screenwriter). If you have a good, believable story to tell, especially if it explores points of humanity and change over time, then it's likely that the movie will be good. If the movie relies on special effects and overly-caustic blasting and continuously beating soundtracks, then the movie will likely be painful to work through. Worst of all, if a movie is full of inconsistencies, implausibilities, and even stupidity, then the movie is horrible (I am reminded of how Supergirl with all of her powers could save only the scoop of a bulldozer instead of the entire "out of control" vehicle, or how an overly-dramatic witch had more powers than a fragile and naive Supergirl). While you will have your own favorites, here is how I ranked the 25 movies in this boxed set:Poor: SupergirlVery Bad: The Neverending Story, Constantine, The Suicide SquadBad: Twister, 300, Man of Steel, AquamanFair: Superman, Pan's Labyrinth, Justice League, Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley QuinnGood: The Dark Knight, Mad Max: Fury Road, Wonder Woman, Black AdamVery Good: Lethal Weapon, Batman, Ocean's Eleven, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Shazam!Excellent: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, V for Vendetta, Joker

Great collectors set.
I've always enjoyed action/adventure movies, and with all of the movies in this set, I had to get it. Only problems I had was with the digital code and the DVDs being In the pull out cases that easily scratches the disk. When it came to the digital code, instead of getting the Ocean's 11 from 2001, I got the original ocean's 11 from the 1960s.
