MacGyver Online Forums > News Desk > MacGyver TV movies available on one disc this June


Posted by: MacGyverOnline 8 March 2010 - 12:22 PM
CBS/Paramount are set to release the two made-for-TV MacGyver movies, 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' and 'Trail to Doomsday' on a single DVD this June 8th.

Previously these two movies have only been available as extras to the Full Series Box-set which was released after the individual seasons box-sets were completed. This has always been a point of contention amongst fans of the show who felt BS/Paramount were duping them. This will now be rectified as the single-disc release (185 minutes) will be available for separate purchase on June 8th.

There is no indication of any extra features or material being available on this release.

For these two, I'm prepared to give up one or two of those. harhar.gif

Yeah... nobody needs both legs to watch 'MacGyver'!
And only need on arm for working the remote control...

Though two movies for the price of one sounds like a pretty good bargain.

Posted by: jackwabbit 10 March 2010 - 06:01 AM
Sweet! About time, indeed!

Posted by: Dennman 16 March 2010 - 04:54 PM
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will certainly buy these. Anyone know why the movies never had the theme music?

Posted by: RamonCota 16 March 2010 - 09:42 PM

Nope. They got their own themes like many episodes. But there's plenty of recognisable music used in the show as well. Like the chase scene in Lost Treasure of Atlantis.

One for the remote and another one for a drink or munchies. biggrin.gif

Fantastic!! I can't wait!! biggrin.gif

I wonder if this has anything to do with the (upcoming) release of the MacGruber movie. hmm.bmp

Perhaps this is a good opportunity to tell people: MacGruber is not MacGyver!

Posted by: MacGirl 21 March 2010 - 01:47 PM
Looks like the price will indeed be reasonable. It'll be in the range of $14-15 USD, depending on just where you get it. Not bad for two movies!

Posted by: Beachbead 23 March 2010 - 10:32 AM
yay! finally ^^

Posted by: RamonCota 24 March 2010 - 05:25 PM
found this. it's only $12.86!

i think i will probably pre-order it. walmart has great prices.
i've been ordering dvds from there alot.

Posted by: Geekgirl 26 March 2010 - 08:38 AM
Got mine pre-ordered! Yah, I finally get to see the movies. I was in college when these came out and totally missed them when they aired.

Posted by: MacGyverOnline 26 March 2010 - 02:17 PM
I've added the movies to the carousel at the bottom of this topic for easy access. wink.gif


Posted by: angus20 29 March 2010 - 07:24 PM
ok nice and finally, but i want it in blue ray, it's there any chance?

Posted by: MacGyverGod 30 March 2010 - 03:19 AM
We'd better be happy it's on regular dvd. I think all popular series from now get their chance on blu-ray first.

Posted by: Miasma 3 April 2010 - 05:02 PM
I really wish they'd add some extras like interviews with RDA about the series, and a documentary about the history of the show. I know they won't, but it would be great. That's one thing I miss on the season DVD sets-- they should have done like they did for Stargate SG-1 by including featurettes, interviews, ets. Oh well.

* adds something else to his wishlist.

PS Seasons 6 should be out in the UK about now.

*happy dance* I actually have bootleg copies, but I'll cheerfully replace them with the legit DVD as soon as it's available!

Now if only they'd release Legend on DVD!!

The price could be $10 or less down here by now at this rate ~ might just suit my "cheapskate" tastes for DVD purchases...
