NBA-Michael Jordan: His Airness | R1 |
The Ultimate Jordan 2 disc set is available in Region 1 (which I personally own) and contains all five of his documentaries including His Airness. The video quality is effectively equivalent to the Region 4 DVD reviewed here, but the audio is much better with more clarity and no distortion. There are also some additional extras provided in the 2 disc set, such as the "It's Gotta Be The Shoes" featurette. Furthermore, the Region 1 set provides animated menus with background music, which are much nicer than the static Region 4 menus. I also recently found out that they have released an Ultimate Jordan 20th Anniversary Edition 3 disc set that is essentially equivalent to the 2 disc set but contains an extra disc with Jordan's five all-time greatest games in their entirety. Considering that most of those games are in the Chicago Bulls - The 1990s Region 1 DVD collection that I also own, this is probably only a good buy if you have neither the original 2 disc set nor the Chicago Bulls DVD. Michael Jordan His Airness is also available in a stand-alone release in Region 1, out since 1999. With the other multiple disc sets available, I wouldn't bother with this release which is identical to the Region 4 version. If you are a Michael Jordan fan such as myself, then the Region 1 Ultimate Jordan 2 disc or 3 disc sets are the only way to go. |
