10th Kingdom - The Epic Miniseries Event

The Movie's Great! The Packaging is Weird... *Updated*
I've owned the original "10th Kingdom" DVD set for more than 10 years now and have watched it many times, so I mainly bought this newer 2013 edition as a back up (because at such a low cost, why not?). I've run through the discs to see if there are any differences in this new edition, and yes, there are some differences.
The main thing that I noticed right away is the presentation of the episodes: in the original DVD set, there where 3 discs, with the opening titles at the beginning of the first disc only, and the mini-series was presented as one, very long movie. In this new set, there are still three discs, but the story is presented in the way they were aired - as 5 separate parts. I personally would have liked the mini-series to be presented the same way as the older DVDs, but at least this new set allows the viewer to enjoy the opening titles with each episode (and those titles are amazing, I doubt anyone'd get sick of it).
The Special Features in the new set are fewer...

It was rare for awhile, I'm glad to see it's getting re-released! It's highly underated.
I have been looking for the 10th Kingdom on DVD for about a year that was at a reasonable price. I wanted to get it for my mom for Christmas, because it has been her favorite ever since it premiered in 2000. I held out since I didn't want to pay $30 for a DVD, but I bought her the VHS for 4 bucks. Now I've pre-ordered this at a great price, absolutely perfect! The movie is 6 hours of epic fantasy, with an amazing cast, and a creative and enticing storyline that mixes a modern family into a fairytale world that wasn't exactly happily ever after. I would recommended this to everyone of all ages!

Amazing Miniseries
I just pre-ordered- absolutely loved it when it first aired on NBC in 2000, and I've adored it ever since. I'm actually repurchasing this because my current DVDs of the series have been so well loved they're a bit scratched. If you're into Once Upon a Time, you will really enjoy this. I cannot believe there has not been a sequel!
