Well it's impossible to learn animation simply by watching a dvd, especially character animation is hard to master. If you want to learn character animation practice a lot and get "The animator's survival kitThe animator's survival kit ", if you're serious about it. Also don't expect to create long animations on your own, a short film will take up lots and lots of time already, start out simple!

It might be worth you trying the free video tutorials on this site before you go and try a long DVD tutorial. The free tutorials will give you the basics of the program and much more. It would be better than trying the long DVD tutorial first without having the basic skills. The more you know about the program the easier it will be to understand what is happening in the tutorials.

Good luck mate

i have tried most of the free tutorials that u have on the site. but each tut is covering a little percentage of an option.
the main reason why i want a dvd tut its cuz it explained from the beggining to the end of a project. and i will not have any lack of information about somthing.

again all i need is ur opinion on a good long (4-8 hours) begginers dvd

I don't think there is training for beginners that will cover a huge complete project, simply because it's way too complicated for anybody new to 3ds max and Computer Graphics. I don't think you'll benefit more from one long training dvd than a few shorter tutorials, although there are a few tutorials on EnjoyCG which cover entire projects (a castle for example).
