Munich rumored dvd release: 5/9/06
According to the digital bits, Munich will be released on 5/9. I'm guessing Paramount is handling this release? Whomever it is, there must be a DTS track on there.

Munich was a Universal/Dreamworks/Alliance Atlantis production, so Paramount doesn't come into the equation. I believe Dreamworks is handling the disc. As per Spielberg, this will definitely have a DTS track on it. I'm sure it'll fall into the standard SS release pattern, single movie only disc, two disc deluxe edition with a great making of doc.

Digital Bits worded it: "We also expect Dreamworks (via Paramount) to bow Steven Spielberg's Munich on 5/9". Paramount owns Dreamworks now, so I'm sure they now handle all the distribution. I think part of the deal was the Dreamworks name will be used on 6 or 7 titles per year. Basically, titles Spielberg is involved in.
If they have a 2-disc set, I'm all over that. I loved this movie. It was just very well-made. Very gritty. Plus, there was a couple of Hitchcock-like moments in the film.

The last two Spielberg films to get a dual release were "The Terminal" and "War of the Worlds". "The Terminal" didn't exactly set the box office ablaze but it still had a lot more general appeal than "Munich". Because "Munich" doesn't have that "Joe Sixpack" appeal, I wouldn't be at all surprised if there was just a single 2-disc release.

I'm hoping it is just a single 2-disc set, I'm really tired of companies releasing two versions and releasing the 2-disc for 10-15 dollars more (War of the Worlds). This was in my top 3 of 2005, really looking forward to this release.

The Digital Bits has some early artwork up, apparently from an online survey Dreamworks had last week.
quite like 2 and 3 myself.. and i sure hope they don't go for the cluttered 4 or 5.

I like the second the best, by far.

I like the second cover a lot. Has a lot of great contrast with the deep maroonish-red and tealish-blues. Also, it's simple - as opposed to very complex designs that are flushing the cover market as of late.

Oh, son of a (BLEEP)!!! They better not overcharge for the limited set like they did with Jarhead.
I can't wait. Munich was one of the most underrated films of 2005 (#4 on my list) that got screwed out of an Oscar for Editing (thank you very much, Paul Haggis and Crash).

Great news! I will definately be picking up the 2 disc myself, no matter what cover art they choose. I like the third myself, kind of reminds me of Cinderella Man 2 disc with that tannish border.

Stunning movie. Thrilling, provocative, and heart-breaking. Spielberg never ceases to amaze me. Count me in for the 2-Disc unless they pull another hard-to-find/insanely-expensive trick again.
