Fahrenheit 9/11 Cover Art and Specs!
 
specs from DVD Answers:

Columbia has officially announced Fahrenheit 9/11 which is the latest film from Michael Moore. The new documentary looks at the events following on from September 11th, and how the Bush Administration apparently used the tragic event to push its agenda. The disc will be available to own in shops from the 5th October this year, priced at $28.95. The documentary itself will be presented in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen along with an English Dolby Digital 5.1 track. Extras will include a featurette entitled The Release of Fahrenheit 9/11, a montage called The People of Iraq on the Eve of Invasion, a new scene entitled Homeland Security: Miami Style, an Outside Abu Ghraib Prison featurette and an Eyewitness account from Samara, Iraq. Completing the package will be an extended Michael Moore interview with Abdul Henderson, Lila Lipscomb at the Washington D.C. Premiere, a featurette on some Arab-American Comedians and their acts and experiences after 9/11, Condoleeza Rice's 9/11 Commission Testimony and a Rose Garden press briefing after the 9/11 commission appearance.

I'd prefer the pic of Moore and Bush holding hands.

Straight off the movie poster... not bad.

DRG 08-02-04 01:51 PM

Actually, that looks slightly different than the theatrical poster...

Different angle, different background, and a different expression on Moore's face (a bit more solemn).

By most reports, the release date is October 5.

Any specs on this yet? As someone who enjoyed the film the first time through, I have to admit that replay value on this one is LOW...I found it rather dull during the second sit-through.

Tom Woodward 08-02-04 03:36 PM

We just posted them on our site along with the artwork, but I'm having problems quoting it at the moment without it crashing my browser! It's out the 5th October anyway, priced at $28.95.

i've updated the first post with the specs.

now all i need is a moderator to change the subject line to include "and Specs" at the end.

Plus he's showing off a little more nostril in that DVD cover. ;)

Yes, that was brilliant.

Doc Mardan 08-03-04 02:38 AM

and why exactly did they alter the original poster art for the dvd release?

Jackskeleton 08-03-04 04:56 AM

add american flag hat to picture and get more of a profile on moores face to have it more recognizable?

QuikSilver 08-03-04 07:11 PM

I like the original poster art better and they shouldn't have altered it for the DVD.

DeGalon 08-03-04 07:47 PM

The cover looks great! I'm really looking forward to this DVD.

Josh Z 08-03-04 07:56 PM

17 posts and no thread-crapping yet? Wow, I'm amazed. Must be a new record.

Wait hold on a min. I think MM is getting full of himself. I was always thinking it was about the movie and not yourself you was trying to sell.

I don't think he gives a crap about movie making now just putting himself on TV and movie screens. It's no longer about the message of his films anymore it's about how much attention he can get now. I mean how many movie markers put their face on a DVD and movie poster?

PS. The above is not a thread crap. It's a view on the cover art and view on the movie that is on the DVD that this thread is talking about.
