Update from DVDANSWERS:

Further Details
DreamWorks has today released some early details on a single-disc and double-disc limited edition of War of the Worlds which stars Tom Cruise. This new Steven Spielberg directed movie, will be available to own from the 22nd November this year. The single-disc will retail at around $29.99 - the retail price for the two-disc edition is currently unavailable. Both releases will feature a 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer, along with both English Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 Surround tracks. The only extra on the single-disc release will be a Designing the Enemy: Tripods and Aliens featurette. The two-disc edition will include that, along with an introduction by Spielberg, a four-part production diary documentary, four behind-the-scenes featurettes (The HG Wells Legacy, Characters: The Family Unit of War of the Worlds, Pre-Visualization and Scoring War of the Worlds), some closing words by Steven Spielberg, design and production photo galleries, and the film's theatrical trailer. Our thanks to our friends at The Digital Bits for the heads up.

Damn, I thought this was for the rerelease of the Pal version.


The new Top Gun had a sweet 6.1 DTS track.

Fuck me!

All I have for that particular day is Aeon Flux and War of the Worlds, but between October and November, I have a potential total of 13 DVDs waiting for me. At current prices offered at Best Buy--most of which should drop by each disc's release day--I'm looking at hundreds of dollars. Don't see a smilie for shuddering. :)

Two-disc looks awesome. I'm pumped. Will be mine on Nov 22. :)

ATTENTION BUYERS! Though I can't find a reference to it on the Wal-Mart website, according to a large marketing placard at my local store, Wal-Mart will be offering an exclusive bonus DVD with purchase of WAR OF THE WORLDS [2005] (no details on its contents)!

TomOpus 11-08-05 08:38 PM

Cool... always interested in seeing what the bonus DVD might be. I can't wait for this release.

especially the dts track. ooph!!

TNAJason 11-08-05 10:09 PM

Why do I have a feeling that the bonus disc will only be with the 1-disc?

So help me if this is another one of those deals where you have to pay Walmart $5 more for a piece of crap bonus disc, no thanks!

That echoes the very fear I had when I read the sign; if so, I will go ballistic.

On the press release, it said that the theatrical trailer would be included on the 2-disc version. But , on the 2nd disc menu screens Seen Here it doesnt show it? Is it still on there?

Filmmaker 11-09-05 11:12 AM

If the last two Spielberg releases (as well as any number of Dreamworks releases over the last 2 years or so) are an indication, the trailer will NOT be included, which sucks ass.

cseyer 11-09-05 12:06 PM

I have preordered the two disc at Amazon cant wait looks like a sweet release. I really wish they would include the trailers though.
