LOS ANGELES - Indiana Jones entered the atomic age in his latest movie. Now he's joining the Blu-ray era.
ADVERTISEMENT
The blockbuster "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" arrives on DVD and Blu-ray high-definition disc Oct. 14, distributor Paramount announced Tuesday.
The first "Indiana Jones" flick in 19 years, "Crystal Skull" reunited Harrison Ford in the title role with director Steven Spielberg and executive producer George Lucas, who collaborated on the franchise's three previous installments.
The film moved the archaeologist-adventurer from the 1930s of his earlier exploits into the nuclear age of the 1950s.
"Crystal Skull" will be available on a single-disc DVD with just the film or in two-disc DVD and Blu-ray sets. Extras in the two-disc sets will include a segment on how the new movie evolved over its long development period; a production diary including glimpses of location shoots in New Mexico, Connecticut and Hawaii; and segments on makeup, visual effects and the crystal skulls at the heart of the action.
A DVD boxed set with all four movies also will be available.
Paramount and Lucasfilm have not yet announced when the first three movies will be released on Blu-ray.

2-disc all the way. I really enjoyed this movie and thought it was a great followup after 20 years. I don't get why so many people hated it and bashed the CGI, monkeys etc. Didn't bother me at all.

Excellent! I'll pick up the Blu-ray for sure.
While it wasn't without its flaws, I still had a great time watching it in the theater and thought it was fun entertainment overall.

I've yet to go Blu... (still smarting from HD DVD going belly up). All the Indy flicks may have pushed me over the edge. Just the 4th? I'll go with the 2-disc DVD to complete the set.
(Still good to see Blu coming out day-and-date. That's pleasantly surprising on this one.)

Don't know if this will really be new info, but I thought I'd offer it up anyway.
I briefly visited a post-production facility in L.A. as part of my job and saw a box of digibeta tapes labeled "Indiana Jones". I asked the guy there about it and he told me they were B-rolls and outtakes from the original three movies that are being used for the forthcoming box set.
