Jawbreaker has always been a favorite of mine. It fits right in with Heathers and Mean Girls. Seeing as how the original pressing of the DVD with the 16x9 enhanced 1.85:1 transfer has been out of print for several years now, it seems like a good time for a rerelease, especially now being the 10th anniversary. The DVD that's available now (with only a 1.33:1 open-matte transfer) has a limited number of extras, including a director's commentary track and the trailer. I'd love to hear a cast commentary with Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, and Judy Greer. New interviews, deleted scenes, etc. Anything would be good.

I actually enjoyed this film enough to bite (see what I did there?) on a BD.

^ please explain.

I watched part of this the other day and I thought it sucked. Even with Rose "Smokin' Hot" McGowan in it the film couldn't hold my attention.

I'm down for Jawbreaker on BD as well.

I bought the original DVD for $5 a few years ago and couldn't make it past the first 30 minutes - I was expecting a HEATHERS but got...well, whatever this was supposed to be. I doubt there is much of a following to justify a 10th anniversary edition, but stranger things have happened.

Sony did release a 10th anniversary BD and DVD of Can't Hardly Wait (another of my favs) last year. I don't think Can't Hardly Wait is all that popular either so maybe there is hope for Jawbreaker too.

Can't Hardly Wait is a much bigger film than Jawbreaker. CHW did okay theatrical business but was a big hit at home. Jawbreaker bombed in theaters and on video.

Can't Hardly Wait is a favorite of mine. Heathers was great too.

Jawbreaker was... blah. I bought the WS/FS flipper of it at Big Lots for $3. Just like mdc3000, I couldn't get past the first thirty minutes. It was that bad.

Well, Jawbreaker finally got a Blu-ray release (April 5, 2011) and I'm just now finding out about it a month after the fact. I'm glad Image finally did the right thing after (re)releasing it on DVD last December in open-matte only. For those of you who have it, is it a 1080p transfer? How's it look? Is the director's commentary from the DVD carried over?

Have you checked for reviews?

Matthew Chmiel

No bonus material has been carried over.

However, from reviews I've read, PQ/AQ are outstanding with a 1080p transfer and DTS-HD MA 5.1 track. It's nice to see Sony give Image the best material to work with unlike other studios (ahem, Buena Vista and Mill Creek, Miramax and Lionsgate/Echo Bridge, ahem).

PhantomStranger

It is very possible that Sony had already created the video encode and let Image use it on their release. Image on their own is very hit-or-miss for picture quality.

I was able to get my copy of Jawbreaker signed by rose this weekend at work, when i met her durring the TCM filmfestival.
