Zack Snyder's theatrical release of Watchmen came on DVD and Blu-ray in July and the DVD premiere Watchmen: Tales of the Black Freighter in March. In November, fans will be able to see both in the same movie when Warner releases Watchment: The Ultimate Cut. The limited edition (only 70,000 will be available) five-disc DVD and four-disc Blu-ray sets will be released on Nov. 3 (prebook Sept. 29) priced at $43.87 and $59.99, respectively. The Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic also will be included. It was released separately in March. The special features menu on the Ultimate Cut also will offer: · Audio Commentary with Zack Snyder and Dave Gibbons · The Phenomenon: The Comic that Changed Comics (RT: 28:50) - Learn how the subversive, thematically complex, award winning comic that changed literature, inspired analytical debate, and won countless fans, was created. · Real Super Heroes, Real Vigilantes (RT: 27:28) - Explores the fascination and psychology behind real-world vigilantes and where that behavior crosses over into actually donning the hood and behaving as superheroes. · Mechanics: Technologies of a Fantastic World (RT: 16:46) - The creators of Watchmen had a great understanding of engineering and science, allowing for plausible mechanics in their characters tools and the world itself. This featurette will guide the viewer through the filmmakers process of turning these technologies into cinematic reality. · Watchmen: Video Journals · My Chemical Romance video Desolation Row (RT: 3:16) · Under The Hood (RT: 36:00) - A retrospective look on the biography by Hollis Mason – the original Nite Owl – and the world of those who stood for hooded justice. · Story Within A Story: The Books of Watchmen (RT: 26:00) - Weave through the nuanced layers of detail to see how a comic-within-a comic acts as parallel commentary to the acclaimed work of Literature, Watchmen. · Digital Copy of the Theatrical Version |

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Uhhh.. really? That's it? Pretty damn weak, if you ask me. Wasn't most of that stuff on the DC release? And why are we only getting the TC on digital again? The packaging better rock.
Edit: just saw packaging... meh. |
Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Pretty unimpressive
and lol at them just inserting the motion comic in its original case in the package |
Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Just got a email from amazon stating that the release has been pushed back to the 10th. Damn I was so lokking forward to this...

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Does anybody know how the $10 off coupon from the initial release will work? Is a mail-in rebate, or and WBstore only coupon?

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Heat was delayed a week too, another WB release, wonder what's going on.

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
AFAIK it's a printable e-coupon so retail only. But since the coupon is coming a month after release it won't help much with sales. A calculated move I'd say...

fuck it. I don't give a damn about the coupon anymore. I just want it.

Re: information on the upcoming Watchmen ultimate edition....
Anyone else hoping/waiting for a release of just the Ultimate Cut with commentary? I currently have the Director's Cut, and don't care about the Motion Comics, so I'm torn between getting the Black Freighter or the Ultimate Cut. It would obviously be a lot cheaper to just get the Black Freighter, but I really want the Ultimate Cut with commentary.

I think the Limited Edition status is this set only. I would be shocked if the Ultimate Cut w/commentary disc wasn't released on it's own later down the line. The fact that the motion comic was tossed in just like it was sold in stores, makes me suspect they are trying to move stock of it. |
