Home Video Extra Features
If you have been waiting a long, long time, you will be happy to hear Twentieth Century Fox Home Video is releasing Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith right in time for the Christmas shopping season. Although you will have to chose the size that’s right for you (either wide or full screen) both editions are stuffed with the same bonus goodies.
Included in the two discs set is a commentary by writer-director George Lucas, producer Rick McCallum, animation director Rob Coleman, and ILM visual effects supervisors John Knoll and Roger Guyett, as well as deleted scenes introduced by George Lucas and Rick McCallum.
Get deep into the headspace of the creators of the movie with the featurettes: Within a Minute (the making of the Mustafar battle), The Chosen One (George Lucas traces the myth of Darth Vader through episodes 1-6) and It’s All for Real (the stunts of Episode III). Also offered is the 15-part collection of Lucasfilm’s Web documentaries. Gamers will take note of the opportunities to see the trailers for Star Wars Battlefront II (and take an Xbox game demo for a spin) and Star Wars Empire at War for the PC. The DVD-ROM component lets you test-drive a free trial of Hyperspace: The Ultimate Online Star Wars Experience. The package is all tied up with a music video for A Hero Falls, poster and print campaign samples, trailers and TV spots, and a never-before-seen production photo gallery. Audio tracks are available in English (Dolby Digital 5.1 EX), Spanish (Dolby Digital 5.1 EX) and French (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround), with subtitles in Spanish.
