Attack of the Clones on DVD & VHS Nov. 12

http://www.comingsoon.net/cgi-bin/archive/fullnews.cgi?newsid1028181972,29630,

The Hollywood Reporter tonight confirmed that Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones will hit DVD ($29.98) and VHS ($24.98) on November 12, backed by a multimillion-dollar marketing campaign.

The two-disc "Episode II" DVD, which will be available in both full-screen and anamorphic widescreen versions, will incorporate more than six hours of additional materials.

Disc 1, which will offer Dolby 5.1 Surround EX, will include feature-length commentary from writer-director George Lucas, producer Rick McCallum, sound designer Ben Burtt, Industrial Light + Magic animation director Rob Coleman and ILM visual effects supervisors Pablo Helman, John Knoll and Ben Snow.

The second disc is loaded with extras. As it did with the Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace disc, ILM went back and finished the special effects in eight deleted scenes and included them on the DVD. Additional content includes three featurettes, a 12-part Web documentary series, theatrical trailers, 12 TV spots, the Fox TV "R2-D2: Beneath the Dome" mockumentary, a visual effects breakdown montage, an exclusive production photo gallery and the "Across the Stars" music video featuring John Williams.

The special-edition VHS will include six selected deleted scenes and a "Star Wars: Connections" featurette hosted by R2-D2 and C-3PO, who explain the "Star Wars" story to new fans.

Lucasfilm and Fox will release the remaining "Star Wars" films sequentially, which means the original trilogy will not be released on DVD until after "Episode III" is released on DVD..

:big grin: :D :P ;)
