In early July we
reported that the new
Aeon Flux film was going to inspire a new DVD release of the original animated MTV show that the Charlize Theron movie is based on. At the time, we told you to expect the DVD in October, but distrubutor Paramount Home Entertainment has now confirmed a November release date.
And, as
DVDPlanet's pre-order listing shows,
November 22nd is the exact street date for
Aeon Flux - The Complete Animated Collection. This is a 3-disc affair which fans will enjoy a lot more than the hard-to find
original 4-episode DVD released in the disc format's first year, 1997.
Not only will this release consist of the complete series, but it will have some great extras on it as well. Planned bonus material (subject to change) includes:
- Commentary tracks
- Interviews with Peter Chung, production crew, and the cast
- "History of Aeon Flux" featurette
- ...and much more!
The video is remastered, and the sound will be in Dolby 5.1. SRP is $39.95 for all of this, but DVDPlanet is taking orders now for just $27.97 (see link above). Stay tuned for cover art and any updates.
