Universal has just given us the preliminary list of supplements for
Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Epic Series. This list of extras, and the names they will go by, is not yet finalized and could be subject to change. As it stands right now, they look like this:
- Insight into the "Making of" Battlestar Galactica
- Creation of Battlestar Galactica: an Interview with creator Glen A. Larson
- Deleted Scenes
- Commentary for selected episodes by Cast/Crew
- Visual Effects with John Dykstra
- Sci-Fi Special: Making of the Show
- Composing the Music: Stu Phillips and Glen A. Larson
- Production Notes
- Sneak preview into the new Sci-Fi Channel Battlestar Galactica mini-series
- Interactive Game Trailer
Re-iterating the specs: This will be shown in the originally broadcast 4x3 aspect ratio, with both 2.0 stereo soundtrack and 5.1 Dolby soundtrack. French and Spanish subtitles are on board, along with Closed Captioning for the hearing impaired.
As we said earlier today, the release date has been pushed back exactly one week, to October 21st. The S.R.P. will be $119.98 for this 6-Disc set with almost 20 hours of show... EVERY episode of the one and only season of the original
Battlestar Galactica!
For those of you interested in owning the alternate, theatrical cut of the pilot episode, "Saga of a Star World" (with a shorter running time, and alternate scenes including a different fate for one major character), you'll be pleased to know that Universal is going to re-promote
that old DVD on the same date (10/21), at a new lower SRP of $19.98.
