Pacific Rim Blu-Ray / DVD Special Edition: What to Expect

Pacific Rim is available for HD Digital Download on all major online retailers now! If you can’t wait a week for the October 15th release of the Blu-ray / DVD sets then stop reading and go download it now! What are you waiting for, another KAIJU ATTACK!?

But if you’re a fan of Special Features, box sets, and all things collectible, I’d hold off if I were you. Leave the Kaiju fighting to Gipsy Danger while you enjoy the Limited Edition 3D Blu-ray Gift Pack. I’m talking a FOUR disc power house of special features and cross-platform entertainment; including 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, DVD, and UltraViolet digital download. Not only can you enjoy the movie in eye-busting 3D, optic nerve shattering HD, visually humble DVD, or travel-friendly digital download; but you also get a beautiful Jaeger statuette to proudly display in your collection. I don’t know about you, but I love my special editions!

If you’re not starting (or adding to) a giant robot collection then save your dollars. You can still enjoy Pacific Rim in your preferred format.

3D Blu-ray Combo Pack (3D Blu-ray / Blu-ray / DVD / UltraViolet)
Blu-ray Combo Pack (Blu-ray / DVD / UltraViolet)
DVD Special Edition (2 Disc DVD Set)

All versions include the same bonus features:

Audio Commentary by director Guillermo Del Toro
Prologue by director Guillermo Del Toro (Disc 1)
Focus Points
-Prologue by director Guillermo Del Toro (Disc 2)
-The Director’s Notebook
-Drift Space
-The Digital Artistry of Pacific Rim
-The Shatterdome
Deleted Scenes
Blooper Reel

The hardest choice you’ll have to make is which cover art is the prettiest, and if you really want to invest in 3D Blu-ray. I don’t even own a 3D Blu-ray, but I’ve already reserved my Limited Edition. (I need that Jaeger statuette!)

Stay tuned for continued (if not terribly delayed) coverage of Japanese influence on American cinema.
