Have you guys heard about this?
New Line and Buena Vista home video have announced that they will start releasing some feature packed dvd's under new product lines titled "infinifilm" and "Vista", respectively.
Apparently they will feature a lot of the same extras as many other dvds, PLUS they will have interactive features on the dvd themselves, much like the "follow the white rabbit" stuff on the Matrix dvd. One example it gives is during the film 13 days while watching the actor playing Kennedy give a speech, an icon pops up and you can highlight it, activating video of the real JFK giving the same speech, then go right back to the movie, etc...
This sounds potentially cool to me, although I can forsee it being a bit overdone (Pop-video, anyone?) But I guess you can always turn the feature off.
13 days is the first infinifilm title
Unbreakable is the first Vista title...
Thoughts? Anyone?
