DavisDVD got ahold of the final single and 2-disc DVD specs for Universal’s remake of KING KONG, which stars Jack Black, Naomi Watts and Adrien Brody. Set to be released March 28th, it looks like this:
Single disc Edition ($29.98)
- 2.35:1 anamorphic transfer
- Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound
- The Volkswagen Toureg & King Kong featurette
- Wish You Were Here featurette
2-disc Edition ($30.98)
- Introduction by Peter Jackson
- Post-Production Diaries 55-90 (nearly three hours of never-before-seen featurettes)
- Kong’s New York, 1933 (1930s New York comes alive in this fascinating piece that explores vaudeville, the skyscraper boom, the construction of the Empire State Building and more)
- Skull Island: A Natural History (travel with Peter Jackson and his crew and uncover the fascinating facts about the island’s mysterious origins, reclusive inhabitants and jawdropping creatures)
Now, you want to hear the bad news (or good news, depending on how hardcore you are)? Jackson is apparently working on an extended cut of the film to be released later this year, so again with the dreaded double (or triple) dipping. Oh well, at least you guys know ahead of time.
