Batman v. Superman Set to Get Groundbreaking 100GB 4-K Blu-Ray Release


Inside CI reports that Zack Snyder's Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice will be the first film from a major studio to get a 100 gigabyte triple layer disk Blu-Ray release. The large capacity of the disk is reportedly needed to encompass Snyder's three-hour "Ultimate" directors cut of the movie. The ultra-HD set will be two disks and will also feature the regular theatrical version of the movie. (Read David Gigg's review of the theatrical version here).

The DVD release will have several special features as well. There will be a featurette on of each of the movie's three heroes: Superman: Complexity and Truth, Batman: Austerity and Rage and Wonder Woman: Grace and Power. Additional features include: The Warrior, The Myth, The Wonder (a featurette that will delve into the history of Wonder Woman in anticipation for her upcoming movie), Uniting the World's Finest, Gods and Men: A Meeting of the Giants, Accelerating Design: The New Batmobile, The Might and the Power of a Punch, Batcave: Legacy of the Lair, The Empire of Luthor and Save the Bats. Whew, that's a lot!

The DVD will go on sale on July 19th in the US and August 1st in the UK. The list price for the set is 44,95, but it's currently available for pre-order at Amazon for 26.96.

I'm glad the DVD makers didn't skimp on the features for such a big release and the Wonder Woman featurette sounds especially interesting. I'm curious whether the 3-hour version will be better than the one we got in cinemas or if added length will excacerbate the film's problems. What do you think of the DVD release? Are you excited?
