Title: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: Darkness on Feb 14, 2008, 07:07:56 PM

It never rains but it pours. Fangoria have got the AvPR DVD cover art and details of the various DVD releases in the US. There will be single-disc releases of the Rated (94mins) and Unrated (101mins) cuts as well as a two-disc set of the Unrated cut.

20080214_01

Check out Fangoria for a full list of features. The upshot is that it doesn’t include the Deleted Scenes in the UK version nor some of the featurettes. Expect Fox to release another version at some point. The Blu-Ray version will feature both cuts and will also include all the special features on the two disc set as well as “an exclusive Weyland-Yutani Archives picture-in-picture reference guide to the warring alien races”. The single DVDs will be $29.98, the two-disc set is $34.98, the Blu-ray is $39.98. These will go on sale in the US on April 14. Thanks to JK for the news.

Update: The cover art for the single-DVD release and the Blu-Ray set can be seen on DVDActive.

Not the same unrated version like AVP. I hope not.

Hopefully the UK will get the same version of the film (extreme unrated).

I think UK get a director's cut version.

Awesome cover but me thinks ill wait for unrated version.  In the meantime ill read the AvP omnibus vol 1 and 2 and imagine how cool the movies couldve been.........and how $45 just for one omnibus is a real bitch.

Its a good thing they didn't just make the poster with earth on it the cover for the DVD.  That would have sucked, and I like this one better.   ;D     ;D

the cover is ok? but i dont like the font they used same as the first film    :(   they should have used the white alien font like on the posters.  What version is uk getting then? and yes i agree that is a bit much for a DVD? fox are going to make big bucks on this?    :-\

I like the fact they have put the pred-alien on the cover, but i dont like the font and where they have put the requiem, the white alien font used in the posters and film was good! they should have used that! Cant wait for this film to come out on DVD I hope the UK edition gets the extended/unrated version aswell!  Bring on AVP3 strause!!!   ;)

Post by: dimelives on Feb 15, 2008, 10:41:47 AM
I'd still like to know if the 2-disc unrated set is going to contain the theatrical version as well (like the AVP1 unrated set). They never list that detail with DVDs.

UK blu-ray release May 19th:  http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/5175482/Alien-Vs-Predator-Requiem/Product.html  I presume that's when the DVD will be released too. Also looks like there's gonna be a double pack with the first film coming out.

no deleted scenes   why couldn't  give us deleted scenes.

Post by: bobcunk on Feb 15, 2008, 11:47:33 AM
i hope it come with both versions and the deleted scenes. but it might just be the single disk version with a bonus disc.
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: fluxcap on Feb 15, 2008, 11:56:04 AM
No 19min of deleted scenes? I'll wait for the sure to be forthcoming "Unrated Extended" edition.
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: thegodfather on Feb 15, 2008, 12:19:15 PM
why no deleted scenes?  Iam gonna ask thedigitalbits guys
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: dachande89 on Feb 15, 2008, 01:47:46 PM
Well this looks awesome, but I really want more of those deleted scenes to be available.
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: darcevil on Feb 15, 2008, 01:57:46 PM
Badass dvd cover. If anything I'll buy it for that alone.
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: RidgeTop on Feb 15, 2008, 02:10:44 PM
hopefully there will be more than one cover, maybe one with Wolf perhaps?
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: Gort Pred on Feb 15, 2008, 02:26:05 PM
Well if the one were looking at is the unrated version...don't you think those deleted scenes are in the film then, not an extra?
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: dimelives on Feb 15, 2008, 02:57:49 PM
Remember the Strauses saying there was around 30 min cut for the theatrical version? What's reinserted is--what did they say--about 6-8 minutes worth of that. So the remaining 19 min were things like the skinned Predators, the little kids in the hospital, and other things that they either didn't want back in the movie, or they didn't have the money to complete them for the movie. Either way, that 19 min remainder is stuff that WON'T be reinserted into the movie. So if it isn't included as a deleted scenes bonus, then we ain't gonna see it at all (not with this release, at least).

this isnt worth 30 bucks

Post by: Newsfop on Feb 15, 2008, 03:43:44 PM
Don't forget that it will be on a discount the first week it's released at a lot of stores, plus Amazon.com always sells stuff cheaper. Don't just look at one venue. Remember, you can always get ripped off at Borders and FYE compared to the other places.

Post by: wmmvrrvrrmm on Feb 15, 2008, 05:35:42 PM
most double disc DVD sets in the UK cost about the equivalent of $40 when newly out. The cover is certainly an improvement on the cinema poster but the cover certainly doesn't have the wonder of the Alien poster with the symbolic egg. I like the spiraling queen chestburster image for Alien 3, that spiraling form retained some echo of the idea of a visual metaphor for DNA. But there's nothing like that going on in AVP:R or AVP for that matter
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: bobcunk on Feb 15, 2008, 05:55:47 PM
il only get it if it has both versions and the deleted scenes. i already have 2 copies predator 2, avp, and videodrome.

Post by: Wmmvrrvrrmm on Feb 16, 2008, 04:05:57 AM
as a photograph, this Predalien photo despite the fact that it has a normal alien tale is exciting, just as I thought the special creature publicity photos for AVP were exciting, I'm sure you know the ones I'm talking about
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: Krycek on Feb 16, 2008, 04:53:13 AM
The photo of the predalien looks just like that painting of the predalien by the guy who designed the very similar predalien concept. I don't remember his name though.

Maybe it'll be featured in one of the 2 "making of AVPR" documentaries.

"Extreme Unrated Set"? They really seem to be milking the hardcore claims dry on this one film.

DoomRulz I like the covers but I don't like the AvP font. It reminds me too much of Anderson's '04 mess _______________________  I agree! the font sucks! they should have stuck with the white alien font they used in the posters    :-\  
Title: Re: AvPR DVD Cover Art / Details
Post by: Krycek on Feb 17, 2008, 04:50:35 PM
The white font with the red "R" really reminded me of the of the original Alien movies and they should have kept that on the cover and in the opening credits of AVPR

holy sh*t!!! i heard that AVP-R sucks but so what it's way better than AVP....and the 2-disc cover rocks!!!! i stared at that predalien for like 3 minutes thinking about what it will look like with my DVD collecytion. But that cover is only goanna sucker ppl in by buying the 2-disc set....and the price is way too high...the reason is because its the cover art, the second disc and the extra digital copy
