The Forbidden Kingdom DVD, Blu-ray

June 24, 2008

Jackie Chan and Jet Li together? A recipe for action--lots of action.

Lionsgate will release $52 million-grossing The Forbidden Kingdom, starring the two martial arts masters, on DVD and Blu-ray Sept. 9 (prebook Aug. 13). Blu-ray will be priced at $39.99 for a two-disc set and standard-def will offer a single-disc for $29.95 and a two-disc special edition at $34.98.

The Blu-ray and two-DVD versions include digital copy.

The two-disc standard-def set also offers:

·       Audio commentary with director Rob Minkoff and writer John Fusco      
·      “The Kung Fu Dream Team” featurette
·      “Dangerous Beauty” featurette
·      “Discovering China” featurette
·      “Filming in Chinawood” featurette
·      “Monkey King and The Eight Immortals” featurette
·      Blooper reel
·      Deleted scenes with audio commentary by Rob Minkoff and John Fusco
·      Pre-Visualization featurette – takes the viewer from the storyboards through pre-production animation footage to the final finished look for selected scenes throughout the film, accompanied by commentary from Rob Minkoff

The Blu-ray version adds:

·      MOLOG™ – network connected community and interactive movie blog tool set

Sounds interesting.

And does The Forbidden Kingdom have lots of action? It's about a kung fu-obsessed teen joining up with a band of martial arts warriors to rescue the imprisoned Monkey King. You be the judge.
