LOS ANGELES, CA – Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you’re alive. If you don’t claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned... Tyler .

 

Clever, savagely witty and dark, Fight Club: 10 th Anniversary Edition , arrives on Blu-ray Disc (BD) November 17 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Based on the book by Chuck Palahniuk ( Choke ), Fight Club was directed by acclaimed filmmaker and Golden Globe-nominee *** David Fincher ( Se7en The Curious Case of Benjamin Button ) and stars Edward Norton ( 25 th Hour Primal Fear ) and Brad Pitt ( Mr. & Mrs. Smith Inglorious Basterds ), whose characters bond over a mutual disgust for corporate hypocrisy and find release in an eccentric , shocking new form of therapy – Fight Club .

 

The Fight Club: 10 th Anniversary Edition BD is packed full of punches with all-new bonus materials including two interactive featurettes – “A Hit In The Ear: Ren Klyce and the Sound Design of Fight Club ” which allows users to remix four key scenes themselves with the help of Oscar-nominated sound designer Ren Klyce; and “Insomniac Mode: I Am Jack’s Search Index,” giving viewers the ability to access any part of the disc’s extensive bonus material via interactive tools.

 

The BD also features behind-the-scenes with Fincher, Pitt and Norton as they accept the Guy Movie Hall of Fame honor for Fight Club at SPIKE TV'S 2009 GUYS CHOICE Awards, commentary by Fincher, Palahniuk, Pitt, Norton and Helena Bonham Carter, “Welcome To Fight Club” featurette, seven deleted scenes, a music video, photo gallery and much more, for the suggested retail price of $34.99 U.S. / $37.99 Canada. Prebook is October 21.

 

Synopsis 
A lonely, isolated thirty-something young professional in an unidentified, semi-stylized city, seeks an escape from his ordinary life with the help of a devious soap salesman.

Who's willing to bet FOX will have the video encode be AVC? I know it'll keep the heavy film grain/washed out color pallette too. Grain haters be damned! No damn way I'm selling my first release 2-Disc Digipak DVD since it's too nice, especially the booklet.
No cover art? It's only $22.99 for pre-order at Amazon.com

(Sorry about the hissy fit in the Warner Archives. Just set it so I can't post in any of those related forums. Same way I set personal boundaries for not going into the Bill Hunt sub-forum or any Harry Potter thread. I stand by my signature.)

Now I guess ALIEN3, SE7EN, THE GAME and PANIC ROOM now need to be released onto Blu-ray? I already own the HDDVD of THE GAME and I'm hoping Universal will get ahold of the Region 2 UK Special Edition DVD special features. If not, I'll have to pull a STARMAN. Meaning just getting a 2-Disc Blu case, custom cover and use the UK Special Edition DVD as the Special Features disc.
I'm also glad there won't be a "Digital Copy".

EDIT: It would've been nice to add a lossless isolated score track to the film much like Big Trouble in Little China recieved.
