The Chronicles of Narnia - April 4th confirmed (1 Viewer)

Elijah Sullivan · Jan 12, 2006

It's been officially announced to retailers that The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe will be released on April 4.

It'll be the usual - widescreen and fullscreen versions, and then for a few extra bucks, you can get a widescreen "Collector's Edition" - that probably means a bonus disc while the regular edition goes bonus-less and almost feature-less. The Coll.Ed. will run you about $5.00 more.

I'm expecting Kong to be announced very soon - it's supposed to street a week or two before Narnia.

Cheers.

I'm ALL over the Narnia dvd.

David Williams · Jan 12, 2006

Definitely the CE for me. Best movie I saw last year (with Fantastic Four running a close second). I can't wait for Prince Caspian!

The Collector's Edition should come with some cupcakes...

MatthewLouwrens · Jan 12, 2006

Um - maybe I'm forgetting something, but why cupcakes?
Now, Turkish Delight would make sense, but I can't remember any cupcakes in the story...

Craig is talking about the Chronicles of Narnia short that SNL did a few weeks ago. Very funny stuff.

MatthewLouwrens · Jan 12, 2006

Oh, OK. Thanks.
Any chance of a quick explanation of the joke? Or is it one that just loses the humour in the translation?

Brandon Conway · Jan 12, 2006

Just watch it yourself, Matthew.

The DVD should include the SNL skit as a bonus or hidden feature. Narnia wanted to the next LOTR, and those discs had great, irreverant comedy bits on them. Unfortunately, I don't have faith that Disney will be hip enough to include it.

Ricardo C · Jan 13, 2006

Any word on whether it'll be released on BluRay as well?

Fred Mitchell · Jan 13, 2006

Any news as to whether it'll have the comparible depth to the LOTR EE discs?

Shane_M · Jan 13, 2006

This is one setup I'll be happy to own. If Disney's smart they'll include the Chronic-WHAT-cles of Narnia on there.

I heard their will be a scene where Frodo gets bitch-slapped by the talking Beaver.

Jeff Cooper · Jan 13, 2006

King Kong is rumored to be 3/28 but is not official yet (source: Digital Bits).

Brandon Conway · Jan 13, 2006

I highly doubt it.

Rob T · Jan 13, 2006

I would love it if Narnia got similar releases to what LOTR got.

MatthewLouwrens · Jan 13, 2006

Thanks, Brandon. Amusing.

Larry Sutliff · Jan 14, 2006

I'll definitely wait for a High Def version of this. I just hope it doesn't take too long, I really liked this movie.

Adam Lenhardt · Jan 15, 2006

The two-disc art is fantastic.

Matt Leigh · Jan 15, 2006

Four and a bit months is pretty quick isn't it? Soon the window will shrink even more and I won't even have to go to the theater.
