"The Iron Giant" Special Edition DVD

FINALLY!

Warner Home Video (WHV) is proud to announce a special edition DVD of the timeless animated classic "The Iron Giant" on September 7, 2004. Loaded with all-new special features -- including 8 "never-before-seen" scenes, including an alternate opening, all with director commentary, 13 mini-documentaries highlighting key sequences and a featurette, "The Voice Of The Giant," hosted Vin Diesel.

Additional special features on the DVD include scene-specific commentaries by filmmakers; a motion gallery of original animation; a letter from Ted Hughes, author of the original book upon which the film was based; DVD ROM access to the original web site; and "Easter eggs" revealing the behind-the-scenes filmmaking process. This DVD version of "The Iron Giant" is presented in an all-new digital transfer, a 16x9 widescreen format, English and French Dolby 5.1 surround sound audio and has English, French and Spanish subtitles.

Now if only they'll re-release the toys too. I'd really rather not have to shell out $100 for an Ultimate Iron Giant.
