November 3 can't get here soon enough! Admittedly I have the complete Season One already burned to DVD and nicely stored in custom cases but their viewing quality is only passable at best and they serve the mere purpose of staying my fix until the real deal arrives on Blu-Ray.
Who cares if I don't have a Blu-Ray player yet? This is the reason to buy one. (PS3 anyone?)
Honestly, I think I am as excited about having the full-roster of HD episodes as I am about all the bonus features that come with it.
- Seven Director's Cut Episodes:
- Rising Malevolence
- Shadow of Malevolence
- Lair of Grievous
- Rookies
- Storm Over Ryloth
- Innocents of Ryloth
- Liberty on Ryloth
- 22 Episodic Featurettes that go behind-the-scenes with Supervising Director Dave Filoni and crew about the making-of each episode
- Spectacular 64 page production journal that includes early sketches, artist notes, and concept art from each episode from Season One
- The Jedi Temple Archives (BD Exclusive) - An extensive database exploring test footage, early concept art, 3-D character and object turnarounds and early animation. The Archives is a rare look at the assets in various stages of creation for The Clone Wars, with a wealth of surprises and never-before seen moments sprinkled throughout.
I'm also very pleased to see that there are director's cuts of my two favorite episodes; Rookies and Lair of Greivous. They are by far the best of the bunch although the three-part Ryloth series is an exceptionally well-done story arc as well.
I can't wait!
