Constantine Street Date? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

MiddleEarthGirl · 04-17-2005, 04:48 AM

Is there a street date for the dVD yet? And are features known at all

TIA

Dilmo · 04-17-2005, 04:51 AM

As far as I know, no street date has been confirmed. If I come across any news, I'll post it here.

MiddleEarthGirl · 04-17-2005, 04:54 AM

thanks

**SilentBob** · 04-17-2005, 06:39 AM

Supposibly DVDAf.com (my collection site choice) has a date of July 19th going right now for the dvd. With a possible UNCUT VERSION also being released along side the theatrical cut.

MrMike · 04-18-2005, 02:37 AM

I heard 6/7, but that seems way to early for a Warner release. They usually take at least 5 months. I think Bob's date sounds better.

ChrisV784 · 04-18-2005, 03:31 PM

at blockbuster, we got 6/7. we'll see though. i really want this dvd. movie was actually entertaining.

MooglePorn · 04-18-2005, 07:48 PM

Movie was decent, but not great. I'll get it in some bargain deal someday.

Brikar99 · 04-18-2005, 07:51 PM

Yeah, it was OK. But I'd be very interested in whatever behind-the-scenes materials they've got. The effects for the Hell sequences were amazing.

Hell? Come to Texas.

DavidDVD has the following item:

"Warner Home Video Germany will release Constantine on June 10th. The film, starring Keanu Reeves and Rachel Weisz, will be available as a two-disc special edition featuring a 2.40:1 anamorphic transfer with English and German Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks. Extras will include an audio commentary (with director Francis Lawrence, producer Akiva Goldsman and screenwriters Frank Capello and Kevin Brodbin), deleted scenes (with optional commentary from Francis Lawrence), "The Production from Hell" and "The Depiction of Hell" documentaries, "Constantine's View on the Universe" and "Constantine's Genesis" featurettes, "A Look Ahead: The Power of Prediction" (with commentary by Lawrence), teaser and theatrical trailers, "Passive" music video by A Perfect Circle, and more. Retail is 19.99 Euros. Warner Home Video Spain also has released package art for three editions of Constantine."

If it's 6/10 in Germany, 6/7 is probably right for the US release. As far as "three editions", I'm guessing single disk bare bones, the two disk described above and two disk uncut, but that is based purely on the way things are being released now with one and two disk versions of everything.

And Dilmo, I am in Texas and things are pretty pleasent right now. You must mean Aug/Sept, when the thermometer locks in at 105 and won't let go. I just *love* those $350 electric bills.

I was referring to the politicians here, and from here. Though the temperature will get hot also.

MiddleEarthGirl · 04-19-2005, 08:30 AM

I would love to see how the effects for the Hell sequences were pulled off and I found the comic books after seeing the film so I'm offically hooked on the world of Constantine

MJZ · 04-19-2005, 09:49 AM

I haven't had chance to see this at the cinema yet, so I welcome its DVD release and even more so if there's an extended/unrated/uncut version.

highdef · 04-19-2005, 11:03 AM

I'm going to hold out a few months beyond that date for the HD-DVD release as CONSTANTINE is one of the 80 titles slated for release this fall. I saw the film in a DLP theatre and it looked stunning. Bring on the HD edition!

MooglePorn · 04-24-2005, 09:18 PM

The artwork was changed from the cool poster to a lame "action shot." There are no extras at all really, just some deleted scenes. The summary on the back is really corny.

Yay!

Oh, and Region 2 gets a 2-Disc SE from what I read on the "reply" section of that page, so it seems we're getting set up for the double dip again. Must have worked out for Fox so well WB wants to do it.

raptors661 · 04-24-2005, 10:56 PM

the cover art is alright, no floating heads

It's not bad bad, but I like the poster art more. A lot more.

This is REALLY pissing me off.

And it's not because I can't wait.
It's because Region 1 is getting played around with. My ability to get the "full version" of a movie on DVD is in jeopardy because of sheer corporate greed, whereas other regions don't have this problem (this recent problem).

MiddleEarthGirl · 04-25-2005, 07:57 AM

Can someone link to the poster art?

I agree... I'm not an extras guy, so it really shouldn't matter to me, but it just pisses me off they're playing games with us.

Here's the XBOX game cover... roughly the same, though a little cropped, which I think looks even better. Imagine it without the XBOX banner and I think it's a cooler case. Maybe I just like subtlety.

MooglePorn · 04-25-2005, 11:17 AM

Ahem...

MrMike · 04-25-2005, 01:18 PM

I hope this isn't a new trend with WB. First, Ocean's Twelve and now this. I think I'll go ahead and set myself up for a double dip. The cover is hideous as well.

Dilmo · 04-25-2005, 01:32 PM

From Davis DVD:

MrMike · 04-25-2005, 01:41 PM

The cover should have been the X-box cover Moogle attached or something like this

MiddleEarthGirl · 04-25-2005, 07:25 PM

Looks like CONSTANTINE has joined the list of soon to be double dipped in my collection

MJZ · 04-26-2005, 09:54 AM

I agree with what's been said about R1, I live in the UK and don't want to buy our R2 SEs because I'm not keen on PAL DVDs and the speed-up, so I have to wait for R1s too (we got a two disc version of Man on Fire which I passed on).

In the UK we have different cover art for the video game:

MrE26 · 04-26-2005, 06:13 PM

I saw this at the cinema & was a little underwhelmed. I'm not really familiar with the comics but the movie was decent enough but nothing spectacular. Having said that, i'll probably pick this up at some point.

If you're not keen on PAL discs, R3s are a good alternative. They tend to get the same extras as we do except they're NTSC. CD Wow is a good site to order them from, they're doing the 2-disc Constantine SE for £8.99.

Crow331 · 04-28-2005, 12:40 PM

Now that he has been kicked off American Idol, his street date has been moved up

Dilmo · 04-29-2005, 12:45 AM

Street date is 7/19/05. Sorry it took so long MiddleEarthGirl.

I got a few R3 NTSC releases and thanks for the information; I started a topic in Off-World about non-R1 versions before I checked back in this thread.

Dilmo: Just got the PM and thanks for the date update

Looks like someone at Warner has been reading this thread

Brikar99 · 05-03-2005, 01:38 AM

Good.

reapersaurus · 05-03-2005, 01:55 AM

"Whoa."

They actually changed their plans?
That's quite refreshing - I can let my hate go, now.

raptors661 · 05-03-2005, 03:49 AM

i will definately be picking up the 2 disk edition

MiddleEarthGirl · 05-03-2005, 05:35 AM

I'm going to buy the 2 disc version,so that is good news for me

Warner has done the same exact thing a few times recently... Examples aren't springing to mind, but I know this is so. The announce the single disc, then boom, the collector's set the same day. I don't really know the marketing strategy behind that, but whatever.

Anyway, despite my usual complaint of "releasing a 1 and 2 disc at the same time allows them to charge way too much for a 2 disc" complaint, I'm happy to have the definitive version of Constantine right off the bat.

MrMike · 05-03-2005, 01:15 PM

Thank you Warner. I can now quit my bitching unless they release a director's cut or the ultimate demon edition. I don't think they will since Warner does a good job of not double dipping but you never know.
