Spider-Man 3 DVD Details
Spidey comes home on October 30th!
by IGN Staff
August 3, 2007 - Spider-Man 3 is coming to DVD on October 30th, jam-packed with over six hours of fresh bonus material, including bloopers and over 10 featurettes.
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment announced today that the blockbuster flick will be released in a slew of different versions -- naturally, so you can collect them all. Fans can expect a single-disc release, a two-disc Special Edition release, PSP, and a three-pack DVD release which will include Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 on DVD with collectible O-Ring packaging. You'll also be able to scoop up the Spider-Man High Definition Trilogy, a three-pack release of all three films on Blu-ray. Suh-weet!
All the cool extras will, of course, be included on the two-disc Spider-Man 3 Blu-ray High-Def and two-disc Special Edition DVD versions.
Included will be six hours of bonus materials, the highlight being three villain-centric behind-the-scenes featurettes. They are: "Grains of Sand," which follows the creation of Sandman by the FX gurus of Sony Pictures Imageworks; "Re-Imagining the Goblin," exploring the changes in the New Goblin character; and "Covered in Black," a feature about Venom.
There are also three stunt featurettes: "Hanging On…Gwen Stacy & the Collapsing Floor," which features stunt coordinator Scott Rogers dissecting the dangerous Bryce Dallas Howard sequence; "Fighting, Flying & Driving - The Stunts," with Stunt Coordinator/2nd Unit Director Dan Bradley and Stunt Coordinator Scott Rogers; and "Wall of Water," about the creation of one of the biggest stunts in the flick.
Additionally, the bonus material includes bloopers, a Snow Patrol music video, and two audio commentary tracks with cast and filmmakers.
