It has been confirmed today that Avatar will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in the UK on April 26th 2010. As yet there is no word of a release date for the 3-D version of the film which will probably be announced when 3-D technology becomes mainstream and more affordable in the home, so it could be a while yet.

UP Blu-ray UK Release
Posted at 5:06 pm | No Comments


UP
Dir: Pete Docter

Pixar’s latest film Up is released on Blu-ray today in the UK. I was looking forward to seeing this as I missed it at the cinema. Written and directed by Monsters Inc. director and veteran Toy Story animator Pete Docter Also includes Pixar’s latest animated short Partly Cloudy

An interesting section in the making of documentary, describes how the story department fleshed out Carl and Ellie’s developing relationship. One idea shows them trading ’punches’ throughout the years to gain one-upmanship over each other! The idea was unsurprisingly discarded as the ‘cross your heart’ concept was deemed more prominent. It just shows that Pixar develop their stories to the full, exploring every possible avenue, while going through many rewrites before deciding on the final draft.

If you are interested in animation in any way at all, CG or otherwise, I recommend that you buy Coraline on Blu-ray. The film is a masterpiece of animation.

WALL.E
Dir: Andrew Stanton

Released today in the UK, WALL.E on Blu-ray which features some great extras, including Pixar’s latest great animated shorts Presto and BURN.E

One of the most facinating extras on the disc is the part where the director, Andrew Stanton totally re-writes the ending (the switch between WALL.E and EVE) and due to his ‘gut feeling’ has the whole team doing their bit till all hours of the morning to get the film finished in time for the cinema release.
