Aliens Anthology Update

Article courtesy of ign.com.

You've heard the rumblings and rumors, but now we can officially confirm it: The Alien Anthology is coming to Blu-ray domestically on Oct. 26. The U.K. will get it one day earlier on Oct. 25 and Australia on Nov. 3. Read on for more about the all-new bonus material and Fox's special plans for Comic-Con.

Pretty much since the launch of the Blu-ray format, fans have been wondering when Fox might bring the kickass Alien Quadrilogy box set to high definition. It has consistently made lists of most wanted Blu-rays, including IGN's own. But now the wait for the announcement is over, and the real waiting begins.

According to Fox, the four Alien films have been "reinvigorated for an intense Blu-ray high-definition viewing experience." It will take advantage of Blu-ray technology by incorporating the MU-TH-UR Mode, an interactive feature that lets you access the special features on all six discs and provides an index of all available content. And what does that content include? About 60 hours of special features and over 12,000 images, including material from the legendary early '90s LaserDisc release, the "Legacy" release and, of course, the Quadrilogy.

There will also be new, previously unreleased content, such as original screen tests of Sigourney Weaver prior to filming the original Alien, unseen deleted scenes, the previously unseen original cut of "Wreckage and Rage: The Making of Alien3" and more.

I don't even know what that means. I worry for the next generation of thick-headed ignoramuses who can't even string a sentence together.

anyone else think that that figure that comes with it could be an awesome lamp that glows. I hope it is.

[Dark velvet]

i dont think so because y only a cover or resine o something like that............
it would be great if that eggs glow, that never cross my mind.

The egg is really badly made and the light doesn't light up really well at all. It's a shame because the model is fantastic, but poor quality, lightweight materials, and a really awful paintjob really takes the edge off this.

Limited edition though, so it would hold it's value well (despite your concerns over quality).

I was lucky enough to watch a couple of deleted scenes from ALIENS and I was like how is this possible ALIENS scenes I have not seen I am in heaven!
