Warner Home Video has
selected Mar. 19 as the street date for New Line Cinema film production of
director Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
The ARR is a
quick-to-market 95 days and the current box office count stands at $296.2
million in domestic ticket sales.
A magnificent extension
to The
Lord of the Rings series and with its box office performance the two
following sequels — The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Christmas season of this
year) and The Hobbit: There and Back Again (currently projected for a
release during the summer of 2014) — should have eager audiences lined up
and waiting for this film trilogy adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien’s The
Hobbit.
As to SKU composition for
the Mar. 19 home entertainment launch, Warner Home Video has three viewing
options planned. There will be a 3D/2D
Blu-ray-DVD Combo Pack, a Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack and a double-disc DVD edition
for fans to choose from. All three SKUs
will include UltraViolet.
As to bonus goodies, all
three SKUs will include roughly two-hours of material from Peter Jackson’s
Production Videos — “Start of Production,” “Location Scouting,” “Filming in 3D,”
“Post-production Overview” and the “Wellington World Premiere.”
