Universal Studios Home
Entertainment wasted no time in moving director Jean-Marc Vallée’s Best Picture
nominee (along with Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor nominations for
Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto respectively), Dallas Buyer’s Club, to
the home entertainment market place.
Within two hours of the
pre-dawn Oscar nominations news was circulated that DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo
Pack (with UltraViolet) editions would be joining the previously announced About
Time on Feb. 4 release calendar.
The ARR works out to just
95 days and the domestic box office take currently stands at $16.7 million …
the film should get some much-needed action at the local multiplexes as a
result of the six Oscar nominations (the annual show will be broadcast on Mar.
2, so the timing is spot-on).
Bonus goodies or this
biopic tale about AIDS-infected Ron Woodroof’s (McConaughey) efforts to beat
both the disease and the FDA bureaucracy that insists on giving the wrong drugs
to others infected with the disease are limited to deleted scenes and the
featurette titled, “A Look Inside the Dallas Buyers Club.”
Also getting a
Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack (with UltraViolet) and stand-alone DVD release date this
week from Universal Studios Home Entertainment is director Gary Fleder’s
crime-revenge thriller, Homefront.
The street date is Mar.
11, which yields an ARR of 102 days.
Ticket sales at the local multiplex currently stand at $20.1 million.
Jason Statham stars as
Phil Broker, a former DEA agent, whose path inadvertently crosses that of a
local drug dealer named Morgan “Gator” Bodine (James Franco) when a seemingly
routine bullying issue involving his young daughter at school reveals his
past. Things quickly escalate into a
life and death situation as Gator unleashes his minions to do away with the
offending Broker.
