DVD & Blu-ray Release Report, Ralph Tribbey
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has made it official, Oct. 24 is the street date for a three-SKU release of writer/director Tony Leondis’ CGI animated summer theatrical hit, The Emoji Movie.

The ARR is a quick-to-market 88 days and ticket sales, despite some pretty harsh major media reviews, chimed in at an impressive $82.6 million (you’d have to guess that the critics and their snarky remarks were pretty much ignored on this one).

Planned for release are DVD, Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Combo Pack editions.

As to bonus goodies, Leondis provides commentary, there’s bonus short film titled “Puppy!,” seven production featurettes — “Jailbreak: Decoded: The Untold Story,” “Express Yourself: Meet the Cast,” “Girls Can Code!” “Choreographing Emoji With Matt Steffanina,” “Creating the World Inside Your Phone” and “Bringing Emojis to Life” — Ricky Reed’s “Good Vibrations” is presented as both a dance-along and music video with lyrics, plus there are two “how to” videos … “How to Draw Poop” and “How to Draw Gene.”
