Heroes DVD News

[Superboy2]

Smallville could put more commentaries, but they are lazy. Heroes has a bigger cast and they are ding every episode. I'll bet its seven discs.

[chrisxs5]

That would be OK with me. But that brings up another question:
How much would be too much? Most of the time series DVD release at higher prices. I would expect these will go for around 49 to start. Which I would pay but I dont think I can afford more than 65. I would prefer around 30-35.

[chrisxs5]

In an interview with Tim Kring, he says that In His Own Image will be included on the first season DVD set.

[Superboy2]

Its not a HBO or Showtime show, so I doubt it would be more than 50. Funny, I could pay 45 for 22 episodes of Smallville, yet pay 65 or probably more for Sopranos, Dexter or The Tudors. And those are all 12 episodes. Kind of getting jipped, but oh well.

[chrisxs5]

Thats why I asked. When Friends was released you could pick them up for 45 and now 25-30. Same with SV, I got Season 1 for 45 and now my wally-world has it for 34. But my Best Buy has it for 48!

[Superboy2]

Best buy has most shows on DVD, but they overprice most of it. I only go there if I have a gift card or no other place has a show I want.

[chrisxs5]

I only go there to find stuff no one else has also! They had season 3 of 4400 for 38, but I held out and found it at wal-mart for 29.

Heroes returns to the NBC lineup on January 22


got this news from tvshowsondvd.com

Thanks so much for the heads up.

I heard that Heroes is coming to dvd in Sept but I also read August. Be good to get some kinda confirmation.

[MidgardDragon]

Does anyone know if they plan to include the graphic novels on the DVDs? That would be awesome and pretty much cement me as "buying it!"

My wish list for Heroes DVD:

Graphic Novels
Making Of Documentary
Commentary on the major episode in each mini-arc (Save the Cheerleader, Are You On The List, Time to Save the World)
Interviews with cast and crew
Trailers
Music Video (I love DVD's that have a music video made for the movie, they need to do that for the first season of Heroes too)

The latest news dated today from tvshowsondvd.com makes it official that the release date will be Aug 28 for both DVD and HD-DVD box sets.

Universal hasn't provided box art or extras yet, but it will be a 7-disc set, 1.78:1 widescreen, english Dolby digital 5.1 audio, etc. Suggested retail price (SRP) for DVD set will be $59.98, $99.98 for HD-DVD.

Retailers generally sell sets initially at 10 to 40 percent off the SRP, depending on the retailer. After they've been on the market for a year or so, the price might drop to over 40 percent or more off SRP.

tvshowsondvd.com just added the artwork for the box cover on their news page.

[Superboy2]
