Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release a 35th Anniversary Edition of Wizards this March. Directed by Ralph Bakshi (Fire and Ice), this animated adventure centers on kindly sorcerer Avatar as he navigates through a post-apocalyptic Earth.
From Fox's official press release:
"Avatar's evil brother, Blackwolf, dominates Scortch, a bleak land of goblins and wraiths. When the power-hungry Blackwolf attacks Montagar [a rainbow paradise inhabited by elves and fairies], Avatar, accompanied only by a spirited young woman and a courageous elf, must enter the darkness of Scortch to save his world."
Fox's 35th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray presents the film in its 1.85:1 original aspect ratio with a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track. The Digibook release also contains the following supplements:
Digibook packaging has 24-pages of artwork, some never-before-seen
It seems to be missing the commentary from the UK Region Free release. Hopefully this isn't the case. I'll be getting this copy anyways. Hopefully the PQ/AQ was treated with some care.
As well as the commentary it seems to be missing the featurette and teaser/ trailers. If they are too lazy to port over the extras from the DVD then I don't how much much confidence I have in the trasfer.
