Details On The Force Awakens 3D Blu-ray Release!


The trend of new and different releases of “Star Wars” movies continues with “The Force Awakens,” as a new Collectors Edition 3D Blu-ray release is coming this fall, with some new special features, deleted scenes, and what I’m most excited about, audio commentary from J.J. Abrams!

The four-disc 3D Collectors Edition sees release staring on October 31st, and will hit in the United States and Canada on November 15th. Here are all the details on the new special features and worldwide release dates from StarWars.com:

While it’s easy to say these new special features should have been included in the first Blu-ray release, I have no problem buying this new Collectors Edition for those new features, despite not caring about the 3D. I have bought multiple copies of the previous six films, and I’m not stopping now with Episode VII!

But how about you? Will you be getting this new Collectors Edition 3D release? Let us know!
