- The DVD Review website shocked us today with news that we hadn’t heard a peep on yet. Apparently, there’s yet another Dogma DVD in the works. We’ve just clarified with Lions Gate that this is NOT TRUE. Still, for posterity’s sake, here’s what DVD Review ran today:
For those of you who just can’t get enough Kevin Smith, (and I know you’re out there), Lions Gate Entertainment has announced a third version of the film to hit shelves this fall.
After a fairly decent but barren initial release of the film for the casual viewer, Columbia released the film last year as an excellent special two disc special edition with enough legitimate features to keep anyone occupied. The one missing element was a controversial documentary explaining and in some ways defending the film to its detractors. In the end, the doc was deemed more controversial than the film itself and pulled last minute. The documentary has been restored for this new version and the film itself has been slightly lengthened, most likely with footage previously seen in the deleted scenes section of the existing DVD set. The new DVD will be made available both as the theatrical version or the lengthened version.
So once again, Dogma will hit shelves, this time with two releases from Lions Gate in the fall and with a suggested retail price of $24.95 each.
It might have been nice to own a copy of what we assume would have been the Cannes cut of Dogma on DVD, but the idea was a bit out there. This was probably a miscommunication about the Vulgar DVD that someone mixed up. Anyway, that should set the record straight there. Thanks to Sean at Lions Gate for clearing the air!
