Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom and Last Crusade Debut Individually for the First Time on DVD, With All-New, Exclusive Bonus Features on Each Movie

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (March 3, 2008) – According to the American Film Institute, he’s the greatest action-adventure hero of all time – and his unforgettable exploits can be relished by fans old and new as never before when all three INDIANA JONES movies debut as individual Special Edition DVDs and in an all-new box set on May 13.

Released by Lucasfilm Ltd. and Paramount Home Entertainment, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Special Edition DVDs boast all-new, exclusive bonus features that dig deeper into the making of these cinematic milestones than ever before. All three were originally restored and remastered in 2003. Created with fans of all ages in mind, the bonus features provide never-before-seen explorations of the making of these classic movies and showcase the characters, action and extraordinary visual effects that have made the movies indelible cinematic treasures.

Each film makes its DVD debut just days before the highly anticipated return of the “Man in the Hat” in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

“An entire generation of movie lovers will get to see these classic films in a digital format that makes them even more amazing than when they were first in theaters,” said Howard Roffman, Vice President of Lucasfilm Ltd. “These new, individual DVDs are a fantastic way to introduce young audiences to the unforgettable, action-packed adventures of the most daring archaeologist in the world.”

Directed by Steven Spielberg from stories by executive producer George Lucas, the three INDIANA JONES movies earned six Academy Awards® and nearly $1.2 billion worldwide. From the groundbreaking excitement of Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) to the sinister mysteries of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) and the father-son adventure of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), the heroic Dr. Jones continues to delight audiences with his thrilling on-screen exploits.

Previously available only in a trilogy box set, the three films of THE ADVENTURES OF INDIANA JONES were restored and remastered to deliver an exceptional viewing experience to existing enthusiasts and a whole new generation of fans. All-new bonus content delves into the making of the legendary series as the filmmakers and cast look back and a new world of adventure opens up with Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and others offering hints about what to expect in the newest installment.

Sorry, Paramount & LFL, no Blu-Ray equals no double dip money from me. Nice covers though.

And on the KOTCS front, here's some magazine scans at: www.nibenay.com

These double dip DVDs have become the enemy of the fan boy's wallet. I mean, these features sound great and the covers are certainly a lot better than the last time around (surprising, as I expected some kind of horrendous Photoshop art like the Star Wars covers), but fuck that. Those magazine scans are great.

What, no Blu-Ray?

No, I think the first box set I bought 3 years ago is just fine, thank you.

Ditto.

...and the covers of the original 3-box series look WAAAY better in any case. I'll wait for the 4-disk box-set-blu-ray-re-release

What a mouthful.

Apparently there's a new shot in the HD versions of ROTLA that aired on USA and Sci-Fi Channels in the last couple weeks. The shot of the car going off the cliff in the truck chase in ROTLA is now CG. It's not on the new double dip DVD. Will it be on Blu-ray this fall?

[flash width=425 height=355]http://www.youtube.com/v/BIH46G9_3SU&hl=en[/flash]

every previous version of raiders has had a faint blue line down the centre of the print in certain shots even the recent HD broadcasts (def in the UK broadcast cant comment on US or oz!) its most noticeable in the bar scene with belloq and indy

anyway i got the new dvd set and the line is gone! so if ur as nitpicky as i am its worth an upgrade but i am so itching for the bluray now i kniow they have remastered it again since 2003

btw the truck shot still looks like the previous one weird! the hd version on bbchd had the blue line but the new cg shot and the new dvd has no blue line and the original truck shot!
