BLU-RAY TUESDAY: Disney's 'Oz' Sees Green, 'Hansel & Gretel' Battle Fairy-Tale Witches on Blu-Ray
The first major blockbuster of 2013 makes its way on Blu-Ray this Tuesday, roughly three months after its theatrical release in early March. Oz the Great and Powerful, starring James Franco, Rachel Weisz and Mila Kunis, is set before the 1939 classic when Dorothy arrives in the world of wizards, witches and singing Munchkins exploring how the Wizard of Oz became the mysterious floating head ruling from the confines of Emerald City.
Oz the Great and Powerful is released in multiple formats on Blu-Ray including a Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy combo pack, a Blu-Ray, Digital Copy combo pack and a Blu-Ray 3D, Digital Copy combo pack.
Also coming out today in various versions is Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, starring Jeremy Renner (The Avengers) and Gemma Arterton (Quantum of Solace). This version of Hansel & Gretel expands upon the classic fairy tale about a brother and sister who defeated a witch. Now as adults, the brother-sister pair have made it a career out of killing witches threatening vulnerable villages. Loaded with stylized violence and gore, Hansel & Gretel is meant for the same mature audience, who saw last year's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters is released in multiple formats including a Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy, UltraViolet Unrated combo pack as well as a 3D Limited Edition with the same discs and features. Target is releasing an exclusive Digibook for both the 2D and 3D releases.
Summit Entertainment streets Dwayne Johnson's Snitch today as well. In Snitch, Johnson's character goes undercover to take down a drug cartel after his son had been wrongfully arrested. Snitch is available as a Blu-Ray, Digital Copy, UltraViolet combo pack.
In addition to Oz the Great and Powerful, Disney has brought back several of its animated catalog titles including Atlantis: 2-Movie Collection, Lilo & Stitch: 2-Movie Collection and The Emperor's New Groove: 2-Movie Collection.
