AVP and AVP:R
Fox Home Entertainment has announced that they will release 'Alien vs Predator: Requiem' for Blu-ray on April 15th, day-and-date with the DVD release. Additionally, Fox will reissue the original 'Alien vs Predator' movie on the same day as a Unrated Collector's Edition release. Fans will have the choice of purchasing the films separately (for those who don't want to upgrade their existing 'Alien vs Predator' Blu-ray) or as a two-pack.
'Alien vs Predator: Requiem' will present both the rated and unrated versions of the film via seamless branching in 2.35:1 1080p AVC on a BD-50. Audio will come via a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track. Extras include audio commentaries, digital copy, five behind-the-scenes featurettes, and seven still design galleries. Exclusive to the Blu-ray release is the "Weyland-Yutani Archives" picture-in-picture reference guide which allows viewers access into the movie-based corporation's top-secret computer mainframe to discover information on all things Alien and Predator. This feature will require use of a BonusView player or PS3.
Specs for 'Alien vs Predator Unrated Collector's Edition' have not been released at this time, but we do know that this film will feature the "Alien vs Predator vs You" game we reported during CES. We'll be sure to update this post when we receive the specs for this release.

Re: AVP and AVP:R
Will pick this up even though I was thoroughly disappointed by it at the cinema (damn the total completist in me!), hoping that as per usual, once the wait of expectations has gone, it will be a lot better 2nd, 3rd, 4th time round (just like the first AVP film). Now I know there's no plot, suspense or characters to get bogged with, I can just concentrate on the gore (which was about the only part of it which was better than the first film).......
Although some websites are disputing the special edition of the first AVP film announced for the same day (from High Def Digest):
"Note that a Collector's Edition reissue of the original 'Alien vs Predator' has also been reported for Blu-ray release on April 15; asked to confirm those reports this morning, a Fox rep said they were "not true.""

Re: AVP and AVP:R
I agree. And as much of an Alien saddo that I am, can't see me shelling out for a special edition of AVP. I mean how much can they polish it, really????????
