Emile Hirsch in "Into the Wild," being released in an extras-free single-disc edition and a two-disc special collector's edition.
Notable DVDs being released today include:
"Into the Wild" (R) and "Into the Wild: Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition" (R): This "pulses with the energy of a breakneck road trip through America," in the words of Washington Post critic Ann Hornaday, and is a "powerful and poetic hymn to America." Directed by Sean Penn and starring Emile Hirsch, the single-disc edition is extras-free. The two-disc version offers a short on "The Story, the Characters" and one called "The Experience." They're reasonably informative, but at only a little more than a half-hour, you're probably better off getting the cheaper single-disc release

I could not put it down, especially knowing that seeing the film was in my future!

in regards to threads, i think there have been PLENTY of ITW threads, so perhaps no one felt the need? this kind of info is so readily available, so really...don't need *reminders* here that it released on dvd yesterday. just my 2 cents.
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
I'm not bashing the movie here...just to be clear. I really liked it but the book was better IMO.
"I wanna live my life with the volume full"
I do agree with you as well in that I was more impressed with the book, and I think it has to do with someone so accustomed to the outdoors as Krakauer is...he has wisdom far beyond anything I can imagine.....read his book Into Thin Air and you will get that sense as well (if you haven't already). It's about his Mt Everest summit, and the morality of climbing.....equally as interesting...
It's just that there are so few really GREAT movies anymore that this still stood out as incredible!

"I wanna live my life with the volume full"
I hear that. The best part of the book was the insight from Krakauer. I had such amazingly high expectations of this film that I can see why you might feel that way. I also don't think that you are bashing the movie.
