There is an X-Men 2.5 DVD on the way. And depending on your point of view this can be either a good or a bad thing.
I’ve gone on record that I don’t like it when companies release different DVD “versions” at different times. I think that if they want to have multiple versions of a DVD with different content, then they should release them at the same time and give their fans the fair choice of which one to get.
However, this one looks like it MAY be a little different. It seems that they’re filming a whole bunch of new content for the X-Men 2.5 DVD release that could be heading our way in time for Christmas. The good folks over at SuperHeroHype.com give us this:
Mark Millar has confirmed that Fox Home Entertainment is working on a “X-Men 2.5” DVD: “Weird day yesterday. Got up nice and early, but got bugger all done thanks to a chain of events beyond my control. One was a film crew in my office to record them DVD extra bits for the back of X-Men 2.5 and another for the Ultimate Avengers animated movie out in the Spring.“
I really enjoyed X-Men 2 and if they’re going to go around and film all new content for a “special DVD re-release of the film then maybe that’ll be ok. I’m still not sold on the whole idea… but we’ll wait and see if this new content justifies an X-Men 2.5 or not.
