With the release of Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantamamo Bay slated for July 29th, the dvd has something to offer that to my knowlege, no other dvd has offered before.
choose your own adventure.
The DVD release of Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay will allow viewers to choose their own adventure. Not much has been revealed yet, but the official press materials lists a special feature called “Dude, Change the Movie!” which will allow “you to select from new and alternate scenes to change the course of the film.”
Waaaaay back there was a movie based on the board game of clue that had three different endings changing the film entirely, and the DVD release of course has all three endings in it. But this is something else.
Imagine just how much extra footage would have had to be filmed just to accomodate this. Well apparently it comes down to 27 extra scenes that were shot. You will be able to interup the movie and choose exactly how you wanted it played out, more than once! Its not like you get to say “he gets the girl” at the end. This is going to have pivital moments mapped out for you to choose.
This is innovative, and though I wasn’t lured to see this in theaters, it looks like a worthy purchase on DVD just to see if I can find added entertainment value.
