Here’s a no brainier article but probably worth reporting on anyway! If I asked you what you thought the biggest selling blu ray of all time was, what would you say? You’d either guess Avatar or The Dark Knight wouldn’t you? Well, you’d be absolutely right!
Twentieth Century Fox have issued a press release letting us know that James Cameron’s epic movie has become the biggest selling UK Blu Ray of all time and it will probably remain so for many years to come. Until Avatar 2 comes along that is! Read on for the full details.
London, UK (Monday 10 May 2010) – AVATAR has once again shattered industry records to become the biggest selling Blu-ray title ever in the UK, announced today by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment (TCFHE). In 2 weeks, TCFHE sold 505,057 units of AVATAR on the high-definition Blu-ray format – beating the all-time Blu-ray record of 490,633 held by The Dark Knight and breaking the half a million milestone.
“Blu-ray is the ultimate way for fans to enjoy Avatar at home and experience Pandora in all its awe-inspiring clarity in high definition” commented Steven Leighton, SVP Northern Europe and Asia Pacific for TCFHE. “It’s no surprise that viewers are choosing to own AVATAR on Blu-ray and with 22.2% of our overall sales to date this clearly demonstrates that UK consumers are embracing Blu-ray as the format of choice.”
Lavinia Carey, Director General, British Video Association said: “It’s fitting that AVATAR is the title that inspires consumers to buy into Blu-ray and lift it to the next level of household penetration as the best way to watch high definition content.”
Prior to the film’s release on Blu-ray Disc and DVD, AVATAR generated over £91million at the UK box-office and $2.7 billion worldwide — making it the highest grossing film of all time. Written and directed by James Cameron and produced with his long-time collaborator Jon Landau, AVATAR stars Sam Worthington, Zoë Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Michelle Rodriguez, Giovanni Ribisi, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Wes Studi and Laz Alonso. Director James Cameron takes audiences to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization.

This year’s Clash of the Titans remake starring Sam Worthington, Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, Alexa Davalos, Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson is coming to Blu-ray Disc and DVD on July 27 from Warner Home Video sans the controversial tacked-on 3D.
Packaged in with the Blu-ray version (and possibly DVD, too, though unconfirmed) is a sneak peek of The Green Lantern film with Ryan Reynolds that is currently shooting in Louisiana. The first footage from The Green Lantern is expected to debut a few days before Clash arrives on Blu-ray at the San Diego Comic-Con, however this news brings hope to those not crammed like sausages into the exhibit hall of getting in on the cosmic police action, too.
The Clash of the Titans Blu-ray will sport a 2.35:1 1080p transfer and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track. A digital copy and standard DVD of the film will be included along with the following bonus features (in addition to coveted The Green Lantern sneak peek):
* Sam Worthington: An Action Hero for the Ages
* Harnessing the Gods: Maximum Movie Mode
* Deleted Scenes
* Alternate Ending
* BD-Live
Per comments made by director Louis Leterrier during interviews, Clash of the Titans was heavily modified in the editing bay and came out radically different than his original intent. Hopefully the Maximum Movie Mode and deleted scenes offer some insight into what was given the axe. Based on what we know now, a director’s cut does not appear to be in the cards.
