Presents
2009’s MOST OUTRAGEOUS COMEDY BLOCKBUSTER
~ The hysterical box office smash explodes onto DVD &
Blu-ray January 26 2009 ~
The movie that takes no prisoners deploys on Blu-ray & DVD on January 26 2009 in a 3-disc Special Collector’s Edition Unrated Director’s Cut as well as in a single-disc format from Paramount Home Entertainment.
Directed by and starring Ben Stiller (Zoolander) and featuring an all-star cast including Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Jack Black (Kung Fu Panda), Nick Nolte (Hulk), and Steve Coogan (Alan Partridge), TROPIC THUNDER is “brilliant – great entertainment” (Sunday Mirror). The film follows five pampered actors on the set of a Vietnam War movie who are thrust into real-life danger and forced to become the fighting unit they’re attempting to portray in order to survive. The result is an over-the-top, unforgettable film that is “brilliant, *****” (UNCUT).
The TROPIC THUNDER Unrated Director’s Cut three-disc DVD set includes the director’s cut version of the feature film with an extra 15 minutes of never-before-seen footage plus an arsenal of special features that takes viewers even deeper into the s&*t including ‘Rain of Madness’, an uproarious faux documentary about the making of the film within a film, filmmaker and cast commentaries (including some in character), behind-the-scenes featurettes, cast profiles, ‘Dispatches from the Edge of Madness’, deleted and extended scenes, including an alternative ending, ‘TROPIC THUNDER at the MTV Movie Awards’ and more. The three-disc DVD set and Blu-ray also includes Paramount Home Entertainment’s first digital copy which offers consumers the ability to watch TROPIC THUNDER on their preferred portable media device (both WMV and iTunes formats).
TROPIC THUNDER is available to buy on DVD and Blu-ray from January 26 2009
