    What do you want to see on the dvd?

    Really would like a longer directors cut and a making of documentary.

    Mav Edit: Added release date of April 5th, 2016 to the title.


    EHT edit: Date was actually not official, so it was removed from the title.

    EHT edit: NOW April 5th is official, so added it back to the thread title.

    The commentaries are always fun. It will also be nice to finally hear the cast able to talk about their characters in depth.

    When the blu ray drops, I'll be hoping for maybe a longer cut of the film -- a version which re-inserts some of the film's 'lost' scenes.

    For example, the famous shot of Kylo from the trailer, as Ben enters the forest and ignites his lightsaber? Now that's something I would definitely be interested in seeing reinserted into the film. The same is true (especially true) of any shot(s) of Han and Leia handing Ben over to Luke and/or Luke training Ben before Solo was tempted by Snoke. I'd absolutely love to see something like that!

    Or, failing this, at least all of the film's deleted scenes collected in one place.



    We'll see.

    At the top of my wishlist is an extended cut/special edition. 10-15 minutes that give us some more context about the state of the galaxy and the New Republic. This would make TFA a much better movie in my mind. A documentary that includes interviews with George would be great.

    Not just deleted scenes, hate that. I mean an extended version of the movie as well as theatrical cut.
    I always love extended editions of great movies, whether it's Aliens or Lord of the Rings.

    I would appreciate that.
    I hope Kylo sitting in the Millenium Falcon is in it.

    Should be a lot better if it's 4 hours like LOTR. Everything seemes rushed in the theatrical release of Awakens so an extended would flesh things out and give it better pacing.

    One example would be the Snoke scenes, there is more detail in the novel and I reckon they trimmed them down for theatrical cut. Running time doesn't matter for DVD, only cinema.

    I respect your position, but I don't think I'd want/need extended editions of all seven. Even though it's early days, I think I would like a very-carefully and well-edited extended edition of VII, I wouldn't of the others Episodes except maybe II. I am saying this as someone who likes/loves Episodes I through VII equally (I was prepared to not put VII in that company before seeing, but am glad it is).

    As others have said, I would appreciate some more "breathing room" scenes, or slight extensions of scenes we already have. In particular, more in Maz's cantina, Resistance base, Kylo speaking to the mask, and so on.
