Universal Home Video have announced that
The Coen Brothers classsic (can't you say that about almost all of their films??)
The Big Lebowski will get the Limited Edition Blu-ray treatment in the U.S. from August 16th and dude... doesn't it look like a cool package?
The Digital Bits say the transfer has been newly re-mastered in HD and will come with a 28 page booklet featuring an exclusive interview with Jeff Dowd, the inspiration for The Dude and all previous extra's from the DVD will carry over...
"...including 6 featurettes (Jeff Bridges' Photo Book, The Dude's Life, The Dude Abides: The Big Lebowski Ten Years Later, The Lebowski Fest: An Achiever's Story, The Making of The Big Lebowski and Flying Carpets & Bowling Pin Dreams: The Dream Sequences of The Dude), a photo gallery, an interactive map and the infamous Mortimer Young introduction.' In addition, the Blu-ray version will exclusively add the U-Control Scene Companion PiP viewing mode, the Mark It Dude onscreen counter option (that tracks all the "Dude-isms" in the film), The Music of The Big Lebowski mode (that lets you identify each song and buy it on iTunes), the Worthy Adversaries: What's My Line trivia game (where you have to finish a character's lines) and all the other usual BD-Live, BD-Java and uPOCKET what have you. Audio will be 5.1 DTS-HD MA."
