Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray Details and Cover Art

Paramount Home Entertainment will bring Michael Bay’s Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen starring Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel and John Turturro to Blu-ray Disc and DVD on October 20.

The two-disc Blu-ray edition will be presented in 2.35:1 1080p video and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. The press release we were sent does not mention how the IMAX sequences will be handled (a good bet is the same way they were on The Dark Knight).

A number of bonus features are exclusive to Blu-ray and noted below towards the end of the features list.

Disc 1:

  • Commentary by Michael Bay, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman

Disc 2:

  • The Human Factor: Exacting Revenge of the Fallen—This multi-chapter documentary chronicles the entire creation of the film and includes interviews with the cast and crew:
    • Seeds of Vengeance – Development and Design – After the overwhelming success of 2007’s Transformers, how do the filmmakers top themselves for the sequel?
    • Domestic Destruction – Production: United States – Michael Bay believes in going big: Big action and big explosions. Cast and crew are pushed to the limit as they traverse the U.S. from New Mexico to Pennsylvania.
    • Joint Operations – Production: Military – No other filmmaker in the world enjoys the kind of military access and cooperation Michael Bay has. Here we see just how efficient our armed forces are and the awe and respect shown by the cast.
    • Wonders of the World – Production: Middle East – You can’t really reproduce Egypt anywhere but Egypt so off we go to Giza and Luxor.
    • Start Making Sense – Editing – In order to turn over the massive amount of film as quickly as possible to VFX, four editors work tirelessly in a unique tag-team approach to shape the film.
    • Under the Gun – Visual Effects – Revenge of the Fallen features the most complicated VFX in film history. So complicated in fact that the filmmakers were unsure they would make the deadline. The DEVASTATOR VFX alone required 83% of ILM’s total render farm capacity.
