It should come as no surprise that while in the midst of Quentin Tarantino‘s “presented by Quentin Tarantino” release Hero he managed to slide in a few quips about his plans for the releasing of the Special Edition of his Kill Bill saga.
Recently his two part DVDs are making a “kill”-ing as Kill Bill Volume 2 has remained the top-selling DVD since its August 10th release, while propelling Volume 1 back into the second slot.
Neither film grossed higher than $70 million at the box-office but obviously the home video draw proves the success of the two movies.
So what of this special edition release well Tarantino tells USA Today, “It’s not just like slapping the two together,” he says. “There are slight changes, and it has an intermission, like a ’60s movie.”
He also leads into that the release could happen as soon as early next year.
The subsequent ultimate Kill Bill DVD would have a new collection of extras, too, but, he says, “it won’t make these two (current DVDs) obsolete. We have put everything we could on volumes 1 and 2, but I have all this cool stuff we have from over the course of a year and a half making (the films).”
