Rate Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God (DVD Release Status: In Flux)

[Truth Seeker]

Judging from my account at Amazon, it is just a regular selling item.

Okay, Best Buy's (American) website lists the DVDs release date as February 7th, 2006.

Strange.

Hmm, perhaps the Amazon.com release is an exclusive. :\

I initially wasn't going to get the DVD release, but since it has some actual D&D material that ties-in to the movie (which, IIRC, the first one didn't), then I think I'll take the plunge. Especially considering the other tie-in in Dungeon #129.

Yeah, I wish they'd hurry up and release this. I want an IMDB page, darnit!

Sounds like a rip?

Thanks for the info, Truth Seeker. I must have missed that message (#231) while reading through the yahoo group. I'm reposting it here as a FYI for everyone.

Subject: Why No DVD sale...

Got this... Quoted from Stardrake from WOTC forum: The crew at my FLGS told me
the release date was pushed back 3 months. Reason: Sci-Fi decided to keep the
film as an exclusive for 3 more months, due to good ratings. (This info came to
them from their distributor).

So, those of us without cable or satellite get to wait....

Also...

Here's an interesting fact that I gleaned off the WotDG messageboard over at IMDb. The message is a few weeks old, but it's still interesting.

D&D 2 opens in Russia
by - bjderr1972 (Wed Nov 23 2005 12:32:40)

I was checking out boxofficemojo and D&D 2 WOTDG opened at #10 with 157,000 dollars.

So, it does appear that WotDG is getting some screen time in International markets, as well as being shown on SciFi Channel in the US.

Here's another interesting little fact, FirstLook International did another screening of WotDG at Broadway Mann Criterion #5 (1313 Third Street Promenade) on 11/2 and 11/8. That sounds like it could be somewhere in New York, but since I really don't know anything about NY that I don't learn on Law & Order, it could be anywhere, I guess.

Anyone know for certain?

Cheers!

BTW, here are the current "official" release dates listed on IMDb.

Country (Date)
Thailand (September 2005) - bootleg Elemental Might version, I believe
Russia (6 October 2005)
USA (8 October 2005) - TV premiere
Philippines (12 October 2005) - Manila
Philippines (2 November 2005) - Davao
France (1 February 2006)

Also, I looked through the entire December and January schedules at SciFi Channel's website, and found no indication that WotDG is going to be on again. It's not in the schedule anywhere that I can find it.

That seems strange, if SciFi wants to keep the rights because rating have been great. You'd think they'd have it as a focal point for a Saturday or Sunday movie night with other fantasy movies.

Anyway, just my opinion.
