With so many choices where should you Pre-Order your New Moon DVD?
"Last Time the subject of The Twilight Saga: New Moon on DVD came up, things were a little confusing - especially when compared to information circulating the blogosphere and newswaves at present.
Home Media Magazine had conducted an interview with a home entertainment representative of film studio Summit Entertainment, and they quoted him to say that there would not be varying editions of New Moon offered to the separate markets. This was interpreted here to mean that there would not be market exclusives like there were last year with the Twilight DVD.
However, this has since been explained to be a statement meant to exclusively apply to the availability of the Blu-Ray version of New Moon , not DVD. So, in other words, there still will not be market-specific versions of New Moon on Blu-Ray, but, as it has been seen over the past couple of days, there will be different versions of the DVD offered at varying stores.
As of now, while details are still limited as to what each store has to offer, this is what is on the table with the New Moon DVDs. Keep in mind that these are subject to change, of course.
Target
Target has a 3-disc deluxe edition DVD that comes with a "bonus collectible film cell." It includes "the 2 Disc Special edition plus a third disc of never before seen content." The two-disc special edition coverage includes "over 70 minutes of special features including: revealing feature length commentary with Director Chris Weitz and Editor Peter Lambert; a riveting 6-PART DOCUMENTARY that takes you behind the scenes (Part 1: Life After Twilight; Part 2: Chris Weitz takes the helm; Part 3: The Subtle Details; Part 4: Time to Shine; Part 5: Tricks of the Trade; Part 6: Ready for the World); Band Rehersal Footage with Muse; and Music videos from Death Cab for Cutie, Anya Marina, and Mute Math!" The specifics on the "bonus" content of the third disc are as yet unavailable for this product. You can keep an eye on it (or pre-order if you wish) by clicking here.

According to MTV, "There will also be a Fan Event Q&A with Rob, Kristen, Taylor and Chris — probably from Comic-Con or one of the Hot Topic tours, as well as a bit called "Fandimonium" with a look at the "Twilight" fan culture. There will be a "Team Jacob vs Team Edward" piece, some deleted scenes, introduction special features for the Volturi and Wolfpack, an Edward and Jacob "Fast Forward," special videos on Edward going to Italy and Taylor Lautner becoming Jacob, and finally a feature called "Frame by Frame: Storyboards to Screen."
Surely, as time progresses and the date of the film's release to home entertainment venues nears, more details will come.
