If there's one movie this summer that I'm completely bummed that I missed it's (500) Days of Summer.  The movie looked amazing, and stars two of my favorite actors, Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.  These two have been in some of the best movies of the past ten years including Elf, Brick, The Lookout, and many more.  With all that was going in the CineManiac household I just never got the chance to see it.  (although I had tickets to a preview screening by the time I got there it was already full)  So I can't wait to check it out when it hits stores on December 22. 

And if the movie wasn't enough the Blu-Ray is packed with extra goodies including deleted scenes, featurettes, commentary, and much, much more.  You can read all about it in the full press release below.


THIS IS NOT A LOVE STORY. IT’S A STORY ABOUT LOVE.

LOS ANGELES, CA. – (Oct. 15, 2009) – Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn’t. Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment presents the critically acclaimed, offbeat romance that proves when it comes to love some people know nothing at all as (500) Days of Summer arrives on Blu-ray Disc (BD) and DVD December 22. Zooey Deschanel (Yes Man) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra) star in this quirky romantic comedy about love and fate, as a young greeting card writer (Gordon-Levitt) who is hopelessly, helplessly searching for the girl of his dreams... and his new co-worker, Summer Finn (Deschanel), may just be “the one.” But the 500 days of their offbeat relationship reveal (in no particular order) that the road to happiness can be unpredictable, uncontrollable — and unbelievably funny! From first time feature film director Marc Webb (Jesse McCartney: Up Close), the hilarious true-to-life film also stars Matthew Gray Gubler (Alvin and the Chipmunks) and Clark Gregg (“The New Adventures of Old Christine”) in a unique dissection of the uncertain and whimsical year-and-a-half of one young man’s no-holds-barred love affair, where he learns that love can be difficult, but it’s also by far the best thing life has to offer.

The (500) Days of Summer two-disc BD with Digital Copy* includes cast and crew commentary, deleted and extended scenes, a “making-of” featurette, Summer storyboards, audition tapes, music videos and much more, and will be available for the gift-giving price of $39.99 U.S. / $49.99 Canada. The (500) Days of Summer standard DVD features the cast and crew commentary, deleted and extended scenes, and will be available for the suggested retail price of $29.98 U.S. / $43.48 Canada. Prebook is November 25.
