The World of Wes Anderson
Exciting news for fans of pixels, Wes’ third film The Royal Tenenbaums will, as Rushmore before it, be getting a Blu-Ray re-release from The Criterion Collection. Looks like the extras will be identical to the terrific DVD release. You can check out the still great, albeit admittedly familiar, artwork by Eric Chase Anderson below. The Blu-Ray will be available in the US on 8/14.
Criterion announced their November releases this afternoon, and none other than Criterion stand-by Rushmore is coming to Blu-Ray!
The disc will feature everything from the original, stellar, DVD edition, plus a brand new Wes supervised transfer of his “Director’s Cut.” We’re excited to see it, and hopefully this means we’ll be getting similar upgrades for The Royal Tenenbaums and The Life Aquatic.
Click on the cover above to pre-order from Criterion, the disc will be released November 22nd.

Thanks to Tom, Micah, and Michael.
Michael adds:
I also double-checked with [Criterion] to make sure it will also see a standard DVD release, and they assured me it would.
How does an asshole like Bob get such a great kitchen?
