Today’s the day to get out on the Straße and hit the Geschäfte because the 21st of April is Loverboys – Desperate Wives day in Germany.
Europe sees the worldwide première of the renamed Cougars, Inc. on DVD and Blu-ray, three weeks before the North American 10th of May release. The discs almost certainly contain the original English soundtrack so won’t be limited to only German speaking folks.
This will be the first time that the DVD extras (which apparently include a “Making of…” and picture gallery) will be seen.
My copy should be here very soon. Just in time for the extended weekend 😉
If you buy yourself a copy please let us know what you think.
Update: Credit to Amazon Germany and UPS for getting the discs to me first thing this morning. As Julie comments below Kathryn only appears on the front of the box art. Denise appears 5 times in total. Rebecca and Catalina twice. Disappointingly the DVD extras only amount to the trailer and a photo gallery (I’ve added copies of the 3 involving Kathryn to the Gallery), though there are trailers for three other movies. There is no “Making of…” and no cast and crew commentaries. The need to have a 2nd language on the disc may have taken up too much space and caused the removal of the extras. Making it a dual layer disc would have added to the costs. The Blu-ray is little more than a high definition version of the DVD. We’ll have to wait and see if the American version is different.
Update 2: Credit to me from Amazon Germany! The price of the Loverboys Blu-ray dropped by €5 to match the €9.99 (less than US$15) of the DVD, making it even more of a bargain than before and they’ve refunded me the difference. They ship internationally. You can find the Cougars, Inc. Blu-ray on the Amazon.de website here.
