See the Earth for the First Time in Spectacular HD and Blu-ray Disc Clarity in IMAX’s Film Blue Planet

Featuring the Bonus Film The Dream is Alive

Available on HD and Blu-Ray Disc June 19, 2007 from Warner Home Video

BURBANK, CA (April 3, 2007) – Take a journey into outer space with IMAX on June 19, 2007 when Blue Planet lands on two radiant new formats from Warner Home Video, a Warner Home Entertainment Company. Filmed by astronauts in IMAX’s signature 15/70 format, which provides astounding image sharpness and clarity, Blue Planet will be released in both the HD and Blu-Ray Disc formats, presenting the consumer with an unprecedented home viewing experience. Both versions will utilize advanced Dolby audio technologies, for the ultimate hi-def listening experience. The discs will include the bonus film The Dream is Alive, also filmed in stunning IMAX 15/70, and featuring the same incredible crisp imagery and sound. Both formats are priced to own at $28.99 SRP.

Blue Planet reveals the Earth to us as only few people have ever seen it: from space. Orbiting 200 miles above Earth’s surface, we can see familiar landforms: the majestic Himalayas, giant Namib Desert sand dunes, jewel-like Caribbean islands. From the unique vantage point of 200 miles above Earth’s surface, we see how natural forces — volcanoes, earthquakes and hurricanes – affect our world, and how a powerful new force – humankind – has begun to alter the face of the planet. From Amazon rain forests to Serengeti grasslands, Blue Planet inspires a new appreciation of life on Earth, our only home.
