The Plan: Blu-ray packaging revealed
If you were lucky enough to attend the Battlestar Galactica panel this summer at Wizard World, you no doubt heard Edward James Olmos talk about the The Plan. The Plan is the follow up to the series, which is a feature length film that chronicles the Cylon side of things, throughout the show. Basically patching up some of the left over plot holes and tying up so loose ends left by the series.
The Plan, which will premiere exclusively on DVD, Blu-ray and digital download on October 27, will be later to be shown on The Syfy channel in late November. The artwork and specs for the release we recently released and are as follows:
Disc Features:
-DELETED SCENES

I too cannot wait for this to be released. I was there at Wizard World Philly when Olmos gushed repeatedly about how awesome this film would be. Sadly I think he mispoke when he told the people at the panel that the DVD version was going to be well over 120 minutes (i forget the actual) but apparently its not that much longer than what will be broadcast.
I wish the features would include an explanation to the missing CYLON # 3 and how you can include non-cylons like the Admiral without including very cylon-centric characters like Starbuck (relationship with both Anders & Leoben) and Gauis (All the Sixes)?? People keep telling me to wait and see but its still hard for me to comprehend their absences. Oh well.
