List With The Force Awakens Blu-ray/DVD Special Features!
A Swedish site has put up The Force Awakens Blu-ray for pre-order on their site, and surprisingly included some information potentially revealing what the special features are going to be…
A few days ago we told you that The Force Awakens will hit digital platforms on March 15, which is only 19 days away. The actual release of the movie is expected to be on April 5th, and many people were wondering why we still don’t have an official announcement on that.
Now the Swedish site CDON.com has put up TFA Blu-ray for pre-order on their site and included some really interesting and legit looking info on the special features. Here they are:
- Secrets Of The Force Awakens: A Cinematic Journey
- The Story Awakens: The Table Read
- Building BB-8
- Crafting Creatures
- Blueprint of a Battle: The Snow Fight
- The Visual Magic Of The Force
- John Williams: The Seventh Symphony
- Deleted Scenes
- Force For Change
As you can see the list sounds pretty genuine. It’s not uncommon foreign sites to receive the info and post it in advance, not following a certain embargo. The best recent example was TFA soundtrack list which leaked on the French Amazon.
Until official word is released treat this as a regular rumor, but from what I am hearing, I think that this is indeed the real list of special features. Also we got word that this site is pretty reputable (something like the Swedish Amazon), so my guess is that we will be getting an official announcement on the Blu-ray/DVD release in the following days.
Special thanks to Niklas Karlsson for the heads up.

I hope supermarkets etc start selling the blu ray at midnight. Midnight movie and munchies trip to tesco : )
ow yeagh
when you get sex for the first time
first time ? lol
Count Dooku? He’s a Jedi. It’s not in his character 🙂
Dooku is a sith!
Can verify that CDON is a legit site.
No commentary track? was really hoping for that, really disappointed that there isn’t one.
Yeah, I want a commentary too.
It’s possible this is just a list of extras from the second disc, so there’s still hope for a commentary.
That’s what i’m hoping to be the case too.
u really want a hyper JJ commentary track for 2hours ?? i would love one with Mark Hamill or maybe Kevin Smith together with JJ
He based his whole career after Speilburg that it only makes sense that he doesn’t believe in them either.
Boy, I’m really starting to get old now = ( I can still remember getting the original
trilogy box set on VHS. I went ape shit with joy that day = ) Come April 16 I’ll be
going ape shit again…
You and me both!
Laserdisc… we were fancy.
I remember my dad buying a bootleg version on VHS before it was officially released!
GREAT!!
cool! so wizard!! lol
CDON.com is a legit site. They’ve been around for many years, and have always been one of the biggest online stores in Sweden. I’ve never heard anything bad about them, nor have I had any problems when I’ve ordered from them. 🙂
Know they’re really big in Norway too.
Ah yeah, that’s true. When I think about it, I believe they are quite big in Finland aswell.
Btw did anyone see that the episode VIII is out lol I saw it on Comcast on demand and freaked for a second. Nice little exciting preview with a little luke sky walker in it.
Yeah but I need the package to be special too
I wish the secrets of the force awakens is really a loooonng documentary with all the ups and downs. The film deserves it.
yes, me too! I want to hear someone say “BB-8 is the key to all this.”
Haha! JJ ruining the storyboards with markers. It rhymes!!!
Jokes a part I found that Making Of really good, it really showed the way Lucas worked and it was very exciting.
Nice list. I hope they all have good running times, fingers crossed.
Looking at the list I wouldn’t mind guessing that there would be about 8 or 9 hours worth of extras
I hope the table read is the entire thing, not just a montage of clips; I want to put on the whole table read, close my eyes, and re-imagine the movie in my head. (Not that I think it NEEDS re-imagining, it’s just something I like to do :D.)
Noice.
YESS! I can’t wait to see who made those LED lightsabers 🙂
Like all Star Wars releases, will this include all the trailers and TV spots.
this just in
Secrets Of The Force Awakens: A Cinematic Journey : 22 mins
The Story Awakens: The Table Read : 6 mins
Building BB-8 : 3 mins
Crafting Creatures : 3 mins
Blueprint of a Battle: The Snow Fight : 2 mins
The Visual Magic Of The Force : 7 mins

Force For Change : 2 mins
only joking, its good for moral
My heart sank with every line until I got to the end.
If it was Disney, that’d be how long each extra would be. Hope the main doco will be at least 1 hour or longer. They’d have a lot to cover.
I will knock Bob Iger the **** out if this happens.
Guys can you please not refer to non-US countries as ‘foreign’? 96% of humans don’t live in the US so please don’t assume the majority of your readership is American. Sorry, but it bugs me when sites do that.
It really bugs my family in South America when people from the US refer to themselves as American, like you just did about us, so if the PC police are on patrol you may want to keep that in mind as well.
I think the term ‘American’ is universally accepted to refer to people from the US. I’ve never heard of anyone from a South American country or Canada (which is part of north america) refer to themselves as American. And brother, if you wanna accuse me of being the ‘PC police’, then you just picked the wrong fight because I’m anything but.
Foreign is a lot easier to write then non-US countries. It’s common practice to use this terminology for a publication based in the USA, foreign is any country that is not the USA, and international is all countries including the USA. Domestic just refers to the US.
I don’t see what the big deal is, you just have to remember where the publication you are reading is based. It’s definitely not supposed to be offensive, and it shouldn’t be. If you are offended by it you probably will get offended by anything, so it is really pointless to cater to extremely sensitive people, it’s like walking on egg shells, you will never be satisfied.
Actually, virtually nothing offends me. There’s a difference between being offended and being annoyed. No where in my original post did I say it offends me. The use of the word ‘foriegn’ is just indicative of a US-centric world view.
Fair enough.
I don’t have to assume anything. I have stats and I know that the majority of our readers are from the US. Also 90% of our writers are US residents. So I really don’t understand what the problem is.
I think you’re missing the point.
Seems a little light. Was hoping for the trailers and TV spots even though they’d probably have to include another disc considering how many they had.
I bet that those are going to be included on Disc 1, and Disc 2 is the above special features. Even if they don’t, it’s not as necessary now that we have YouTube (though it would be nice).
Yeah I really don’t see why you’d even want to see trailers and tv spots… fragmented parts of the movie that are already available on youtube?
Just cause they’re epic, I guess.
Quality’s not great though. I also like seeing the OT music spliced in.
Disney seems to be light on all their releases save for their animated films that get re-released so it wouldn’t surprise me. I just hope they keep the blooper reel easter egg intact.
I doubt the extras on the first edition are going to blow us away. they will want us to come back and buy this thing several more times. stringing us out the whole way. they aren’t going to give us a full meal at the first sitting.
