Young Indie coming to DVD

[Shonokin]

I was watching History channel last night and to my surprise the pilot of Young Indiana Jones came on. Huh? That was way out of the blue. Well it turns out Lucas is finally releasing the series on DVD. Comes out Oct 23rd.

One of the forums I hang out at is "the Aerodrome" which specializes in WWI era aviation. The owner of the site got this email from Lucasfilm today:

I am writing to let you know that your website is featured in bonus materials included in the upcoming DVD release of The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones.

Making its DVD debut on October 23, George Lucas’ meticulously-researched series couples feature-length episodes along with a treasure trove of historical bonus materials, taking audiences on an adventure through real events of the early 20th century. In Volume I, there are 38 documentaries devoted to various historical subjects. Among the three volumes, there are a total of 94 documentaries.

Also included in the collection is an interactive DVD-ROM timeline which allows audiences to dig even deeper into the fascinating true events that inspired Indy’s exploits. Your site is included as a link from this exciting, revolutionary bonus feature.

Despite what one might think about the series, it sounds like the documentaries will be something to see.

i certainly wanted to like the series, but i never remembered when it was on, so i don't think it made much an impression on me, sadly.

94 docs? that's what, almost five times as many as the episodes? that's insane!

but should be interesting, anyway.
