After the disappointing box office haul for Universal’s “Scott and Pilgrim Vs. The World” (the film was budgeted at $60 million and is sitting at a little past $30 million after 6 weeks on release), the studio is hoping it will find new life on home video. The Facebook page for the film has confirmed it will hit DVD and Blu-Ray on November 9th, just in time for the start of the Christmas shopping season.
There are the usual extras (trailers and TV spots, production stills, trivia track, bloopers, music videos) but it’s arriving in a few formats — BluRay Combo Pack, BluRay, DVD and digital download — and you’ll need to get the BluRay Combo Pack to get all the bells and whistles.

Sounds like a healthy dose of material should please even the most diehard fans of the film. Here’s hoping this Playlist favorite finds the audience it deserves on DVD.
I'm just wondering if this release date is limited only to North America or if this is a world-wide thing. I live in Australia and would very much LOVE to get my hands on the Blu-Ray Combo.
Thats a lot of special features for a film no one gives a fck about. If you waste your time listening to all those commentaries.. LOL @ you bro.
"A GAME CHANGER." – the DVD's tagline.
O RLY?
On Edgar Wright's blog he has said that the UK release may be on Dec 27th and the rest of the world to be confirmed. He also says that the UK will get a 2 DVD Special Edition that has all the same features as the North American Blu-Ray. All to do with different markets etc.
Can't wait for it
