Supernova (2000) BluRay review…but not by me!

I haven’t received my copy of Supernova yet but figured those interested in an early review of the BluRay release of this film and what it has on it in the way of extras might like to read this:

As I mentioned before, I find Supernova a deeply flawed yet (to me) remarkable curiosity of a film, especially given all the talent in front of and behind the scenes.  If you’re interested in my review of the film, you can find it here.

Please make no mistake about it: Supernova is a very, very bad film, a trainwreck from the get go that during its creation went through many hands before finally being dumped into a “theatrical” release.

Yet in spite of this I’m fascinated by the film, especially when I believe elements of it seemed to work their way -consciously or not- into 2012’s Prometheus.  I say this only because Supernova’s primary director, Walter Hill, is the producer of all the Alien films since the first one, up to and including Prometheus.

Despite the fact that the film is such a wreck, its one of those total misfires that, like a moth to light, I can’t help but look at.
