DVD Review - Wizards

About the DVD
Twentieth Century Fox’s first-ever animated film, created by renowned director Ralph Bakshi, WIZARDS appears in a 35th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray + Book release on March 13 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. Celebrating its 35th anniversary, the “epic fantasy of peace and magic” stars the voice talent of Mark Hamill (Star Wars Saga). The special edition Blu-ray + Book release is a must-have for fans and collectors, featuring 24-pages of amazing artwork from the film, some of the artwork never-before-seen, and a special message from Bakshi!

Set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, this fantasy adventure follows the story of Avatar, the kindly, eccentric sorcerer-ruler of Montagar, a rainbow paradise inhabited by elves and fairies. Avatar's evil brother, Blackwolf, dominates Scortch, a bleak land of goblins and wraiths. When the power-hungry Blackwolf attacks Montagar, Avatar, accompanied only by a spirited young woman and a courageous elf, must enter the darkness of Scortch to save his world.

WIZARDS will be available as a Blu-ray + Book release for the ARP of $19.99. Prebook is February 15th.

My Take on the DVD
As a person who always loved star wars, this series was awesome! I loved not only the plot, but the artwork was amazing and just jumped off the screen. On top of this the characters were a ton of fun. Whether you have heard of this series or not in the past, you will appreciate this if you are at all a science fiction/fantasy fan. There were some parts that were a bit over the head of younger audiences, but for the adults in the room, you will definitely appreciate and love the humor, plot and characters!
