EXCLUSIVE: Get To Know Joss Whedon�s �Evil League Of Evil� In The �Dr. Horrible�s Sing-Along Blog� DVD
Published by Rick Marshall on Monday, June 1, 2009 at 2:38 pm.

When Joss Whedon first launched his online musical miniseries �Dr. Horrible�s Sing-Along Blog� last year, it was pretty obvious that the project was something special. Between the experimental method for delivering the series to fans, the low-budget production with high-profile stars, and the terribly addictive songs, there was no shortage of attention heaped on the project � and for good reason. In short, it was one of the Internet highlights of 2008.

The �Dr. Horrible� DVD hits shelves tomorrow, and along with collecting the entire miniseries on one disc, the DVD also contains over 90 minutes of bonus material � including an introduction to the �Evil League of Evil,� the organization to which Dr. Horrible (Neil Patrick Harris) strives to prove his villainous worth. Here�s an exclusive clip:

The rest of the DVD�s bonus features all tend to keep in line with the project�s tongue-in-cheek (and musical) fun, too.

Here�s what else you�ll find on the DVD:

- Commentary with the cast and creators
- �Commentary! The Musical�: 42 minutes of all new music where the cast and creators ignore the movie and sing about the writers� strike�and each other
- Behind-the-scenes featurettes on the making of the movie and the music
- The top 10 video applications submitted by fans who want to join the Evil League of Evil
- Three Easter eggs: blooper reel, rehearsal footage, and up-close-and-personal interviews with the members of the Evil League of Evil

The �Dr. Horrible�s Sing-Along Blog� DVD hits shelves Tuesday, June 2, and retails for $14.95.

What do you think of this special feature from �Dr. Horrible�? Any other features you�re looking forward to on the DVD? Any features you wish they included?

Responses:

This demands blu-ray. Also, despite the low budget, it didn't hurt the look of the production. - Mop (236 lbs) Jun 1, 15:52

        I've mentioned this before on Braves boards. There really is a certain sect of baseball fans who are all about first impressions. - David Jun 1, 15:55 10
        
        Seriously, Greinke's ERA is above 1.00 now...he's slacking. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 15:58 7
        
        it's just like how people only give rave reviews to Pixar movies because they're excellent. -- nm - Reagen Jun 1, 16:01 1
        
        God, that was funny. -- nm - David Jun 1, 16:03
        
        To be fair, sometimes perspective needs time. I have a bunch of Chris Sabo cards. - musubi Jun 1, 16:00 4
        
        Gregg Jefferies could still make a comeback, right? -- nm - Reagen Jun 1, 16:04
        
        I just checked the price history...it's been the same price in the guide since August 2007. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 16:01 2
        
        Stating the obvious, you've sold as many as you can at that price, right? -- nm - David Jun 1, 16:04 1
        
        Lord yes. - Will Hunting Jun 1, 16:25
        
        Greinke is not....what? I....don't.....I mean.......that's beyond DLC. (nm) - musubi Jun 1, 15:58
        
        That run he let in? He totally could have prevented that. -- nm - Reagen Jun 1, 15:56
i love "Commentary! The Musical." -- nm - Andie Jun 1, 15:37 11
- Nobody's Asian in the Movies is my favorite. -- nm - David Jun 1, 15:47 9
  - That is second only to "Ten Dollar Solo" for me. (nm) - musubi Jun 1, 15:51 6
    - Ninja Ropes is also spectacular. -- nm - David Jun 1, 15:53 5
      - Fillion sells it so well. If they sold the soundtrack to Commentary!, I'd probably buy it. (nm) - musubi Jun 1, 15:54 4
        
        The Buffy musical CD is awesome -- nm - Beaker Jun 1, 16:08
        
        Too bad Joss Whedon doesn't like money. -- nm - Reagen Jun 1, 15:56 1
        
        PRAISE BE TO THE ANTI-LUCAS! -- nm - Beryllium Jun 1, 16:33
        
        You should post this idea on Whedonesque. -- nm - David Jun 1, 15:55
  - ~Did they want somebody yellow/hell no~ -- nm - Reagen Jun 1, 15:49 1
    - We'll be loving you long time! -- nm - David Jun 1, 15:51
