'The Rocketeer' Comes to Blu-Ray December 13th!

One of my personal favorite comic book adaptions is headed for Blu-ray this December, and I couldn’t be more excited. Disney is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of director Joe Johnston’s adventure film, ‘The Rocketeer’, starring Billy Campbell, Jennifer Connelly, Timothy Dalton, and Alan Arkin. This will be a great Christmas gift for the comic book fans and film fans in your family. Joe Johnston recently released ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’ this summer to critical acclaim, and this film is very much in the same vein of the Marvel comics film. Disney has released a new press release for the release, which you can see after the jump. ‘The Rocketeer’ will be released December 13!
