Amazon Commissions Earned
The 2002 film “Clockstoppers“ is coming to Blu-ray Disc for the first time on January 25th, 2022, via Paramount Home Entertainment. The film, directed by Jonathan Frakes, starred Jesse Bradford, French Stewart, Paula Garcés, Michael Biehn, Garikayi Mutambirwa, Lindze Letherman, and Julia Sweeney.
The tech specs for the Blu-ray have not yet been announced but you can expect full 1080p HD video, likely in the original 1.85:1 aspect ratio, with a lossless sound mix (presumably in a 5.1 surround configuration). It’s also unknown if this will contain all of the DVD extras ported over or not, but I would speculate that it should. That all being said, stay tuned for any updates regarding this release. You can find the Blu-ray now available for preorder over at Amazon.
