Yeah, the reports about that place last year always made it seem like the mere act of walking on it was tempting death. Like any stray pebble could cause you to go cartwheeling 900 feet into the ocean, where you'd explode into 40 ribcages like a Mortal Kombat fatality.

As a technical showcase of 3D it's nothing special at all. If you prefer having a 3D copy around it will be worth the wait to you.

I own more than two good 3D Blu-rays. Prometheus, Brave and Transformers 3 were pretty damn good.

a bit lost, which edition comes with the extra 70min of behind the scenes vid?
I thought target was only 20 min of extras?

All the Blu-Rays get the 70 minute thing.
They all come with it. The only thing that's different is the cover/case the movie comes in, otherwise the extras are identical. Target's release comes with 20 minutes of exclusive extras in addition to the existing extras.

FIXED!
Truth. And to be more specific, it doesn't actually come with the extras, it comes with a code that lets you stream the bullshit EPK fluff on some crappy website probably.
EDIT: Dammit, you fixed your fixed before I could reply!

Looks like the steelbook is only available at Zavvi in the UK and everyone's complaining about the cover and the spine and how it doesn't 'fit' with the previous films. And it's £10 more and seems to have no extra stuff. Really bad.
Although I didn't like the film that much I think I'll get the normal £15.99 from Amazon.

I wish this had a documentary like Dangerous Days.
i wasn't expecting anything that comprehensive, but maybe after they finish the trilogy?
honestly though, the documentary coming with this being over an hour long as a huge surprise, and is great.

I'm a sucker for steelbooks but what an uninspired cover.
There was lots of great imagery in the movie that could have made for some great covers had they not gone for the most boring focus group tested options possible.

Have they said how long it will be? Hoping it's not a 30 min fluff piece.

In the Blu-Ray trailer they've described it as full length so I assume it's relatively long.

So the biggest one is over an hour, all in all about 2 hours total of special features, plus 20 minutes of [probably fluff] from Target. That's pretty nice.
The only thing I'm missing is a commentary track, preferably JJ and Kasdan together. Wouldn't mind throwing John Boyega in with them too to stir it up a little. I love group commentaries where it's a group talking with each other rather than just one dude narrating.
Would be nice if we got a peak at the Star Wars story group, but for all I know they want to keep the mysterical/secretive aura around their work.
Throw in Kennedy for the (imagined) commentary track, though - I'd love to hear how the relationship with JJ, Kasdan and her (and her group) was in terms of plotting out the film.

Jason at Making Star Wars has done a write-up of the documentary that comes with the Blu-Ray, The Secrets of The Force Awakens. The whole thing was shown at SWSX.
A few interesting tidbits.

Nope, I don't think we'll see it for awhile.
This is going to hurt to watch. :'(
Interesting. Why the not!?
I don't even have a 4K TV. I just get the impression that it would look amazing 4K downsampled to 1080p!

Kathleen has had such an amazing career. There should be a movie about her life.

The length of deleted scenes is pretty disappointing.

UHD Discs just came out within the last two weeks. The format is just too new for them to bother to such a small install base for such a huge film.

Guess Disney/Lucasfilm isn't willing to bankroll post production for the rest of the footage like George was, so we're just getting stuff that required little post or that was deleted late in the game. I can't blame them, because it's not like the BluRays will sell less without it, but it does suck not to see more, especially since some of the other cut stuff seems pretty damn interesting. Maybe for a reissue down years down the line.

Was hoping more for that snow speeder chase meself.
Especially considering they had 2 extra hours of footage. Although I do understand a lot of that was unfinished.

It's the prettiest of all the Star Wars films.
We'll see what Edwards does with Rogue One (his films always LOOK good, at least).

I haven't been super impressed with Edwards yet (both visually and content-wise) but this could be the game changer. I'm kind of worried about the spinoffs feeling like fan fiction but I guess it's all fan fiction.

The new films will be as much fan fiction as the prequels.
Every movie made after Lucas sold out, even the main episodes, are basically fan fiction.

Yeah I mean like I said it's all technically fan fiction. But sometimes things can feel more fan fictiony than usual. I know TFA gets lashed at a bit for its callbacks/fan service but I thought it felt like a legitimate thing that successfully keeps the story going. Doing a movie set during the OT and probably with Vader in it and all the OT shit it could easily feel like fanfic.
