Even though the 7-part Mini Series just wrapped tonight, HBO has set a December 16th release date for this title, produced and adapted for the network by David Simon & Ed Burns (The Wire) based off of Evan Wright’s book of the same name. Generation Kill follows the highly trained Maries of First Recon Battalion through the first 40 days of the Iraq War and in that time frame they deal with supply shortages, incompetent commanding officers, and life in general. All that is known as of right now is that it is a 3-Disc set, no word on special features or specific technical specs but its safe to say it will feature a 1.78:1 Widescreen Aspect Ratio with 5.1 Surround Sound. No word on a Blu-Ray release either but we will keep you posted as soon as word breaks!
