The 3-disc Blu-ray edition of Watchmen not only includes a 186-minute Director's Cut of Zack Snyder's love letter to Alan Moore and David Gibbons, it offers an absolutely magnificent Picture-in-Picture track (unlike anything I've ever seen), a collection of well-crafted documentaries, and a Digital Copy of the theatrical cut. The only downside? With Warner's Ultimate Edition looming on the horizon, it's likely that Snyder and the studio have even more content up their sleeve (a filmmakers' audio commentary has already been announced). That being said, the supplemental package on hand adds tremendous value to this release, and should easily please fans and newcomers alike.

* Maximum Movie Mode: I've returned from the future, dear readers, and I can tell you it's a bright and wonderful place. Warner's Maximum Movie Mode isn't just another Picture-in-Picture visual commentary, it's a sprawling, multifaceted, interactive minefield of information that never relents or grows dry. Director Zack Snyder appears throughout the film, standing confidently in front of two large screens -- one plays the feature itself, and one serves up behind-the-scenes footage and other goodies -- that he uses to immerse viewers in every conceivable aspect of his production. He comments on specific details, pauses the film to point out things fans might have missed the first (or fifth) time around, and takes complete advantage of the rare opportunity presented to him, controlling both the pace and direction of the proceedings. At the end of each chat with the director, the camera darts over Snyder's shoulder towards one of the screens, either returning to the film or engaging in a more traditional PiP experience.

Moreover, as the track barrels along, trivia, timelines, side-by-side comicbook-to-screen comparisons, featurettes, and interview segments pop up for your viewing pleasure. Did I mention the presentation is seamless? Nay, flawless? That's right, there aren't any hiccups, annoying load times, or awkward delays in the track's progression or the film's playback. In fact, the shockingly fluid experience is only put on hold if a user presses enter (when prompted, of course) to access storyboards, interviews, or other supplemental video content. In short, Warner's Maximum Movie Mode is an astounding addition to this release that obliterates every other PiP offering I've ever encountered. The future is an amazing place, my friends, and I hope to return to it again and again for years to come.

* Watchmen Focus Points (HD, 36 minutes): You can also view some of the Maximum Movie Mode's individual featurettes from the menu. Included are informative shorts like "The Minutemen," "Sets and Sensibility," "Dressed for Success," "The Ship Has Eyes," "Dave Gibbons," "Burn Baby Burn," "Shoot to Thrill," "Blue Monday," "Attention to Detail," "Girls Kick Ass," and "Rorschach's Mask."

* The Phenomenon: The Comic That Changed Comics (HD, 29 minutes): This exceedingly thorough, unexpectedly revealing retrospective delves into the creation of Alan Moore and David Gibbons' acclaimed graphic novel. Even though the notoriously reclusive Moore is missing from the mix, the film's cast and crew, a handful of DC Comics executives, Gibbons, and other notable figures dissect the groundbreaking comic, discuss its influence, and its timeless relevance. I would normally cringe at the endless adoration on display, but considering they're talking about a revered work like "Watchmen," the praise rarely seems overenthusiastic or unwarranted.

* Real Superheroes: Real Vigilantes (HD, 26 minutes): An in-depth and refreshingly serious examination of vigilantism throughout American history, particularly the '70s and '80s, and even the 21st century. It digs into New York's Guardian Angels organization, the actions and trial of Bernard Goetz, the realities of the Old West, volunteer border patrolmen, overzealous police officers, and an amusing pair of "real" superhero vigilantes (one sporting a low-rent T-shirt, the other a black helmet) in need of immediate counseling. Along the way, the documentary continually turns its attention to Rorschach and the characters of Watchmen, Moore's use of vigilantism as a fundamental launchpad in his original graphic novel, and society's temptation to romanticize and justify such behavior.

* Mechanics: Technologies of a Fantastic World (HD, 17 minutes): This secondary featurette is definitely lighter in tone, but remains as informative and candid as the material preceding it. It follows the film's director, production designers, and department heads as they attempt to make the science and technology that appears in the film as plausible as possible.

* Music Video (HD, 3 minutes): My Chemical Romance's "Desolation Row."
* BD-Live Interactivity and Exclusive Downloadable Content
* Digital Copy: Theatrical Cut
