Director Duncan Jones‘ information was right on the nose about the January 12th Blu-ray and DVD release date for his film Moon. A date nearly two months after it hits video in the UK. While every other home video news outlet under the sun continued to report an early December release for the film, Jones was adamant that Moon was being held until January in the US and Canada, and urged fans to import the region-free Blu-ray from the UK to keep his sales up over the holiday season. Well, now his fears have been confirmed by Sony. Moon will indeed be on North American store shelves on January 12th. Here are the details:
