Think I'll stick with my HD-DVDs. But that SRP is way too high.

Maybe i'll get them used sometime. My HD-DVD's are ptetty good. And I doubt Universal will do any kind of remastering, it's not like they need it. But it does have DTS-MA.

$120 MSRP...$90 in store? It does seem about $50 to high. They are pricing these as-if they are brand new Day and Dates ($39.99 MSRP) meaning these may not be as cheap as the previous HD DVD ports.

Overpriced.
The Gangster Giftset (Casino, Eastern Promises and American Gangster) lists for $89.98. So does the Ultimate Unrated Comedy collection, and it has one new release (Forgetting Sarah Marshall).

That list price has to be an error - The Mummy collection lists at $94.99 (amazon for $61), has three BD-50's and one of those movies is actually A NEW RELEASE... I'm sure that was just a fuck up - if not, WEAK.

"You can partially thank the incessant nagging for it on forums and such. I was as suprised as anyone when that popped up last night, because it'd been "We're in the process of doing them, but don't have a date" as recently as a few weeks ago. The same went for King Kong, but something has changed in Uni's strategy, going more aggressive.
If what I'm hearing now is true, there should be some more happy announcements for the first quarter coming whose timetables have been pushed up. I don't want to list specific titles because things are still VERY fluid."

Spielberg titles? Back to the Future? Scarface? Cool as Ice?

From what I've heard, you'll be very happy in 2009 if Universal releases some of the planned title (non HD DVD ports). As it stands, we will be seeing tons of the more higher profile HD DVD ports in the first few quarters.

If the list price for this is true that is a really stupid move from the studio. I already own the first film on HD-DVD and debated about picking up the others on HD-DVD. Now there is absolutely no way I will purchase the Blu-ray editions. Which I guess might be a good thing as it will save me my money.

I have a feeling this will be 40% off at Amazon.
Either way, I look forward to ridding myself of another combo.
Not too may left now in my collection.
