The Bourne Ultimatum HD DVD Combo 12/11/07
UPDATED SPECS AND COVER ART, courtesy of HD Digest:
Now, the full dossier is in, and the title would seem to live up to expectations. Standard extras shared between the HD DVD and DVD versions include audio commentary with the filmmakers, 12 minutes of deleted scenes, and a collection of five featurettes totaling over 45 minutes: "Driving School," "New York Chase," "Planning the Punches," "Roof Top Pursuit" and "Man on the Move."
Exclusive to the HD DVD will be a "U-Control" picture-in-picture video commentary including additional cast & crew interviews, behind-the-scenes footage and more.
Tech specs are equally impressive, with the set including the studio's usual 1080p/VC-1 video and audio tracks in both Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 surround.

I must be the only person who likes combos.
My wife and I have a DVD/TV combo in the bedroom. So if you don't want to watch it on the HD-DVD player, we can do with the DVD in the other room.
Just convenient to have even if they are more expensive.

I love combos too. I let my dad who doesn't have a HDTV use them. I can also throw them on the tv in our workout room if I want to listen to something in the background.

I like combos too...especially for films like TMNT. That way my kid can watch it anywhere.
I am new to HD-DVD but have not had any problems with the combos I have bought so far. Why do I see so many random complaints about them?

A definite must own for any HD DVD owner for sure. I can't wait to see full specs, I have no doubt Universal will deliver a pretty packed disc, I just can't help but wonder how much of the behind the scenes turmoil during production is going to make the cut. (hopefully this thread won't devolve into another combo yay or nay thread...)

I welcome buying this in HD-DVD, but wish that these combo discs weren't flippers. To me at least, it simply represents an additional side that can become scratched very easily versus a SD-DVD flipper. If the supposed triple layer hd-dvd were to become a reality sooner than later, the better.
