Superbits???????????
 

Are there any new superbit dvds coming out! Does anybody know?

It appears Columbia is no longer release them in Region 1.

why are they being released in R1 anymore?

that would be bummer, I was hoping for a bad boys 2 SB
I'd love some info on new superbits too

I haven't heard of this anywhere. More info?

I love Superbit DVD's the video is awesome and the sound is awesome. I hope they keep making them!!!!!!!!!

This was discussed in another Superbit thread -- can't remember which one since a new one is created each week. :)

Pure speculation on my part....but I suspect that sales dropped as the differences in video and audio quality were too miniscule for most people to notice. In addition, the "regular" versions can often be pruchased at 40% of the price of a Superbit (Legend of the Falls, for example). For myself, I always purchased the Superbit version as a 5% or so increase in video quality is worth it to me, especially with a 61" display. But, I am a videophile too.

On a few movies, more significant changes are apparent (Lawrence of Arabia, etc.).

If you are refering to the other thread, then the announcement was that Columbia didn't currently have any on the R1 release schedule. That doesn't neccessarily mean they are not making anymore for R1.

True. There has been no official announcement. But, it seems odd -- especially when a recent New York Times article stated that a new Deluxe Spider-Man would be issued just before the sequel with mention of it being a Superbit.

Maybe they are just going to make them all "Superbit Deluxe"... hehe

I saw that Dr. Strangelove was SUPPOSED to be released as a Superbit for R1 on the 27th of Jan. I'll see if I can dig up that article.

If they put full-bitrate DTS tracks on them they'ld probably have alot more sales.
