Finally, we get the Guns Of Navarone and Dr. Strangelove in dts...
With Underworld, I wonder which version of the film it will be. I didn't like the film, but I'm happy that its excellent soundmix is getting dts treatment (though I wonder will there be much of a difference between the Dolby and the dts, considering recent Superbits).

Good news, mostly predictable choices, though i'll probably grab most of them. Don't remember Guns of Navarone really having alot of surround effects, though i do like older films getting restored to better versions.
Thanks for the news!

I figured Bad Boys II would get the superbit treatment. I'll just add that one to my wish list.

Thankfully, I can pass on the rest. My wallet is pleased.

Glad I held off on Dr. Strangelove, though.

I hope the difference between the Superbit Guns of Navarone and the current one is as pronounced as the Lawrence of Arabia Superbit. I got rid of Guns in part because the transfer was so distracting.

Found two cool things about "Dr. Strangelove", though...it will include:
-All new documentary including interviews with Robert McNamara, Walter Kronkite, Bob Woodward, Leonard Maltin, mrs. stanley Kubrick, Spike Lee and others.
-Possible limited edition script with handwritten notes by Kubrick. (to be confirmed)
It will include 5.1 and dts mixes....
