Yep, Universal changed it back a while ago. Good move on their part.

That's good to hear!

Apparently over on HTF, WB is soon to make a "super" announcement. I guess we'll see.

that announcement is Corpse Bride, and both Willy Wonka and Charlie on HD-dvd Oct 10th.

Looks like October 10th will bring Batman Begins, Polar Express, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) and Corpse Bride to HD DVD, with Syriana and 16 Blocks coming to Blu Ray. Exciting.

Of course, like everyone else, I'm also hoping WB does finally announce their HD Superman plans soon.

More double dips for me. I'm buying all 5.

Whoo-whee, now we're talking!! The big guns are finally comin' out.

Charlie and Wonka? Sold, and sold.

I thought the "super" announcement would involve a man who happens to be super and has returned, but we'll have to wait a little longer for that I guess.

November= me = bankrupt (pending the Superman boxed set)

Awesome! I'll be picking up everything that day.

Count me in for all three of these (as well as Batman Returns and Polar Express). October 10th is an expensive day indeed!

I'll be buying all of these except for Polar Express and I'll be taking the day off from work.

Awesome news....ill definately be getting Batman Begins and Charlie.

Holy crap, I never thought I'd be in that "can't afford all the new releases this week" mode, with HD-DVD in the first freakin' year! excellent!

Amazing. I thought Sept 26 was going be big (Grand Prix, T3, Dazed & Confused, Fear & Loathing)... but looks like the 10th is going to be a wallet-buster.

And the hits just keep on coming: http://hddvdformat.blogspot.com/

Universal HD DVD releases on 11/28:
An American Werewolf in London (HD DVD/DVD Combo)
Dune - Theatrical Cut
Meet The Parents
The Mummy

Damn....Dune, The Mummy and Meet the Parents for me.

Nice to see these finally announced.

oh god I hope not, the combo prices (in general) are too much if you ask me.

Wow. I'm very happy Charlie and Chocolate Factory is coming so soon. Excellent news on the other releases too. I hope they clean up Dune.

October and November are shaping up nicely. Can't wait to see what December will be like. We still have Harry Potter and V for Vendetta not announced yet...

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory should look amazing, given the palette of colors used in the film.

even the HBO-HiDef presentation was pretty amazing I thought

Yeah, I was able to catch it on HD and agree with that assessment.

although the resolution for the DM-R'd IMAX print was by far the "best" and most glaring: the facial makeup looked caked on and in the 'TV miniturize room' refections of the camera and film crew were glaringly obvious in the big bug eyed glasses.

Same here.

Man, maybe I can get a second job at Best Buy to afford all of these new releases.
