It will have a DTS HD Master Audio track. No current equipment can produce that audio, but it sure sounds like it'll rock the house.

I'll pick up Christmas Vacation, but I'll wait to DD for the second Scooby-Doo movie, whihc I actually liked.

All versions will be presented in 1080p video; however, the HD-DVD versions will carry Dolby Digita Plus audio while the Blu-ray versions Dolby Digital audio - as has become the norm for Warner. Full disc specs including extra features (except for Scooby) can be found by clicking through the disc details below.

All of the titles are expected to carry an SRP of $28.99. We'll update this news with a definitive release date as soon as Warner makes it official. Stay tuned.

as for Scooby Doo - the movie wasn't all that, but the DLP theatrical presentation I saw was eye-popping: wow! Would be curious to hear what the reviews think of the HD-DVD.

Yes to National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and a Christmas Story. I'm unsure about Scooby-Doo 2 since I don't consider it to be a classic (i.e. rewatchability).
