It'll be interesting if The Fugitive can be the first BD to actually look better than HD, considering the poor reviews it got. I haven't seen it though, still just a spectator...

Grand Prix in HD is a must-buy. The recent DVD release looks fantastic, and the racing scenes are incredible. The whole time I was watching it, I was thinking "this would be the perfect HD-DVD demo disc."

EDIT: Never mind. Just actually read the link, which confirms this.
I'm excited beyond words about the Adventures of Robin Hood release. While it will make for an odd double-feature with T3, I'll probably do just that on the 28th.

I saw a trailer for this movie (Lower City) and it looked amazing. Is this really confirmed HD-DVD title? I haven't seen it mentioned on any of the lists I've read.

Adventures of Robin Hood? HELL YES! Not only is this an amazing film that will look incredible in HD, but it will also have the first Looney Tunes cartoon in HD!

I still own the Criterion LD because of the commentary track and own the 2-disc Warner SE. I agree that this will look great.

Plus, I recently re-watched this and Momento and I have zero interest in seeing either one again. Ever have those moments where you don't like a movie that everyone else seems to like and you can't remember why? yeah. Both of these.
