KONG!

Was a bit disappointed with the flick itself, but this is huge for HD DVD. I'll definitely pick it up... the A/V quality should be top-notch.

No day/date Davinci Code for BD...

That seems to conflict with this info:




The flyer says Blu-ray will be day and date on 11/14

^ Since highdefdigest got it from video business and a sony vp was quoted...I would bet that it isnt going to be released.

“We really felt it really required an appropriate amount of time to create the best Blu-ray release possible,” Sony senior VP Fritz Friedman said. “It will be well worth the wait.”

Wow, odd. Though delays are usual with Sony nowadays, the focus on quality is not.

The images weren't showing up, all I got was a DVDActive placeholder so I put them on another server for you.

Seems like most websites still have Backdraft for 9/12. Wonder if it will come through.

Translates to: We'll have it out as soon as we can get these *#%$&$ 50GB discs to work!

Was it supposed to have been delayed?

yup. 9/19

The M:I boxset is back up to 69.99. Between the inability to preorder T3 and Troy, and this boxset's yo-yo string price, Amazon is killing me.

no combo?

I will be buying Kong and Hulk, and Werewolf and Dune.

I'm in for Dune if the transfer is good. Actually, I'll probably buy it anyway

Well, Universal hasn't let me down yet. Josh pointed out that they've never been very respectful of Dune, but I'll wait and see how it looks.

King Kong for me! I still need to get a player :-(

An American Werewolf in London

I'll definitely be picking up King Kong, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and the Mummy...I'm also considering An American Werewolf In London, the Hulk and Meet the Parents but those will depend on finances...

Donnie Brasco??? That's a sony title. Huh. In fact, some of those are

interesting to note that the UK edition of the HD-DVD of 'Saw' has the common sense to release the full unrated version - Sony has beans for brains

What the? I hope that UK list is legit. I'd grab a bunch of them.

Im not sure how legit this list is....we'll see.

A bunch of these were distributed theatrically by Entertainment Film Distributors Ltd. in the UK. I wonder if they are owned by an HD DVD-friendly studio.

If it's not Sony, then I bet you that's how they're coming out. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET.
