I'm surprised digi didn't want any of those titles.
I'm very likely going to pick up all four of them. Good to hear they are going into their more interesting catalog titles and not just releasing Patch Adams or The Mummy. |
Even though The Thing and Army of Darkness are now 2 of Universal's HD releases for the Halloween, I still have hopes that Dawn of the Dead '04 will also sneak in there.

Count me in for a copy of Dawn of The Dead '04 if it gets released this year. I have been playing Dead Rising for the past week and it has really gotten me in the mood for watching this movie again.

I'll take The Thing

Excited about 12 Monkeys, though something tells me that it's going to be one of those "controversial" transfers, a la Sleepy Hollow. Still, I bet it'll look as intended, and I'm really looking forward to it. Might also get Out of Sight, too.
I'm surprised we're not getting Scarface in October, what with the new "Deluxe" edition on DVD. Still, thanks, Universal! |

Damn...Universal will bankrupt me yet. In for all 4. Hell, I'm in for just about all of their pre-orders.
|
I'm down for all four. Fantastic news!!!!
|
I'm not drawn to any of the latest 4 titles from Universal - has anyone heard if 'United 93' will be released on HD-DVD; I've not purchased it yet... hoping for a HD release.

From The Blu Bits:
One last high-def note today. Paramount informed us this morning that the M:i:III HD format spec list they sent us, which we posted yesterday, contained a couple of errors. The Inside the IMF featurette is in standard definition video, not high-def, on both HD versions. Also, the audio on the Blu-ray Disc will be Dolby Digital, while the audio on the HD-DVD will be Dolby Digital Plus. We've updated the spec list below. Adjust your purchase plans accordingly. |

BTW, I'd bet good money The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and The Scorpion King will be available on HD-dvd within the next year. Great looking D-VHS titles that Universal loves to use to show off as eye candy. Add that to the fact that they also seem to have a thing for releasing movies featuring The Rock. |
I'm sure The Mummy will be out before year's end.
|
I'll definitely be picking up the Thing, Out of Sight and 12 Monkeys...October is really turning out to be a good month for HD-DVD releases.

I sold my SD versions of "12 Monkeys" and "The Thing" about a month ago in anticipation. Glad I won't have to wait long!

Spartacus is, thus far, the longest movie released on HD DVD, no? Should be interesting to see the quality and reviews.

It should be fine. If Firewall (105 min) can fit on 15GB with three DD+ tracks, Spartacus (no more than 198 min) can fit on 30GB.
