I'm glad 300 isn't a TotalHD disc. But it does suck, again, that Warners does not give a PCM track for the BD.

Wow lots of good stuff announced. I'll get Sea Of Love for sure.
Elizabeth and What Dreams May Come are also great picks. Since Universal is releasing the Elizabeth sequel to theaters, I'm sure they'll go day-and-date.
Nice Blade Runner flyer too!
And count me in for the 300 BD. No combo and TrueHD - nice.
So no combos for Heroes then? Might have to get it after all.

Some Early Details of 'Hot Fuzz' HD DVD/DVD Combo
Hot Fuzz isn't exactly announced on HD DVD yet but it will be, soon. We've some early details about the HD DVD/DVD combo release in our hands right now. As usual, the main feature is presented in 1080p High Definition OAR video with Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 audio tracks. It will be released day-and-date with the DVD release (which I believe is a 2-disc set.)
Besides that, if you liked the film, then you can expect the HD DVD/DVD Combo release to be pretty packed with supplemental materials. The list includes:
- Deleted Scenes (20 minutes worth) with Optional Audio Commentary by Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright
- Outtakes
- Visual FX Comparison Before & After
- 12 Video Blogs including The Lost Blog
- We Made Hot Fuzz
- Dead Right Special with 2 optional audio commentaries by Edgar Wright, and Nick Frost & Simon Pegg respectively
- Art Department
- Here Comes the Fuzz
- Simon Muggs
- Flip Chart
- Flick Book: The Other Side
- Plotholes
- Domestic & International Trailers and TV spots
We've been told by informal sources (take it with a pinch of salt) to expect U-Control interactive experience feature on the disc, though I'm unable to seek official confirmation on that as yet.

Someone on another forum stated that the flip side to the Blade Runner insert indicated a Kubrick Collection also coming soon to HD DVD and BD.
I can't seem to post it (how does one post a JPEG?), but it exists and shows pictures from Eyes Wide Shut, 2001, Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket and The Shining. They were also indicating at the other forum that FMJ would be a remaster (allegedly). Some were speculating that Barry Lyndon and Lolita might be left off, but I'm hoping that they were just left off the ad, as their images aren't as strong, ad-wise. Hopefully it will be all seven....

Hmmm, well, we may not be getting Barry Lyndon or some of the others just yet. That ad just shows the four titles that have been rumored for the past year or two for DVD release, along with Full Metal Jacket. It may be a mini-collection. Hopefully we'll get a new master for FMJ, but I wouldn't be shocked if it's the same disc.

I'm still holding out hope for Barry Lyndon and Lolita. And given all the bad press they got for FMJ, it seems odd that WB would release it again with the same problem (especially if, as rumored, it does have some special feature content). It seems like the perfect opportunity to fix the problem.

I hope those Kubrick titles are released individually. I only want The Shining. I would be willing to buy the set and sell the ones I do not want, but that would be an added hassle.
