Props to Paramount for going all out on those $40 titles. If only Fox could learn something from this.

Only thing missing is lossless audio ...
|
Can't wait for Coming to America. All new HD extras? I think Paramount is quickly becoming the HD king of studios. Now if they would only pick up their release schedule...
|
Paramount always seems to get more negative comments than they deserve. New Line gets a free pass, even though they have 0 titles announced. Paramount titles have been pretty consistant. I love that they push for those 2-disc sets on day & date titles. Dedicating 1 disc for the movie and 1 for the HD extras. Transformers should be loaded when it's released as well and most certainly has potential to be a top demo.

I still haven't opened my Special Edition with Ice Pick pen DVD yet, so I'll probably pass.

So maybe we'll finally see 16:9 transfers for Weeds instead of the way LG fucked it up on DVD.
Definitely getting Basic Instinct-glad I waited for the domestic release. I CANNOT wait for Coming to America and Trading Places.... |
$20 for Weeds isn't too bad either. I know it's a short season, but it's still nice.

Is Weeds any good? I've only caught a few minutes on Showtime. At that low a price, it might be worth a blind buy. Now gimme L.A. Story in HD, Lion's Gate.-pray- |
:up: for basic instinct. I'll definitely be picking that one up. Looks like all the extras are there, too.
My old version had DTS anyway ;) |

I never imported the HD DVD. Same reason. The speed-up. I am definitely thinking about getting T2, though, if the speed-up isn't there. I'd much rather get that for better quality and spend the extra money. |

Weeds is a hilarious show. I can't wait to get it on HD.
|
I also love "Weeds". I have only rented the first season on DVD, but the transfer was so bad I decided not to buy it. I am very happy to see it will be coming out on Blu-ray. Now if only they would do the same thing for Brotherhood, that would be awesome.

What is "Weeds"?

Coming To America, Trading Places, Dream Girls, Mission Impossible 1 & 2 (solo releases) have been added at DVDEmpire for both BD and HD-DVD.
Enter The Dragon and The Dirty Dozen for Blu-Ray have also been added. |
Very happy to see The Fountain officially announced for 5/15 on both HD and BD. As usual, I'll be avoiding the $5 extra combo and going with the BD.
