Whew. Nice to see Life Of Brian just got bumped back about 6 weeks. The HDD article didn't mention a new date. Couldn't care less about I Know Who Made A Shitty Movie.
I wonder if Sony will do a Resident Evil box on 1/1.

The Rock (Blu-Ray) 1/8
(this, Con-Air and Crimson Tide are already available on region-free Blu-Ray in the UK if you are impatient. I have a feeling the other two U.S. version will show up on 1/8 as well.)

This has been posted in an appropriate thread, but thought I would mention it here as well:
Paramount has recalled The Jack Ryan Collection, and it won't be released on 10/23. The extras listed on the packaging were not on the HD DVDs.
No word yet on if this recall is simply to fix the packinging or actually re-press the HD DVDs with the missing material.
A future release date has not yet been announced.

Disney has apparently made a New Year's resolution to reschedule all of its previously-delayed Blu-ray action titles, issuing a January 8, 2008 release date for 'Con Air.'
As we reported earlier this morning, 'Con Air' was one of a trio of action titles (alongside 'The Rock' and 'Crimson Tide') that were originally scheduled for release this past June, only to be post 613]subsequently yanked[/post] from the studio's schedule with no new dates in the offing.
ADVERTISEMENT
Now, after weeks of rumors, the studio has confirmed that 'Con Air' will be among its first 2008 Blu-ray titles, hitting store shelves on January 8, the same date as 'The Rock.' (Note that the studio has yet to confirm a date for the third title in the trio, 'Crimson Tide,' but it's currently expected sometime in February).
A full press release with complete details for 'Con Air' is due shortly, but Disney did tell us that the disc will include the studio's usual 1080p video and an uncompressed PCM 5.1 Surround track (at 48kHz/24-bit).
There are no supplemental details available yet, but we'll certainly keep you posted.
Retail for the Blu-ray will list for $29.99.

The Shoot 'Em Up discs will have exclusive content for both versions. Looks like the BD is also the first 7.1 DTS-HD-MA disc.

I really hope the Rock has some of the extras included with the set, I can't wait then it will be time to retire my letterboxed VHS.
