I dont want to sound like a ass monkey on couple of these titles... But I'll believe it when I see it.

I guess the same could be said about all the titles above though.

Not much for me:

Beowulf
Appleseed: Ex Machina

Prior to the release date. I don't have a specific day at the moment, though.

I need to decide with which format to go with now that i finally got a hdtv. dont know if i should go blu ray or hd. Probably will go with Blu ray since i can get the ps3 which would also serve as a blu ray player. I could also just get the PS3 for blu ray and get an inexpensive HD player. Does anyone in here know a good inexpensive HD player I could get or even a inexpensive blu ray thats not a ps3.

Unless you know for a fact you won't be trying to take full advantage of next-gen audio on Blu-Ray, stay away from the BDP-S300. Sony seems reluctant to give it the same audio support its other machines enjoy. Sure it's $100 cheaper than a PS3, but for $100 more, with the PS3 you get Profile 1.1 compliance (and likely 2.0 in the future), next-gen audio support, not to mention a pretty decent gaming machine.

I truly believe the PS3 is the best bet for Blu right now.

On the HD front, your options are Toshiba and rebadged Toshiba.

A3's can be had for $200, and at the very least are good upconverting players, so it's really not a huge risk.

^Thanks for the info. I figured the ps3 would be the best bet for blu ray

GROOVY!

I plan to add these to my collection, all on BD....

3:10 to Yuma (2007) (Lionsgate)
Gone Baby Gone (Buena Vista)

Run Lola Run (Sony) - I'll wait on reviews

Independence Day (Fox) - keeping my 5-Star Collection copy
No Country for Old Men (Walt Disney)
Bonnie & Clyde (Warner) - I hope that this is an amazing release
Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (Image)

There Will Be Blood
No Country for Old Men
Juno
Darjeeling Limited
The Namesake
Gone Baby Gone
American Gangster

Don't know if all of these are going to HDM, but they are likely to be picked up by me if they are.

I'm looking forward to The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. I can't wait.

Into the Wild

That's a Fox title so likely it won't be released on Blu-ray. I'll buy either the DVD or the Blu-ray.

Anybody know any updates as to what is planned for Smallville Seasons 1-4? I remember hearing they were on WB's agenda but I havn't kept up to date with news lately. These are what I am really waiting for!

as a HD-DVD supporter I'm looking forward to Zodiac DC... of course I am hoping that some other titles will pop up in other countries that are HD are well.

I agree that the selection so far announced is pretty pathetic.
Very few "must buys" for me.

Where's Lawrence?

Nothing specifically from that list. More looking forward to being able to enjoy all movies now, rather than just the selection on one side.

The Pianist
White Noise 2: The Light
Appleseed Ex Machina
Shoot 'Em Up
3:10 to Yuma
30 Days of Night
Coyote Ugly
Hidalgo
Unbreakable
Across the Universe
Run Lola Run

Still waiting for....

Universal to release Legend (Tangerine Dream)

F X to release Xmen and Xmen 2

I'm really hoping that New Line releases the Blade Trilogy.

Juno was mentioned at that High Def 2.0 conference about a month ago, the one where Disney said Finding Nemo was coming. It's just too soon for them to officially announce it.

In addition to what has been said, I'm hoping for New Line to start releasing some catalog titles. I suspect some of their more popular ones may have to be redone though, as the transfers are several years old (going by the last DVD releases). I wonder if that is why they didn't get into HD sooner.

BEOWULF!

APPLESEED!

THE ROCK!

CON AIR!

3:10 To Yuma!

from the list of what's been announced, there's only a few I'm really interested in;
Zodiac (blind buy)
The New Frontier (blind buy)
Bonnie And Clyde (semi blind buy)
Adventures Of Baron Munchausen (upgrade)
Michael Clayton (blind buy)

in addition, I wish I had pre-ordered Run Lola, Run while I still had my extra 10% discount, as I'm finally developing an interest in seeing that again (after like 6 years). Guess I'll just wait for a summer BOGO now.

Hopefully some decent classics make it out (like Wizard Of Oz or Ben Hur, or things of that caliber). 2007 was a decent year, but I still felt a little undernourished in that area.

I just saw the Iron Man trailer on the Transformers HD-DVD and was reminded that this is a Paramount release. I'm definitely looking forward to getting Iron Man and The Dark Knight on HD-DVD. Hopefully these will be out by 4th Quarter '08.

I'm looking forward to the following HD DVD's:

Zodiac (ordered)
The Pianist (ordered)
White Noise (ordered)
King Of California (ordered)
The Brave One
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (ordered)
Into the Wild
Things We Lost In the Fire
In the Valley Of Elah
Michael Clayton
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Beowulf
American Gangster
Bee Movie
Fletch
Bonnie & Clyde
Twister
