Holy shit, $130 for the Matrix Collection? That comes out to about $91 if Amazon has the standard 30% discount, that seems a lot higher than when it first came out on HD-DVD.

Cool, thanks. I wasn't too worried about the PQ on these, Sony is the most consistent studio going right now.

Excellent! Hope this sells halfway-decent, bring on the Sinbads & Jason! Mysterious Island too!

Pretty sure you're right. The HD DVDs can still be had for just a fraction of that, now, too.

Thanks, always nice to see people who work for the studios participating here.

I'm cool with waiting if it's done right. I'm sure like many others here who bought into HD, this DNR (Detail Not Relevant) shit is starting to close up my wallet.

the $10 difference in SRP is likely due to the Animatrix being in hi-def now.

Hmm . . . looks like they're going to be including a digital download copy of part one, also.

Also, you may not want to get too excited about Ghostbusters quite yet...

Why was "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" delayed?

Nice. Glad they're packaging Ghostbusters 1&2 together. Now let's see the price.

Is that Apatow 3-pack confirmed? I still don't see any pre-orders available for it.

OK cool. I definitely don't want to pre-order them all separately. Plus there should be a nice price break.

$44.99 at Amazon. (Probably a mis-price, but I've never seen Amazon not honor something like this.)

If you're referring to that link, I believe that's only SD not BD for $44.99.
