That's correct. Its coming out in Canada the same day (as I figured the US version would). Looks like Newline might be back to their old schedule. Freddy vs Jason should be in July as well.

Not to be macabre, but does anyone else think Road House is being time to coincide with Swayze's current situation?

Can't wait for M.A.S.H.! Here's hoping for a big improvement over the SD!

Eff that. Bring on "Airport '75"!

BTW, "The Towering Inferno" was on HD Net about a year or so ago and the picture was absolutely jaw dropping. Let's hope they can duplicat that (or better) for the BD.

Ack. As much as I love Go, it looked horrific on HDNet Movies. I hope it's not going to wind up being a substandard, recycled old transfer like The Thirteenth Floor.

Yeah I watched it as well and it was very meh. I thought Punch Drunk looked pretty good on DVD (from what I recall) so I'm hoping the Blu-ray will improve even more. Never saw Crash S1 but I heard it was decent so baring a huge MSRP I'll blind buy it. Starz/AB needs to get off their asses and release Masters of Horror S2 as well.

Man, it's always so frustrating to me, these days like today when 20-some catalog titles are announced and not a one is on my list.

True... but at least it'll be in High Definition. I guess you win some and lose some. They don't have enough "special" Blu-ray packaging out there IMHO.

Hey, do you know when we can expect this to come out? Is it sometime this summer?

I would say around the end of July to tie-in with Funny People (another Sandler film).

Some pretty crap titles there. "St. Elmos Fire", "About Last Night", 'Freedomland" and "Striking Distance". I'm definitely on for "Snatch". And as per your warning, maybe "Go". A favorite of mine. When will this list of titles be coming?

Go, Punch Drunk Love, and Snatch are all mine. Hot damn, Sony's taking no prisoners it seems.

That's what I'm hoping, but either way I'm just happy to have more Carpenter in HD.
