Looks like a solid rental for me.

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part III

Just took a few rays of blistering green light to the eyes. Overpar, mind spoiler-tagging that post for the sight sensitive?

Amazon also has a "Trilogy" pack featuring House of Flying Daggers, Curse of the Golden Flower, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon available on July 14th -- likely a throw-together of past product. Wish they'd go back and doctor the rather "blah" transfer for Flying Daggers, but that's not likely to happen.

^I have the UK import of that and it looks/sounds excellent for those interested in the title. I assume Sony used the same transfer for the U.S. disc.

A year-long delay for no reason. Gotta love Sony.

Yes, I'm sure there was absolutely no reason at all. It was an entirely arbitrary decision.

"Hey, you know that product we're going to release? Why don't we not?"

"Hmm... okay!"

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part III

Blu-ray.com has the announcement for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, coming out on July 14. Unfortunately, it appears it's only available in a 3-pack with Curse of the Golden Flower and House of Flying Daggers.

FWIW Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is being released separately in the UK, also by Sony.

Oh, there was a reason, but its better left unsaid at this point. Don't need to see the same two people defend who magically find any negative Blu-ray news and swoop in to put a stop to it.

In other news, Sony has re-announced a few other delayed titles
Mona Lisa's Smile
My Best Friends Wedding
Maid in Manhattan

Also delayed roughly a year ago. These already came out in the UK and most people were pretty happy with the PQ/AQ.

Those 3 aren't announced in the US. I see they're up on Amazon (without dates), but....

They will be very soon. Amazon already has them re-listed with prices.

They won't be? Amazon has prices - just like what happened with:

The Dark Crystal
Labriyntho
Punch Drunk Love
Go
St Elmos Fire
About Last Night...
The Deep Blue
Freedomland
Snatch
Starman
Striking Distance
...and many others. Amazon tends to jump a bit quicker on putting titles up before official announcements get out because its possible Sony has not settled on a date yet but alerted retailers. Some of the titles above still don't have official dates yet because studios are still shuffling around their plans to see when is best to release a certain film (tie-in).

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part III

^ but does that the pre-order number factor in at all? (i.e, high pre-orders might be released first?)
