Fox announces new titles for Qtr 1
From Blu-ray .com
In an early announcement to retailers, Fox Home Entertainment has revealed that they will bring 11 of their best selling catalog titles to Blu-ray early next year. As these are unofficial announcements, technical specs and special features have yet to be confirmed, but we can very least assume these titles will receive the typical Fox AVC video and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack treatment.
The barrage of titles kicks off on January 13th with 'Mirrors: Unrated' followed by 'The French Connection' a week later on January 20th. Skipping into February, Fox releases four comedy titles on February 3rd - 'Little Miss Sunshine', 'Napoleon Dynamite', 'Office Space: Special Edition With Flair!', and 'Sideways' - followed the next week on February 10th with 'Raging Bull' and 'Donnie Darko: Collector's Edition'.
The following week, on February 17th, Fox will release 'Passion of the Christ', followed on February 24th by 'The French Connection II' and 'Vanishing Point'.
Add these to the previous announce Q1 titles from Fox, and you see an extremely impressive line-up coming from the studio. Save up that holiday cash, you're going to need it early next year.
Edit: Looks like 'Ronin' on February 24th as well.

Wow all those titles for February.
I am a little concerned we will have a repeat of early 2007, when tons of great titles were announced and 1/3 of them made it out. Hopefully the issues that caused that to happen or no longer an issue now.
