I still have the HD DVD, but I'll get this eventually.

I have the HD DVD as well, but probably won't get this in the near future.

I can't see myself ever wanting to upgrade this... I doubt I'd watch it that often at all. But the Score was great, and having that with DTS-HD MA is tempting. But of course I won't upgrade this one - I haven't even watched my HD DVD.

Yeah, I know. When I saw news for this. I thought that they couldn't be too far behind. No pun.

Uni was shooting for a Feb release but looks like that has already passed. I've been holding off watching the second Elizabeth in anticipation of the BD release. They my hold off until The Curious Case...hits BD though as that's the next film coming out soon on BD starring her they could "tie" into. (Though I would say March 17/24h seems a likely date)

3/17 or 3/24 for both "Elizabeth" films AND "Benjamin Button"? And yes, hold off on the second "Elizabeth" until BD.

I'll only purchase the first Elizabeth when it comes out on Blu-ray as I thought the 2nd one was quite laughibly bad.

Re: Brokeback Mountain March 3rd 2009

Got the HD-DVD for like $5 at a fire sale, so I don't think I'm going to double-dip, but it's great news for everyone else and Blu in general. Great film and terrific cinematography.

One of the few movies IMO that Ledger was actually good in.
