Blu-ray release announcements - Part IV

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part IV
From the Rumor Mill that mentioned the Paramount dates, The Digital Bits also said the Trek films from the current box set will be available separately when the new film and Next Generation set arrives.
I think I may wait and pick up some of those when they are available. I don't want all of the films in the current set. And, even though I don't care too much about cover art, I would rather have the theatrical cover artwork instead of what they used in the set. The white background with a crew member's huge face is kinda blah.

You won't see the "director's cut" releases until they re-release them a couple years from now....they still have to re-render all the new effects in ST:TMP into HD first....

Def. in for EFLA and 48 Hours, pass on the rest.
K-19? Varsity Blues? Really? WTF, Paramount? Where's Once Upon a Time in the West? Bastards..

Wow where's the love for Deep Impact? It was the thinking man's Armageddon of 1998.
Regarding OUATITW, I saw this recently on HDnet and it did not look that great. Maybe they're using the transfer which sourced the SCE DVD for the broadcast, but I would think this would need some work for it to shine on BD.

Damn, those Paramount catalogue titles suck hard. Maybe The Firm if I can find it for under $10, but zero interest in the others.

Hell Duvall and Freeman are enough to make the whole cast of Armageddon look like amateurs.
BTW, I'm not trying to say Deep Impact is a sci-fi classic or even a great film. But using absurd to describe Deep Impact in defense of a movie like Armageddon....well that's a little absurd.
And PS, I would buy Armageddon on Blu.

I have all the films on DVD so I just imported the Khan standalone... I believe it was $20-$21 after dollar-to-pound conversion. Probably around what they'll be when they come over here. They're region-free as well. You can bet your bottom dollar that the Next Generation films will also be available separately when released so you can save yourself from the drudgery of Insurrection and Nemesis. heh.
Never will I ever own Star Trek V again on any medium.

Wallace and Gromit: The Complete Collection is up for pre-order at Amazon (no street date though) and I wonder if its really "complete" - with the most recent short: 'A Matter of Loaf and Death'

Hey I'll put the cast of Deep Impact against the cast of Armageddon any day.

I haven't seen Armageddon in a long time so I'll probably enjoy it the next time I do see it. I sometimes feel like DI only has so many viewings left in it for me.
