Thats what you call a Halloween movie

Now does this mean we will get another bunch of announcements like we got from Paramount before?

Chris60119 · 06-24-2008, 04:23 AM

I'm excited about this one. I loved it in the theatre.

JDNB · 06-24-2008, 05:42 AM

I will order this as soon as it comes up for sale on Amazon. A great movie I can't wait to see in blue.

Paramount has a date to announce Todd, and several others. Thanks to dvd empire for prematurely taking pre-orders, they will probably now announce it sooner lol

MOONPHASE · 06-24-2008, 06:03 AM

just traded in my dvd copy just before this announcement that is kind of weird but hey im glad its coming out to Blu this year

Several including Transformers even though its been announced publicly? But sooner like how long? Sorry for my impatience but just curious

+1 the import steelbook is sweeter

I've watched the UK Blu-Ray, and it's very, very good. The dark palette is beautifully rendered, with tons of detail. Things like water on black brickwork remind you why you got a Blu-Ray player in the first place.

I'm very excited to finally get and see Sweeney Todd. I missed it in the theaters and have been waiting for Blu-Ray. Only 4 more months...

Things like water on black brickwork remind you why you got a Blu-Ray player in the first place. THE TWELVE by Stuart Neville "The best first novel I've read in years. It's a flat-out terror trip." - James Ellroy (L.A. Confidential, The Black Dahlia, American Tabloid) "Not only one of the finest thriller debuts of the last ten years, but also one of the best Irish novels, in any genre, of recent times." - John Connolly (The Reapers, The Unquiet, The Book of Lost Things) Harvill Secker/Random House (UK & Commonwealth), Soho Press (USA)
