Haha, sweet. Hopefully this is the start of a trend.

kiskiboy97 · 02-27-2008, 06:12 PM

Sweet news! Image is proving themselves a good little studio.

Brain Sturgeon · 02-27-2008, 06:18 PM

I am standing here beside myself.

lnh_boy · 02-27-2008, 06:19 PM

Hello Bozo!!

lnh_boy · 02-27-2008, 06:19 PM

Beautiful stars, better see!

u_nick · 02-27-2008, 06:30 PM

You have GOT to be kidding me.

I am ridiculously filled with joy right now.

JasonR · 02-27-2008, 06:32 PM

One word...

Awesome!!!

glenn22 · 02-27-2008, 06:32 PM

Ha! that's awesome. I love that movie.

DetroitSportsFan · 02-27-2008, 06:32 PM

Nice retail price. Should be around $14.99 in stores.

Now I just wonder if the PQ/AQ will be up to par.

jk1138 · 02-27-2008, 06:33 PM

Cool, This is a must buy.

WickyWoo · 02-27-2008, 06:34 PM

Sounds like a co-production with Fox

Fox got the rights back from Image, and I guess IMage grabbed the domestic rights in exchange for the international rights to their extras package

JBlacklow · 02-27-2008, 06:37 PM

Well, I guess their mothers really aren't snowblowers after all.

Laserlips!

JYD59 · 02-27-2008, 06:38 PM

Cool!

NO DISASSEMBLE!!!

This has to be a marketing stunt to cash in on the Pixar movie this summer that looks like Johnny 5.

This was a decent movie and all but I can think of 1000 other movies that should get released on blu first.

owa · 02-27-2008, 06:47 PM

I love this movie and haven't seen it in several years so this is great news! Hopefully it'll hold up well in hi-def.

GoBlu08 · 02-27-2008, 07:07 PM

I can't freaking wait for Short Circuit. When is the official statements coming from these companies.

Damn it - I watched it on SD DVD at my fiancee's parents three weeks ago...with no surround sound.

I figured it wouldn't be out for a long time on Blu, so what the heck.

Good flick - it was still enjoyable.
