Default Irony: The first film on DVD is also the last known HD-DVD release.

The film's name is called Twister from Warner Bros.

Like I said in the title: IRONY!

Source: http://hddvd.highdefdigest.com/releasedates.html

P.S. Warner is still under contract to release HD-DVDs until May 31, 2008 for those who is not keeping score.

There's no guarantee Warner will still be releasing titles for HD-DVD by the end of May.
