Well this surely is an insignificant release but its as close as we will get to getting Buffy on Blu-ray any time soon.

This really is not insignificant because it adds another studio that releases movies on blu-ray.

July interview with David Borshell, Image COO:

HM: Image has released three music titles in HD DVD(a) and four films on Blu-ray Disc with Discovery Channel(b). Is the distributor remaining on the fence or taking a stand, entering the fall quarter?
Borshell: By Christmas we are contemplating bringing out live concerts of R. Kelly, The Moody Blues and Roy Orbison: Black and White Night on HD DVD. With GalleryPlayer (a distributor of visual imagery and photography in high-def), we will distribute four additional Blu-ray titles.

HM. Why haven't you released your own content on Blu-ray Disc?
Borshell: Probably due to [business] relationships [with HD DVD]. It's not that we are against Blu-ray, it's just that so far we have supported HD DVD as a company. We are looking at supporting both formats after January.

HM: How have the results been thus far?
Borshell: We would honestly expect the results to be better. I think that independent programming in the early part of 2007 has had a difficult time getting nationwide support at retail because everybody is so focused on the major films. We have not found our way onto the shelves of the retailers we would like.

HM: So the format war is not so much of an issue as shelf space?
Borshell: The independents an Image have to continue to work hard to bring out the best quality possible and work with the retailers and get them to bring independent, special interest programming in rather than just the major studio stuff.

I'd asked in the insider's thread about where Image was heading, but nobody bit so far.

So Im glad to see Image putting anything out. Hopefully this will lead to more releases and eventually
(many years down the line I don't doubt) the HVE properties I want to see. I need to see Fukasaku films in hidef.

I saw the trailer for this movie this past weekend. Although it's definitely a romantic comedy, which is not my favorite genre, I may have to give it a shot. Alec Baldwin has been amazing in some of his recent comedy performances, especially "30 rock".

You mean Alec Baldwin, the head of the Film Actors Guild???

My amazon pre-order still says it should ship on January 15, wich is today, but the item itself is listed as backorder.. So were there too many pre-orders or did they just not receive it yet ? I checked DVDEmpire and its back-order too.

[Moonraker]

I went to check my order for Went To Coney Island On A Mission From God...Be Back By Five, and it hasnt shipped and the product page is gone. I don't know what happened there.

[owa]

I don't think they received it yet. I didn't see it anywhere locally and haven't been able to find it anywhere online either (in-stock, that is).

[dragons lair]

Netflix has not shipped out my rental copy yet either, but Mr.Woodcock mailed out.

[Ice2Dragon]

My copy of this didnt ship out either..

And im pissed THE TEN didnt either.. and its nowhere to be found in stores either.

ARgh, damn amazon.

[nordic217]

Mine has not shipped out either. I ordered this with Good Luck Chuck. Hope it ships out by the end of the day!

This title was pulled and did not have a new release date announced just days after it was initially announced (source: moretonbay).

I got mine yesterday but Amazon listed the title as being released on February 5 so I guess they sold more than they anticipated. That movie is WONDERFUL.
