Optimum Home Entertainment have announced the UK Blu-ray Disc release of several titles over the coming months. Dates are considered tentative, particularly those beyond the first two day-and-date titles in April, but this list gives you a good idea of the kind of support Optimum appear to be moving towards…

First up, on 21st April 2008 are two day-and-date releases, Storm Warning and Welcome to the Jungle. Features are TBC, but we expect extra content to match the DVD releases (details here and here).

Moving into June they have plans for In The Valley of Elah on the 2nd, My Blueberry Nights on the 16th, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane on the 23rd and Diary of the Dead on the 30th.

We suspect these last four titles will be moved around considerably, as the tentative release schedule actually lists In The Valley of Elah for 12th May, but we already know this is incorrect (with 2nd June the most recently announced date).

And finally, although we're still waiting for some official word, the complete lack of any HD DVD listings for these titles does suggest that Optimum will follow Toshiba's decision to drop support of the format.
