Dissapointed by Blu-ray support in Aus

[dinoslino]

I went to JB-HIFI yesterday, hoping I 'd be able to buy, 2001 Space Odyssey, Shining and Clockwork Orange. All titles, were supposed to be released on 5th of Dec here iz Oz. To my suprise, none of them were available for BD and I was told that release date was postponed until further notice.

alexander , beerfest , deliverance , purple rain and troy were all slated for release in sep but they were postponed until now yet they are still missing in action as well as the titles you mentioned.

everyone is talking about how if warner goes blu its going to win the war well frankly maybe if they release their titles on time they might get a bit more support here.

I've noticed that with some of the previous releases, too. Usually (perhaps with the exception of KB) I've seen them on shelves within a couple of weeks.

i was looking through the HD-DUD releases and these all were released on date as well as troy, purple rain, beerfest etc mentioned in other posts and also the blade runner is coming to HD-DUD only while the only warner titles that BD is getting till next march at least is the HP movies
IF WARNER IS READING THIS I'LL JUST SAY ONE THING WTF!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Blade Runner is coming out on Bluray too, so it is NOT an hd-dvd only release ... try to get it on amazon or something.

it happened at jb hifi they are a massive chain it's been reported at one store but ezydvd a massive dvd online store has taken the said warner titles off their sales list saying release date unknow while the hd dvd copies have been sold.

Blade runner is only listed as coming out on hd dvd when it was listed before as both blu ray and hd dvd.

if harry porter does'nt come out next week on blu then something is up until then who knows.

So at this point in time Warner Bros is exclusive to HD-DVD here in Australia.

Can't f#@$!* believe it.
