Considering that it's Warner, I expect the usual mediocre Warner PQ.

I can assure you we won't get skimped on the audio. I believe it should be TrueHD and PCM on all 5 discs.

Terminator 3 should be hitting Blu-ray this Q4 (maybe even in September) as well with lossless PCM and TrueHD tracks.

Yes, I posted the news about Blade Runner yesterday. The upcoming box set is supposed to have the "Final" edition, which is Scott's version (apparently the Director's Cut wasn't it), the original theatrical version, and the International Cut.

aren't two more movies still left to be made for Harry? I would rather buy a boxset when it is complete.

Yep and agreed. But oh the temptation! :-)

I hope they just release a basic Box set of the Harry Potter movies too. I like the movies but I don't need all the extras.

$149.99 Harry Potter Box set, so that should cost about 104.99 on Amazon.

Blu-ray Discs can be expensive so Amazon (and the occasional sale at other stores) is the best way to go if you don't want to rent them - at least 30% off.

Great news!!! On the downside these will be huge sales for HD-DVD this year too, seeing as there won't be much else to buy in the holiday season.

Anybody know if BLU's capable of putting out the 3D stuff from the IMAX version? Saw that last night, damn near 50 bucks for 3 tickets, but well worth it. Can't wait to see what Zemeckis does with Beowulf in 3D.

u_nick · 07-17-2007, 11:21 PM

Sign me up for the Potter set!

Especially if I can get the setfor a decent price as discussed above. Otherwsie, I may consider getting 3-5 standalone, and worry about 1 & 2 later, since 3-5 are really my favorites.

AMEN brotha.

According to Ken Graffeo at Uni, there's no money on the table for this kind of thinking. What a fool. Other studios are making HD work for their bottom line.

I think the Uni Board and Shareholders will start having second thoughts on going Blu soon.

Just saw Order of the Phoenix yesterday. Great movie! I want all these on blu-ray.
