Netflix hints at shaun of the dead and hot fuzz blurays..per sussudio - Blu-ray Forum

Graytwhyte · 03-13-2009, 07:48 PM

...That Netflix has changed the format option for Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz from DVD only to include Blu-ray as a format option? Availability is still unknown, but hopefully this means a release date isn't far off.

dvd_mazter · 03-13-2009, 08:55 PM

Ya, those are still two titles Universal has to play catch-up on. I can't wait for them to come out and I read that the quality on both HD-DVD versions of Shaun & Hot Fuzz are great.

Sussudio · 03-13-2009, 09:00 PM

lol and why couldn't this thread be called "netflix hints at shaun of the dead and hot fuzz blurays"

to answer your question, i noticed that too (at least on hot fuzz)

i'm sure everyone including myself has been waiting for these! i hope hot fuzz has everything the 3 disc dvd set did

Brad1963 · 03-13-2009, 09:06 PM

Universal must be about to announce them. I noticed that the Blu ray option has also just been added for Inside Man, Red Dragon, Children of Men and Van Helsing; all of which are supposed to be released in June.

Add Seabiscuit, The Big Lebowski, In Bruges, Unleashed, Assault on Precinct 13, Waist Deep and Cinderella Man to this list of Blu ray option being added.

Amazon UK shows Inside Man date as June 1. I wonder if they will be released June 2nd; the same day Sony releases the Clive Owen film The International on BD.

Brad1963 · 03-13-2009, 10:55 PM

This is the list of Universal films I found with a Blu ray option on Netflix. I pretty much did a search from the previous HD DVD releases. Does not necessarily mean they are about to be announced. Quite of few of these have strong coming soon rumors in place. I guess we'll just see.

The Big Lebowski
Children of Men - rumored June
Inside Man - June in UK. Perhaps US will be the same.
Seabiscuit - Best Buy Blu ray promo does show this is coming to Blu ray
Cinderella Man
Hot Fuzz
Shaun of the Dead
In Bruges
Assault on Precinct 13
Unleashed
Waist Deep
Red Dragon - rumored June
Van Helsing - rumored June
Alpha Dog
12 Monkeys
Notting Hill
Fletch
Bruce Almighty

Bruce Almighty
Shaun Of The Dead
Hot Fuzz
Churrn Of Men

I'll take all four ASAP

The Guilty Party · 03-15-2009, 03:51 AM

I don't know how much a hint this is considering that NetFlix has a Blu-Ray option for movies such as "The Wolf Man" (2009) and "Inglorious Basterds" (2009). The Wolf Man doesn't hit theaters until November so I'm not putting much stock into this but hey... I want both Hot Fuzz and SOTD on BD so I appreciate the hope.

PepeGameblouse · 03-17-2009, 04:59 PM

I like both of those movies. I really like Inside Man

Highlighted titles have been announced for Blu ray. Maybe Netflix is correct that these are coming. Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead could be a reality sooner than later.

Brad1963 · 03-26-2009, 07:01 PM

AMAZON UK lists HOT FUZZ (Universal) on Blu ray for July 27. I'm begining to think the U.S. release will be sometime in June early July.
