Some of these imaging companies like Lowry would be able to do a great job with it. We definitely need more documentaries on Blu, probably more than any other genre.

If you're into dramatizations and early American history, the HBO mini-series John Adams will be released June 16. I can't wait for this

And of course 300 and Troy are very good if you're into ancient history 300 is an amazing story and one of my favorite movies, really inspirational with a great message and great action, but very brutal scenes of course considering the weapons and tactics at the time...

I hope you're aware that the actual battle of Thermopylae was 10 times worse than what happened in 300. 300 was essentially a few of the battle tactics, some of the key figures (although not portrayed historically accurately), and all of the major quotes all rolled into an otherwise fictional movie. I, personally, am still waiting for a much more accurate portrayal. I refuse to spend money on 300.

I would like to see Rome on Blu-ray.
