Just press 'em on Blu, my mailbox will be open, I will send you a check....

No kidding. And please re-encode all of the movies before pressing the Blu-rays. We require high quality video with lossless audio. It should not be a problem because there is plenty of room on Blu-ray disks.

And please don't forget about your wonderful partner studio called Focus Features. I'll take ALL those movies starting with In Bruges.

We welcome you Universal Studios and we welcome you back Paramount. You movies

Bourne on HD DVD looks amazing. Uni better go blu right guys?

Gideon · 02-17-2008, 12:00 AM

Just give me Jaws and I will be very very happy.

NoQuestion · 02-17-2008, 12:01 AM

Once Universal goes blu, expect the bourne series to be the first titles they bring to market, unless they bring some day and date ones first until they can get thier encodes to the quality we expect from bluray. Only time will tell and it looks like the time is almost up!!!!

The encodes for the Bourne series are perfectly fine so I could see them bringing those first.

I wouldn't mind some films that haven't been released on HD DVD, like the Jurassic Park trilogy, Jaws or The Shadow.

Septimus Prime · 02-17-2008, 12:25 AM

I pretty much just want Bourne and King Kong. And if The Pianist is Universal, I want that too.

Otherwise, I want you to convince your boy Paramount to come back. Thanks.

Slapper · 02-17-2008, 12:34 AM

Serenity, Bourne, Riddick, and Battlestar Galactica. They better remaster BSG or there will be hell to pay.

bone crusher · 02-17-2008, 01:06 AM

I want American Gangster sooo bad on Blu.

I second that since I didn't see it in the theaters.

Blu Titan · 02-17-2008, 01:13 AM

There's over 50 movies from Universal that I would buy on the spot. Come and get it $$$$$

wnicholas76 · 02-17-2008, 01:34 AM

I want the Jason Bourne movies, Hot Fuzz, Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin (unrated, of course!), Brokeback Mountain, Chuck and Larry, Land of the Dead, The Mummy movies (including the 3rd Mummy movie out later this year), American Gangster, Wanted, and Hellboy 2 (since the first Hellboy is on Blu-ray from Sony)!

Slackr89 · 02-17-2008, 02:45 AM

bourne trilogy mainly.

Kaixa · 02-17-2008, 03:01 AM

All three Mummies and the first 2 Jurrasic Park.

Minimejer05 · 02-17-2008, 03:04 AM

Dont we all.

dialog_gvf · 02-17-2008, 03:11 AM

Bottom line: Universal have been complete fools failing to, and many times deliberately being beligerent about, delivering product to 2/3 (and far more overseas) its of its target customer base.

There are MILLIONS of eager customers waiting for Blu-ray optimized releases with lossless/LPCM audio. Let's hope they finally get off their collective asses and start to deliver.
