Sony Announces Second Day-and-Date Blu-Ray Release with 'Ultraviolet'

Mon Apr 17, 2006 at 09:03 PM ET

Sony has announced their second Blu-Ray disc title to debut simultaneously with its standard DVD release.

On June 27, the studio will unleash the recent Milla Jovovich action-thriller 'Ultraviolet' in a new Unrated Director's Cut. No supplemental features or disc specs have yet to be released, though the film will be presented in its original 2.35:1 theatrical aspect ratio, and as with all of Sony's current Blu-Ray releases, will be encoded on an HD-30 dual-layer disc at full 1080p video resolution.

The release is the second day-and-date with DVD Blu-Ray release, following 'Underworld: Evolution,' which Sony will debut on June 6.

Sony has priced the disc at its new release MSRP of $38.95.

HD-30 dual layer disc?

DO these people think Sony is doing HD DVDs?

It's articles like this, written by author's who don't fact check, that are only adding to the confusion caused by these two formats. I certainly expect that what was meant was that the Sony BDs will be 50GB, dual layer discs.
