Delayed though it may be, Sony WILL roll out Blu-ray discs. I personally saw hundreds of Hitch DVDs being put together, labeled and packaged.

Packing is fully underway, cranking out 25,000 discs per day

The company invited media members to visit its DADC optical disc manufacturing facility in Terra Haute, Ind., where 25,000 single-layer 25GB Blu-ray discs are made per day. All discs currently in production are single-layer 25GB, while dual-layer 50GB Blu-ray disc are expected to hit the market by mid- to late-October, according to Sony executive vice president/general manager Mike Mitchell.

Over $120 million were invested in the production of Blu-ray discs, said Sony Disc & Digital Solution president Dieter Daum.

I believe it. I nearly collided with Sony-made robots several times during my factory tour. I'm not sure exactly what the robots' functions are, but they seemed very busy.

Blu-ray players are expected to hit the market in late June.

Good to hear! Now I just wonder who's going to buy Hitch on BD?

I'll buy it.

I've got it on DVD and honestly that movie is a lot better than the reviews that it received. Kevin James and Will Smith work very well together. My gf and I enjoy it and have watched it a few times. I'm glad to know it's a launch title.

Me too. I'll buy it, all the while doin the q-tip....q-tip...

Kevin James is classic.

I thought it was an okay movie. I'm glad to hear that there's interest for this movie in HD. That's what's great about the launch titles... there's a little something for everyone.

LOL that scene killed me man.

I'll buy it, if it retails for $15.

What I'm looking forward to is BladeRunner on BD, since the DVD version wasn't a very good transfer, apparently.

Any guesses on Bladerunner BD release?

2007?

2008?
