Batman Begins and The Matrix

[DealsR4theDevil]

Yet another thread about this. Not really though, this one is a little different.
We already all know those releases are HD DVD exclusive even though their Warner and we all know they are not coming any time soon to Blu-ray. What I am curious about is why. I tried thinking about this and it doesnt make sense to me. I mean, the transfer is already done, all they have to do is shove it on a Blu-ray disc and sell it. Thats easy money to be made with little work involved.

However, if they wait, then by the time they release these titles on Blu-ray, the transfers might look worse by comparison to newer Blu-rays. As we all know the newer Blu-rays look better than the early ones, and this may be true agian a year from now with todays releases being compared to next years. Batman Begins nd Matrix are already pretty old HD DVD releases and the longer they wait the more of a chance there is that they will appear as worse transfers to consumers because of other movies they can compare them to at the time. But that part may be a strecth.

Waiting for The Dark Knight to release Batman Begins so they can promote The Dark Knight also seems kinda pointless, since the Blu-ray crowd that will buy Batman Begins wouldnt even make a dent in the international box office for The Dark Knight, nor would Blu-ray sales make a difference to DVD sales.

And The Matrix, there is nothing to be gained here IMO. No new ones are comig out to promote. This is it. Why not release it?

Just because they have so little work to do to release these and because just about every Blu-ray owner would buy one, I dont see why they would wait.

All I could think of is they dont want those 2 taking away from newer Warner releses. But then why not just chose not to realse anything but this for 2 weeks. It will sell like crazy and cost them very little to release since the transfers are all done.

Iono, why do you guys think these have yet to be released?
