Weinstien going blu
a TON of blu titles we werent expecting to be coming this year
New Line giving us a release schedule for the next couple months

5:00 PM Pacific was what I heard, that would make it 6:00 PM Mountain, 7:00 PM Central, 8:00PM Eastern

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 10:44 PM

so 8 eastern.... sweet well i cant wait to see what josh and ben write up about it.

manutd2007 · 01-07-2008, 10:44 PM

a lord of the rings announcement would really rub salt in the wound

hardcore_canadian · 01-07-2008, 10:44 PM

I like it when Things Happen in Pacific Time, that way, they're stil not at an Awkward time for the east....Like this is only at 8

Yes...this is random, but I'm bored at Work

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 10:53 PM

lord of the rings announcement would be amazing and i would bet they at least say its coming by the end of 08 but with no exact release date(expect them for christmas of whatever year they release it). I would just like to get some firm titles from them coming such as wedding crashers. I would love to also see Fight Club, Super Troopers, Boondock Saints, and Snatch.

manutd2007 · 01-07-2008, 10:55 PM

An hour away.

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 10:57 PM

well its 7pm here on the east coast so its 1hr to showtime.

miro · 01-07-2008, 10:59 PM

Star Wars on Blu! That would be amazing but won't happen. But just imagine the reaction people would have

. Mostly the reactions given by duders. that would make my year.

manutd2007 · 01-07-2008, 11:01 PM

ah thats alright i'll wait up, just watchin the end of black hawk down on blu, so might stick independence day blu on after this, while waiting

alkalinesi · 01-07-2008, 11:03 PM

im hoping uni or paramount to go neutral or exclusive. and some movies announcments. i wanna hear some news on batman begins and matrix from warner. lotr from newline. and alien set from fox.

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 11:05 PM

batman begins is more than likely going to be released to go along with the dark knight release. Insiders said that there is a chance that batman begins will be re-encoded as well. time will tell. WB stated that Matrix will be released as soon as PiP is worked out completely...expect Matrix for the Christmas season(although it coming out by summer would be amazing)

crystal_sun · 01-07-2008, 11:08 PM

LOTR news would be too soon....since the Warner news was just several days ago.

I would predict Batman Begins and The Dark Knight release, bunch of Sony/Fox/etc releases....

Joon · 01-07-2008, 11:10 PM

I still think that Universal will say something. They have said nothing since the announcement of Warner, I just have this feeling that Universal jumps ship and puts the final nail in the coffin.

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 11:16 PM

The final nail is in the coffin, we are just waiting for Uni to nail it in. I would love to see Uni say something but i wouldnt be shocked if they didnt. One way or another they will release on blu and very soon. Hopefully they have been replicating blu disc for a while now and HOPEFULLY they release a nice large list of titles on the first week(Bourne series, The Kingdom, Heroes, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and American Gangster all day one releases)-> let me dream man!!!! lol

BluRayExplosion · 01-07-2008, 11:21 PM

Is there anyway to watch a live stream? I think this has been asked before, but I wasn't able to locate an answer.

NoQuestion · 01-07-2008, 11:22 PM

that would be awesome if we could watch it....mods? anyone else know?
