HD DVD movies that need a Blu-ray release

[DiRTDOG]

Now that HD DVD is almost dead how long do you think it will take for the movies that are exclusive to HD DVD will be moved to Blu Ray? I really want to get the Bourne series and Batman begins and others. So what do the people here think?

[Minimejer05]

I say by Dec we will have everything availible on Blu.

We should probably start seeing some major transitions and studio movement occurring around March/April. I would say add another 6 months to that. It should definitely be in time for the holiday seasons.

I don't know.........let me start a new thread to ask about this for the umpteenth time already.

Please use the search function.

First off, Welcome!

Hopefully we will see these movies before the end of the year the sooner Universal and Paramount switch the better. However, mgonzo2u is correct in that you should search the forums, but he could have been more tactful. I would encourage you to browse/search the forums as this is being discussed elsewhere.

Well by the end of the year for sure but if either Paramount or Universal go blu, then the other absolutely will too. Remember the rumor that Universal were waiting til Feb to make an announcement due to a contract. God hope its true!

Excuse my manners.

Welcome to the Best Damn Blu Ray Forum On The Net (BDBRFOTN).

Welcome!

Whatever you do, DONT use the search function. Threads like this make me happy because it shows me how many new people sign up each day.

But back to the question at hand. WB said they were prepping Matrix and Batman Begins, so I would be surprised if we dont see them by June. I think Batman theyll want in stores around time the sequel is ready to hit theaters. Matrix is a trilogy so I assume theyll take their time.

I hope it's true. If it is, I can get The Fast and The Furious Trilogy on Blu!!!! Sweet!!!!! Steven Spielberg will be happy to release all his movies on Blu.

Warner has already announced that they're coming.

Patience.

[mystiksuicide]

I think by April all studios will have announced the they're support of blu, movies might take awhile if they encode them correctly.

Hopefully will start seeing them by December.

Thanks for the great info I cant wait to start building my BR collection now. I also hope that the prices come down also. Maybe not in the DVD range but $30 is a lot to me. I have to be choosy on which movies I buy unlike DVD I just buy them LOL. But I no longer buy DVD because I am spoiled with BR now hehe.

/me uses search...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but 2 years later I still have like 2 dozen titles that haven't been ported over to blu. I know we are in a recession, but come on already!

Yeah, Warner and Universal need to get it in gear.

Forbidden Planet, The Sting, and Mutiny on the Bounty are top on my list. Spartacus has been announced.
