Booooooo!! Former New Line movie getting released by WB with NO Lossless sound. Not a good precedent for other New Lines that will probably be released by WB like Blade, Austin Powers, Seven, Nightmare on Elm Street, Final Destination, and etc.

WB screws the pooch again.

Awesome movie but this totally sucks. New Line has been doing such a good job on their BD releases

What is WRONG with those "people" at WB. I will not be purchasing any more of their garbage (no HD sound).

MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad for no lossless sound, New Line did an outstanding job with the 7.1 DTS HD Master Audio on previous titles, I had a feeling WB was going to screw up on audio when they took control of New Line. I was really hoping to purchase this title too, as it is a favorite of mine.

Marine Mike · 07-11-2008, 11:57 PM

I'll be boycotting all Warner Bros releases that do not have Lossless audio to it. Therefore releases like Batman Begins I'll purchase it. Its a real shame to hear something like this. I had high hopes after watching Batman Begins.

This totally sucks. I would've bought all of those titles listed above if New Line was still in charge of it. I've been disappointed with almost every Warner release I own so far, but New Line was a different story.

Something must be done about Warner's sloppy work!!!!

OokieSpookie · 07-11-2008, 11:59 PM

So one movie and it is all doom and gloom?
Ease up.

It is NOT one movie Ookie, but a lot of movies with no HD sound. Unacceptable.

TauHeel05 · 07-12-2008, 12:03 AM

I love this movie and was hoping this would come soon, too bad WB is fn it up! Just imagine the opening credits with the Stones' "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" in LOSSLESS! Thanks Warners!

I was getting ready to say the same thing about the "Black Betty" scene.

SeahawxBlu · 07-12-2008, 12:09 AM

It's funny how they pretty much ended the format wars, but seem to be releasing the most inferior titles. You'd think by now they'd have it together.

Totally, Depp with that hot ass white leisure suit on. GREAT MOVIE.

Minimejer05 · 07-12-2008, 12:11 AM

Great movie! Will buy for sure... really sucks about the lack of lossless.

Banjo · 07-12-2008, 12:12 AM

Oh no, I predicted this would happen. No English subtitles for the special features!

New Line Cinema always subtitle the special features, but now that it is folded into WB, it looks like they are no longer being subtitled. Great, way to make these releases more accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing, not only to mention the foreigners too as well.

sfmarine · 07-12-2008, 12:12 AM

Is it a new transfer? Any new features?
