Hot-Drake-Pixel Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Warner Bros. Release Slate for 2008 and Beyond Our good friends over at The Digital Bits were able to squeeze Warner for a little more information about some of the catalog titles expected to be released on Blu-ray this year. The current goal is to release a Blu-ray version of any catalog film day-and-date with a Special Edition DVD release. This will take some time to implement, but they hope to get that policy up-and-running by the end of the summer. Without further delay, here is the updated list of titles announced by Warner for Blu-ray release. 08Q1 * Bonnie and Clyde: Ultimate Collector's Edition 08Q2 * Dirty Harry: Ultimate Collector's Edition Box Set (Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact, Dead Pool, and Clint Eastwood: Out of the Shadows) 08Q3 * An American in Paris * Batman Anthology * Batman Begins: Limited Collector's Edition Box Set * Gigi * How the West was Won * The Dark Night 08Q4 * A Christmas Story: Ultimate Collector's Edition * Otis: Uncut 2008 * The Adventures of Robin Hood * Casablanca * Clash of the Titans * Excalibur * Forbidden Planet * Heat * Grand Prix * The Matrix Trilogy * Mutiny on the Bounty * V for Vendetta 2009 * Ben-Hur * Gone With the Wind * North by Northwest * The Wizard of Oz * Woodstock As you can see, those missing Warner titles which have been released on HD DVD but not Blu-ray are still coming - including 'The Matrix' trilogy. Warner is discovering that many catalog titles don't have transfers which are good enough for Blu-ray release, including 'Clash of the Titans' (which has been delayed for restoration) and 'Heat' (which Michael Mann has just agreed to supervising a new 1080p transfer). Rest assured, Warner will continue to scrutinize every release to ensure it looks and sounds as good as possible before being released to the public. Speaking of audio, Warner has heard your cries, and they will start releasing all high definition titles with lossless audio. Obviously, the switch to Blu-ray exclusivity makes this move easier, as the format has much more storage and bandwidth. Additionally, any Warner catalog title you hear that is receiving 4k restoration will get a Blu-ray release. Warner spent years mastering their catalog at 1080i, and they are now having to do new masters in order to get a perfect transfer. Some catalog titles will receive 4k restoration (four times the size of 1080p), and any title you hear receiving this treatment will get a Blu-ray release Remember, these are just a taste of what's coming from Warner this year, and there is still a bunch of titles planned for release that they are holding under their jacket, not to mention all the new release titles. But even with the list we have today, its shaping up to be a great year for Blu-ray fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot-Drake-Pixel Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Netflix Goes Blu-ray Exclusive The popular online video rental service Netflix has announced that they have decided to support Blu-ray exclusively for high definition movie rentals. Pointing to the Warner Brothers exclusivity announcement as the main reason for the shift, Netflix will no longer purchase movies in the rival HD DVD format, and once the life cycle for those discs has ended, they will no longer stock the format for rent. Ted Sarandos, chief content officer for Netflix commented, "The prolonged period of competition between two formats has prevented clear communication to the consumer regarding the richness of the high-def experience versus standard definition. We are now at the point where the industry can pursue the migration to a single format, bring clarity to the consumer and accelerate the adoption of high-def. Going forward, we expect that all of the studios will publish in the Blu-ray format and that the price points of high-def DVD players will come down significantly." While only a small percentage of Netflix users rent high definition movies, the majority of those who do take advantage of the services are renting Blu-ray. They expect that the shift to a single format will ultimately allow Netflix to provide a better service to those high definition customers. ---------------------------- I kinda liked NetFlix service. You come in home after a long hard. Open the mailbox and smile comes back to your face as there would be a netflix mail in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
