It's about time some must-get titles are starting to be announced for Blu-ray in 2009.

I've heard the theatrical versions are being released first, individually, and that a boxed set of the EE will likely be released right before The Hobbit hits theathers.

From High-Def Digest:
https://www.highdefdigest.com/news/...nnouncements/X-Men,_X2_Headed_to_Blu-ray/2411
'X-Men,' 'X2' Headed to Blu-ray
Attention, mutants: Fox Home Entertainment has announced a mid-April Blu-ray arrival for the blockbusters 'X-Men' and 'X2: X-Men United.'
In late 2006, Fox helped kicked off their Blu-ray support with the next-gen release of 'X-Men: The Last Stand,' though the first two Bryan Singer-directed installments where nowhere to be seen.
Now fans hoping to complete the trilogy on Blu-ray can mark April 21 on their calendars, which Fox has set as the date that both 'X-Men' and 'X2: X-Men United' will at last hit high-def.

More 'Clone Wars' Coming This Year
There's no exact date yet, but Lucasfilm says it's planning to bring episodes of the animated Star Wars series 'Clone Wars' to Blu-ray beginning this Spring.
Following the release of the theatrical feature 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' on Blu-ray late last year, the company revealed it will debut the first four episodes of season one of The Cartoon Network series on high-def in late March.
Extras currently being developed for the Blu-ray include "explorations of the behind-the-scenes creation of the hit series," with further details to be confirmed at a later date.
In the same announcement, Lucasfilm also says it is planning a more elaborate, complete season one box set for Blu-ray later this year (timed to coincide with the premiere of the show's second season).
I'll be holding out for the season set.

Re: Blu-ray wins format war
yeah, I'd wait until it's the full season. No reason to buy just the first four episodes.

'Ghost of Mars' to Haunt Blu-ray this March
Sony Pictures has announced its latest catalog release for high-def, bringing John Carpenter's 'Ghosts of Mars' to Blu-ray in late March.

Tech specs will see 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video (2.35:1) and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 Surround audio.
Extras include audio commentary with Carpenter and Henstridge, plus three featurettes ("Video Diary: Red Desert Nights," "SFX Deconstructions," "Scoring Ghosts of Mars").
The disc also comes BD-Live enabled, though no exclusive content has been announced.
Suggested retail price for the Blu-ray has been set at $28.95.

I posted this in the Cheapskate thread, but thought it may have more visibility here... Amazon has Band of Brothers Series on BluRay for $35. Today only or until it sells out...

Re: Blu-ray wins format war
It was a deal yesterday on Amazon. It was in my cart, but I hadn't ordered it yet and I bought a Shun knife yesterday and the top part of my cart had a message that IM BR price had dropped so I snatched it up!
Like I said, I didn't think about posting it as I figured most people had it. But hell, that's still pretty damn cheap. Thats the price of a new DVD now.
Anyone check out Babylon A.D. the new one on Blu-Ray yet?? I want to see it, but wanna make sure it's even worth it first.

Yeah, I'll probably order it at $16.99. I keep hoping TDK will drop that low.

Re: Blu-ray wins format war
Yes, I have a Panasonic Plasma and I wouldn't trade it for anything other than the Pioneer Kuro line of Plasmas, which start at $6k. I love my Panny Plasma and they have amazing CS too!!
My 700U ^^^^ing rocks socks and is one of the best color accurate I've seen and I looked for like a year before I got mine. I suggest the 42" 800U as the smallest TV of theirs and of course the 50" is ^^^^ing tits!!!!
If you are looking into your first HDTV and it's plasma, I can't recommend them any higher. Shoot me a PM if you have some mopre specific questions and I'll hook you up man!!
