one of the first movies released should be T2. Its always been one of those movies that were used to pimp new formats. Laserdisc, DVD, DVHS, etc.

Agent Plissken

"T2..."
Yes, and they have a 1080P master to make the HDDVD from.

How do they fit HD quality full length on to a 4.7 GB DVD?

so they're not going after the blue laser tech.

raimin

hd-dvd is a blue laser technology

so is blu-ray

2 competing standards, isn;t that always the case

johnnymk

Swordfish?
Troy?
Wild Wild West?
These are some of their best movies? Even technologically? I don't watch these in standard DVD.
