for the Jack Ryan movies, although I'm suspecting they won't have anything new in terms of bonus material. One can only hope the Star Trek movies aren't far behind.

I expect that Paramount will only be bringing out the Jack Ryan movies in their "collection" and not as separate releases...disappointing for those of us who, as usual, just want the first movie. Oh well, at least there's always eBay or waiting six months until they release them separately.

But hey, two discs for Face/Off? Great news.

Josh Z

Was thinking the exact same thing.

Drexl

I'll be buying Face/Off and maybe Top Gun out of the Paramount titles and Immortal Beloved out of the Sony titles. I would love to just get The Hunt for Red October out of the Jack Ryan movies.

I hope they're wrong about IB only having a featurette, since there was a commentary on the DVD. I have a feeling it's there, because I don't know of any Sony titles that have dropped a commentary.

Hopefully, the Jack Ryan movies are seperate. I hate this "collection" crap they're trying to force on those who want to get specific titles but don't want to six months for them to be sold seperate, like the Mission Impossible flicks. I just want Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger.

JayDerek

excited about Face/Off but a little bummed the Jack Ryan films are together as I'm only interested in Red October.

Supermallet

I'll definitely get Face/Off.

RockStrongo

Thanks to jigga for the hints some time back on this....I sold all my Jack Ryan DVDs and Top Gun in anticipation!! JR Collection and Top Gun are must-buys for me.

Doughboy

Actually a whole bunch of Sony Blu-ray releases have dropped the commentaries.

Fincher Fan

Sign me up for Face/Off, Jack Ryan Collection and Top Gun!

Mr. Cinema

He did say Top Gun would have TrueHD (HD DVD) and PCM (BD) tracks. But there are some users at AVS who are saying a Paramount rep there told them they favor DTS HD MA audio.

Acting Up

Any word on The Invisible? Seeing as I didn't get a chance to see it when it first came out I'd love to be able to watch it in HD. I don't think it even had a release for DVD, but knowing if it'll come out on HD DVD or Blu Ray would be nice

I am afraid that WB will probably do the same box set crap for the Ocean's movies in Q4.

lotsofdvds

Which ones?

Doughboy

xXx
House of Flying Daggers
S.W.A.T.
A Knight's Tale
Little Man
Donnie Brasco
Arlington Road

I limited it to just Sony titles. There are plenty of other Blu-ray titles that dropped the commentaries. Fox is one of the worst offenders.

lotsofdvds

Geez, I'm glad I haven't started selling off those yet. Has there been any explanation as to why they were not ported over?

Josh Z

Laziness.

Or, they want you to buy the DVD edition as well to get the bonus features.

Drexl

I thought they usually kept them because all of the Sony titles I have kept it, including a couple that kept the commentary although other features were dropped.

mdc3000

If it gets an HD release, it'll be on Blu-ray...and just FYI, it's probably the worst movie I've seen this year (out of over 50 movies - it's a toss up between this, primeval and dead silence)... just terrible from start to finish - you've been warned.

Giles

you must not have seen 'Epic Movie'...

'Saturday Night Fever' to Boogie to Blu-ray, HD DVD This Fall

Paramount Home Entertainment has announced it will bring the seminal '70s classic 'Saturday Night Fever' to Blu-ray and HD DVD this September.

One of the most influential films of its era, 'Saturday Night Fever' turned John Travolta into a star, scored the Bee Gees an unprecedented string of No. 1 disco hits, and single-handedly made the world safe for white polyester leisure suits.

Paramount has set a September 18 bow for the film's high-def debut on both Blu-ray and HD DVD.

Though no specs have yet been announced, the next-gen versions will debut simultaneously with a new 30th Anniversary Edition on standard-def DVD, so we can only hope for a wealth of new bonus content.

Paramount has set a retail price of $29.95 for both versions.

PerryD

What about Grease?
