Speaking of Warner, looks like they've finally picked up the ball on lossless audio for Blu-Ray. We Are Marshall has been listed at DVDEmpire for a 9/18 release with TrueHD for both formats.

Some heavy hitters there. The Pirates' films might come in a trilogy box, the same discs obviously but w/ a box if that kind of thing is of any importance to you. (I'm waiting) Hopefully we'll see a Spidey trilogy set as well.
Loved Surf's Up, figured it'd get a BD release.

Amazon lists it as 96 minutes and unrated, so that would make it the extended cut.
Looking forward to this one.

Didn't the head of Dreamworks Animation already declare that they had no interest in releasing on either HD format? Until I see an official announcement from studios, this list smacks of wishful thinking.

Yeah, I'm not really buying that either... though certainly Shrek 3 would be the title for them to start with.
So was the Galapagos series not very long? I just assumed it would be a multi-disc set... Might make a good companion piece to Planet Earth me thinks.

wouldn't make sense for Fox to release 'Nightwatch' as well (

We started getting emais asking about HD releases almost immediately after we posted news that Smallville season 6 would be released on September 18. Now we have some exclusive info from Warner Bros - they'll release season 6 on Blu-ray and HD DVD on September 18, the same day as the DVD.
Both sets retail for $79.98, and contain the same content:
Both sets will contain 1080p video (1.78:1), with the Blu-ray release sporting a Dolby Digital 5.1 track, and the HD DVD release containing a Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 audio track. Blu-ray flexes its additional capacity on this set; the Blu-ray release is 4 discs while HD DVD is 5. Here's a look at the artwork:

Awesome news about Smallville. I watched all of Seasons 1-5 on dvd and not once during their first-run on tv. Season 6, I watched the premiere then got sidetracked, so it'll be nice to watch the whole season in a week's time period.
No mention of an IME feature on the HD DVD.
