Universal has announced the Bourne Trilogy on DVD for November 4. Geonosis over at blu-ray.com had mentioned earlier the BD set would get a November release. Looks like we have the date.

DVD Talk Legend
For those of you who want I Am Legend but have not yet bought it, you have the option of a collector's edition coming this fall. Yes, really.

On top of that, who is going to spend 50 dollars on a double dip, when the original Blu-ray with the same picture and sound is selling for about 15?
Warner, please take this double dip and your digital copy and shove it up your collective rear ends.

I Am Legend was the worst blind buy I've ever had. But I'd still have to recommend the Blu-ray. 2 different versions of the film and tons of features. Don't see any reason to double dip.

I hope everyone skips the I Am Legend double-dip. The 1-disc looks and sounds great, and it's been $18.99 on Amazon since day 1 of release.
Personally, I'd rather get a double dip of something like Training Day with the TrueHD audio.

The Rocker --> October 14th
If any movie could be called the anti-Dark Knight, it's this. Seven weeks after this one hit theaters it's on DVD and Blu, after an absolutely horrendous theatrical run. Further research into why the turnaround is so quick shows that it debuted at #12 on 2,700 screens, and last weekend hit #22 with the same amount of screens and a ~$350 per-screen average.
