Dave,

You're way behind. :)

That must have been a rather old article (end of August?). The "money to side HD DVD" has been dispelled and was widely and thoroughly discussed anyway.
And the recent discussion in this thread is about NL going neutral, because, as they say, they're following their parent company Warner.

Some New Line rumors..

New Line Titles in the works - AVS Forum

"Well since Mi Casa Multimedia is doing the soundtracks for New Line, just like they did with DVD, I took a gander over at their website. They list quite a few new 7.1 soundtracks in development for HD and all are New Line titles. Looks like we'll see:

Harold and Kumar 2
The Golden Compass
Money Talks
Frequency
Nightmare on Elm Street
The Butterfly Effect
A History of Violence
Rush Hour
Rush Hour 2
The Last Mimzy
Dark City: The Director's Cut
Tenacious D The Pick of Destiny"

Oooh Dark City: The Director's Cut finally!
htf_images_smilies_rock.gif


A History of Violence is a very good film, don't think I'll be buying it though. Elm Street is a maybe during a BOGO sale. The rest of the list doesn't do much for me.

A bit suprised that the Blade films and The Mask aren't being prepped, they seemed a shoe-in to me.

No mention of Se7en is a bit dissapointing but I'm not so surprised at no mention for LOTR. I'm starting to think that we'll have a Star Wars/Indiana Jones-like wait for these. :thumbsdown:

Nice to hear that there are other 7.1 titles are in the works. :emoji_thumbsup:

I am very interested in owning:
  • Frequency
  • A Nightmare On Elm Street
  • The Butterfly Effect
  • Rush Hour
  • Rush Hour 2
  • Boogie Nights
Granted my top New Line Cinema title is going to have to be Lord Of The Rings! :D

I am also asuming that the above mentioned titles will include a DTS-HD MA track.

Ditto - of the list presented, those are the two with the most appeal to me.

Two other NL titles I'm hoping to see on BD sooner rather than later - P.T. Anderson's late-90s masterpieces Boogie Nights & Magnolia.

Would love to have Dark City however they must keep the Roger Ebert commentary track! It's one of my favorite, and arguably best, commentary tracks available.

Indeed, that along with the Michael Jeck commentary of Seven Samurai (Criterion) are true gold standards by which all commentaries could be judged.

I would be all over Dark City, and it HAS to have the Ebert commentary. It can hold its own with a Criterion commentary any day!

I liked Dark City, but not enough to purchase it. Not crazy about their first batch of titles - I'd like to see their next batch. I'd buy Boogie Nights, Magnolia, The Sweet Hereafter, Short Cuts and Night on Earth in a heartbeat.

It seems we've been waiting for years for that Dark City: Director's Cut. Would love to see it in HD.

IIRC, Ebert said he recorded a new commentary for the Dark City: Director's Cut a while ago, as in pre-health issues in 2006 "while ago". I don't think he was clear on whether he recorded the whole thing over or just the newly added parts.

Hmmm... If New Line is only providing DTS-HD/MA for all their titles going forward, guess I'm gonna have to shop for a new prepro. :frowning: Seems like they don't even include a DTS 1.5Mbps core, if Hairspray is any indication...
