Nothing was said about a separate release, "skew" referring to the aspect ratio.

Zack, I think it's safe to say that Michael wouldn't use the word "skew" to refer to aspect ratio. When that bit from the article was quoted in pertinent part at blu-ray.com, the editors chose to spell out what Michael was pronouncing phonetically: "SKU." Google it if you need more info. I think he's referring to a separate "IMAX" BD release--as in, it will have its own UPC and be a version like the current TDK BD in that the IMAX sequences will be presented at 1.78. To some folks' elation, I take it there will be another release that will be 2.35 for the entire running time of the film, even the sequences shot with IMAX cameras that "open up" to occupy the entire ~1.4 aspect of the IMAX screen (IF you see it in true blood 15/70 IMAX not the IMO inferior digital IMAX with much smaller screens).

It didn't occur to me he could be saying SKU, and that does make sense, but it's still a large assumption to make. Given the context of the sentence I still don't believe this is any indication of separate Imax/non-Imax releases.

Is there any news on when we might see Transfromers 2 released on Bluray? I am going to assume that this title will most likely include a Dolby True HD track.
