Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
don't have the link at the moment, but I've been surprised that no one else has mentioned this yet. I think the news may have come out of the VSDA in Vegas. IIRC, Image has plans to support both formats, likely to start up in 07, and the Rod Serling Twilight Zone sets will be among its first releases.
ever since I heard the series was gettig remastered in HD, i've been expecting it to show up. I've only got the first two seasons so far, so its not like I have a huge investment in it- and would likely upgrade.
in any case, its great news that Image is on board, and hopefully Criterion will follow soon after that (I would love Walkabout or Black Narcicuss as much as any other studio release at this point, I think)

I'm not buying this series for the third time which is why I'm glad these players upconvert.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
I'm disappointed it's not the Twilight Zone movie.....
Rachael, the big disc cat! I used to be looking for Hi-Vision Laserdiscs & D-Theater tapes, now I'm looking for HD-DVD's and Blu-rays.
I survived the AFI top 100 Film Challenge! I've seen them all.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
Wow, this sounds awesome. I was just watching the TZ marathon on Sci-Fi on the 4th of July (like I always do). I always held out on getting these on DVD, and this release adds to a growing list of reasons for me to take the HD plunge.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
Speaking of the Twilight Zone Movie....
I expect Warner will have it out in '07 as well. I would
not be surprised if it was also made available on HD-DVD.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
Jeff,
Don't take my post as gospel.
But consider this....
During our last chat with Warner the studio admitted they knew
the demand for The Twilight Zone Movie and that they
had a few more hurdles to go through to get it out -- but were
awfully close.
I could easily see a release next year on both formats.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
I also will pass on this. having already paid a good chunk of change for the definitive sets, they are good enough.

Re: Twilight Zone to be one of Images first HD DVD/Bd releases
Those that have both HD-DVD and BD players can be the test subjects for side by side comparison. A little expensive but the world of those sitting on the fence waiting for a winner needs to know.
