"Batman Begins" and "Polar Express" on HD DVD October 10; Rhino to release as well (1 Viewer)

From the press release:

Batman will be finally be here! Let's just hope they don't make it into a combo.

Ed St. Clair · Sep 14, 2006

Maybe we will get "HEAD" in HD?!?!?!?! :-0

Adam_ME · Sep 14, 2006

I don't see it being a combo. It's nearly 2 1/2 hours in length. It's got the IME feature. An hour-long documentary presumably ported over from the SD-DVD. And a Dolby TrueHD track.

Bradley-E · Sep 14, 2006

Sweet. Batman Begins is high on my want list.

Batman Begins pushed my Panasonic's black levels more than just about any DVD I have watched. Can't wait to see what the HD will do.

YES, BATMAN BEGINS!

Jesse Blacklow · Sep 14, 2006

Was TrueHD announced elsewhere? It's not in the press release.

Harminder · Sep 14, 2006

YES! YES! Batman Begins in HD! Warner, let there be TrueHD please!

This made my day!

Larry Sutliff · Sep 14, 2006

Finally! The Bat on HD DVD!

Tim Glover · Sep 14, 2006

FANTASTIC news.

This will sell a few Toshibas.....

Ryan Wong · Sep 14, 2006

Great news. The digital screening of Polar Express was absolutely breathtaking. To be able to re-create that experience at home would be dream comes true.

Bluray need to speed up.

BrettGallman · Sep 14, 2006

Finally.

I'll be picking up both Batman and Polar Express.

Batman Begins in TrueHD? That'll be an experience, no doubt.

Tim Glover · Sep 14, 2006

Batman Begins already sounds b-e-a-u-tiful on plain ole Dolby Digital 5.1. Thoughts of TrueHD with this one gives me a slight fear for the life of my home's foundation.

One of the Biggest reasons I bought my HD Player,,
other than of course
the AWESOME PICTURE
INCREDIBLE SOUND!!!

and not to mention the first piece of Home Theater equipment that made me
say WOW!!!!!! in many, many years....

Mike_G · Sep 15, 2006

Nice. Very nice. My wife's been bugging me about when we were going to watch it on DVD and I kept saying "when the HD version comes out"

.

According to Cjplay, who is a compressionist, over on AVS there will be a TrueHD track on Batman Begins. This is secondhand knowledge so take it with a grain of salt but I just thought I'd throw it out there.

Randy Korstick · Sep 15, 2006

They must be saving Harry Potter and Superman Returns for the big November titles.

Garrett Lundy · Sep 15, 2006

What?! I was hoping for Cabin Boy:frowning:

J/K!

Bradley-E · Sep 15, 2006

Cabin Boy is DI$NEY, so it will be Blu Ray.

Mark Zimmer · Sep 17, 2006

Not sure what the point of Rhino releasing HD DVD is; most of their DVDs are from VHS-quality masters in the first place. The tiny optimistic corner of me says maybe they'll upgrade their masters and the rest of me just scoffs.
