Re today's news from TVShowsonDVD.com that the LegendaryHeroes website is taking pre-orders for the first season of Highlander on BluRay, and also planning on Xena and Hercules:
LegendaryHeroes has been discussed on this forum before for their outrageous high-pressure sales tactics, which include phoning past customers incessantly, and operators who will say and do anything to excite a person into buying something.
In short, they are absolutely not a trustworthy source of information.
Highlander, Xena, and Hercules may indeed come to BluRay. But until they're being sold by Amazon, or someone gets some inside scoop from someone working on them, I would not give this news another second of thought.
I would also like to know -- if this news is true -- whether they're planning to just put the 480i episodes onto a BluRay disc and calling it a day, or if they're actually going to be HD. Questions I am sure LegendaryHeroes would not be able to answer.
Highlander: The Series was shot on film, but the special effects sequences (mainly the quickenings) were probably rendered on video. And I wonder if the series was edited on video as well.
