This is up for pre-order in R2 now, with a March 18 release date listed:

Any more info on a R1 release date?

I'm more inclined to believe the March date. Reason being is that retail has seen preorders for American Pie 2, Fast and the Furious, etc. My point being that there is a boat load of pretty decent titles coming in January and their preorders have come and almost gone. Certainly a Jan. 29th date would've preordered by now.

Tino - I'm with you. I'd sure like to catch this one on the big screen first. If you hear anything, let me know!

Ryan,

I was sort of thinking that too. That maybe they would just give up on the rerelease costs and bump the DVD up as a more cost-effective and possibly influential method of gaining a nomination.

I do believe that method works, but the real test might be Moulin Rouge which will street just in time to get in the heads of those who will be nominating it.

I figure a kick-ass DVD has to blow away the lame VHS screeners that have been getting handed out.

A.I. seems a shoe-in for effects or art direction, imo. Not sure about Jude's chances as the field could be pretty tight this year. Personally I really enjoyed the film, but I think it's future is looking bleak Oscar-wise.
