When will we see X-Men 3 or any of the X-Men movie in HD? (1 Viewer)

[Dave Moritz]

Has there been any news when we might see any of the three X-Men movies available in HD? These are three movies I would personally love to see available in ether HD-DVD and or Bluray. I would especially love to see a lossless surround format like DTS-HD or at least Dolby True HD used with these movies.

Why not the first X-Men film, too?

I can also see them doing the same thing to this release as they did with the first X-Men title. It looks as if X-Men 3 will not have a DTS track unless you have a region free player and buy the dvd from Europe. I own the first two X-Men with DTS tracks and I am not to happy that X3 will not include a DTS track on SD-DVD. I am also having trouble finding information regaurding any actuall HD release of X-Men 3. Do you have a link for info on X-Men 3 coming out in HD?

I would love to see more information on those titles like will they include a Dolby True HD or DTS-HD Master Audio track? I would love to own ID4, Master and Commander and X Men Trilogy with a DTS-HD or at least a Dolby True HD track, that would be awsum.

You should know that Blu-Ray titles are region coded (unlike HD-DVD).

 

[MarekM]

they were only announced, no mention if it will be worlwide, that means in all 3 regions A, B, C or only in region A (US&Japan)

This will be one of Blu-ray's show off releases so I expect to hear something about this title coming on BRD in Region 1 during the next couple of months.

Superhero hype had some pics of the X3 bluray menus a few weeks ago.

The SD DVD does include a DTS ES (6.1) audio track for Region 1. I was surprised by this as it was not indicated on the box (or at least I did not see it when I was looking to buy it). But rest assured, there is a DTS track on the SD DVD version releasing next week. And the track is excellent.

I did a small review in the HT software - movee section if you are interested.
