It seems some of the French Studio Canal HD-DVD releases have been postponed. Among them are The Graduate and Mulholland Drive.

Amazon are now saying September 2007. B@stards. They nearly sucked a preorder out of me too.

So in other words, they dont know!!!

dkny75 · 03-20-2007, 04:40 PM

Here's a little update. The French Studio Canal releases have been pushed back to May 2 due to something concerning AACS however they are still scheduled for release in Germany in March

http://hddvdformat.blogspot.com/2007...vd-titles.html

The first wave of Fox Pathe titles will not work on the HD-A1 & HD-XA1 with firmware 2.0 installed. Hopefully this is fixed in the future.

The UK release of Ran has been postponed.

The Spanish release of American Haunting has been postponed.

Momentum and Optimum are still HD DVD supporters and have not announced otherwise.

Hope this helps.

Shawn Watson · 03-20-2007, 08:26 PM

Total Recall HD is also due out the same day as the Rambos in the UK.

Just watched the Spainish version of Underworld Evolution and it looks and sounds amazing. Don't have Blu-ray so I can't compare but I'm pretty the lossless sound on the BD sounds better.

Anyone gotten Hannibal HD-DVD from France? What audio options does it have? And being Universal, is it a safe bet to come out here this year anyway?

snipsnapsappy · 08-22-2007, 09:39 PM

Hannibal is MGM/FOX here, so it would be BD only.

Also, anyone catch Pan's Labyrinth on Cinemax HD this past week? It looks incredible.
