Dances With Wolves damn well better be a BD50 with an advanced codec because either way you split it (theatrical or extended), it's a looong film with difficult to compress scenes (like the buffalo stampede).

Hooisers, Silence of the Lambs, and Dances with Wolves are three of my favorite movies. I've been format neutral but between these titles and the upcoming Disney titles, it's getting harder and harder to stay that way. :(

Here's the first paragraph from the man room:
"According to online retailer DVDEmpire.com, Fox will be distributing four MGM Blu-ray titles on March 13 in addition to the four Fox titles annouced this past Tuesday."

He's just quoting DVDEmpire. Was there an official announcement?

Its not official, but that place has come through before. If I recall their rumor of X3 was correct.

While Fox is doing a great job with the distribution, MGM decides what titles to release and when. Just FYI!

Will there be a Silence of the Lambs Collectors Edition on Blu-Ray(new DVD version just released with tons of extras on it)?

Probably in a year or two, once everything the format promises is working and the players are all up to snuff.

Now if only MGM decides to not be morons and stop charging new release pricing for their catalog titles.

Great titles, but $28-30 is ridiculous. And that is Amazon/Walmart pricing.

Not for the one coming out in March. Its a barebones BD at Fox/MGM prices, so a pass for me. Shame, a BD version of 'Lambs' loaded with the Collector's Edition bonuses would have been too tempting even for me to pass. The sticker shock and lack of extras makes avoiding this BD release a no-brainer. :(

No it was announced a while ago, before CES (which added Hannibal as well).

I think you need to blame Fox for the pricing!

Are we going to go through the money grab once again like we did with DVD....the initial HD version....the Extended version....the Extra Special Version!!!

I see NO reason why the extras should not be included in these releases. Maybe a way for the studios to sell DVD AND BD/HD DVD? Offer special extras only on one format vs the other?
