After much wait, Disney has finally set a May 13 arrival for 'The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe'

Tech specs include 1080p video and PCM 5.1 Surround audio (plus English, French and Spanish DD 5.1 and subtitle tracks).

Full extras are to be announced shortly, but early details include two audio commentaries and the "Creating Narnia' multi-part documentary, with more to come.

Retail is $34.98.

Well, full specs haven't been released yet but it looks to be okay I suppose. I was kinda hoping for the extended cut (which we still may get, but I doubt it) as well as some of those bonus features from the 4-disc edition. I will still be picking this up. Should look great in HD.

Should be a good looking BD. I'll pick it up after Predator, ID4, Ice Age, and I-Robot.

I never saw this in the theaters (no real interest), but went ahead and borrowed the DVD. I was surprised by how much I liked it, and I'll definitely be buying this.

I'm hoping for the extended cut too, because I don't want to be double dipping for it again on BD...
