There has already been both a thread in this forum and a news item on the front page about this title as well as all the other Warner CE's coming up.

FYI, there is a standalone Blu-ray of this already released quite some time ago. It has gotten middle-of-the-road PQ/AQ ratings in general. If this is the same disc but repackaged with the cookies cutters and other fancy stuff, I will pass.

There's no thread about this specific title. It's mixed in with the other WB titles.

Thanks for playing.

Your story that you linked in this thread is not about this specific title either. The story is a less specific rehash of the one posted on the main page here recently. Thanks for playing.

Mine gives a release date.

That makes it more specific than any of the others.

Game over.

Tell me if it's a new disc or the old one with a bunch of extra junk and I will concede victory to you.

I'm still curious how it will be released, if they meant in that boxset or just a digibook version. Does it mention the Blu-ray version?

None of the Blu-Ray versions will be boxed sets. We're only getting the books.

Casablanca, Band of Brothers, A Christmas Story, I Am Legend, and 300 are all boxed collector sets for Blu-ray...

"Also coming in time for the holidays from HBO, just as we anticipated, is the Band of Brothers mini-series on Blu-ray Disc."

"A Casablanca: Ultimate Collector's Edition box set is also coming to both DVD and Blu-ray Disc."

"...an I Am Legend: Ultimate Collector's Edition box set will be available on both DVD and Blu-ray Disc..."

"A 300: Limited Collector's Edition box set will be available this fall on DVD only... The studio tells us that a much more elaborate Blu-ray Disc version is currently in production for release in 2009, complete with new BD-Live and Bonus View content."

"A Christmas Story: Ultimate Collector's Edition will soon be announced... We're waiting to hear if any new disc-based content will be included, but we do know that this will also be released on Blu-ray Disc format."

The big question is if it is a new transfer/encode.

totally agree.
If Warner just rehashes this title that would be pathetic.
here's hoping for good news on this one.
