Given the early retail announce, there are no specs or supplement details. DreamWorks PR tells us the full announce will come next week, so stay tuned.

Retail is $39.98 for the HD DVD, and street date February 12, 2008.

Maybe, but I think its getting delayed because of Oscar season. Also the standard DVD was delayed along with it.

You know, that is actually the best insight I have heard on these delays. Both of these could be contender material and delaying them to coincide with nominations makes a lot of sense.

It should be noted that Beowulf has not been delayed from its February release date, and I don't think anyone thinks it is in the cards for the oscars.

It should also be noted that the date changes happened a couple of days ago, even if HDD only now put out a news story. SO I would not read too much negative about the delays.

It sounded like the kind of movie for me that one viewing would be enough. I just got it in from BB Online; plan to watch it tonight & will post my thoughts.
