[Arkadin]

Check out these rumored titles listed in this UK mag HDReviewmag.
They list among upcoming Q2 HD DVDs--"Se7en", "American Pie", "School of Rock", and "Blade."
Also: the killer documentary "From Earth To the Moon" is listed as coming soon. Now "Se7en" has been hinted at for some time. Cannot remember the studio on that one: Warner maybe?

Are you sure you don't mean "In The Shadow Of The Moon"?

Sorry, no chance of Blade OR Se7en in the UK, both EIV who are BD exclusive. OOPS!!

[Arkadin]

oops. yeah that's the one Sporadic.

btw: just because it's a UK magazine doesn't necessarily mean that all of these are UK only releases. "Se7en" has been talked about as an HD DVD release for a long time. maybe Germany? can't remember.
This mag covers the whole of HD DVD not just UK

Yeah, I did notice that distribution rights are all over the place in Europe for Blade (I did not check Se7en, but it could be the same thing), so it is possible it could be released somewhere in Europe.

Why!!? Whats the difference of having a blue or red case on your shelf? It doesn't really matter as long as you can enjoy them now....i don't get people who bought HD but want to go to blue because of Warner, maybe thats fair enough but its a stupid reason not to continue buying HD as well...

"Se7en" is coming out on HD DVD in Italy. In Italy, the 3 leading independent content providers are exclusive to HD DVD.

Well, that pretty much confirms part of the news story then. Likely Blade will also follow, possibly in Italy as well.

[Nilbog]

Must buy for both, if true! Blade was my first DVD.

I know seven was Italy, as is Kingdom of heaven

Well, unless there are any specific contractual requirements saying not to, the smart move for them now would be to go format neutral. The have access to all of New Line's output so they would make an absolute mint releasing on HD DVD.
