Universal Announces Baker's Dozen HD DVD Catalog Titles For June
March 16, 2007

Universal Studios Home Entertainment has announced two waves of June HD DVD catalog titles totaling a whopping 13 in all.

On June 12, the studio will release 'Born on the Fourth of July,' 'Bruce Almighty,' 'Daylight,' 'Liar Liar,' 'Monty Python's The Meaning of Life' and 'Sneakers.' All will be presented in 1080p video and Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 audio, and we suspect include the same extra features as found on the standard DVD release, though that assumption is not yet confirmed.

Two weeks later on June 26, Universal will roll out 'American Me,' 'Being John Malkovich,' 'Bulletproof,' 'Mallrats,' 'Meet Joe Black,' 'Mystery Men' and 'The Watcher.' As with the June 12 titles, each will be presented in 1080p video and Dolby Digital 5.1 audio.

All of the thirteen announced titles will be on dedicated HD DVD discs as opposed to the more expensive Combo Format discs, and as such will carry an SRP of $29.98. We'll update each disc listing with extra features and high resolution cover art as they are made available.
HERE COMES THE TITLES!!!

Again, nothing here to get excited about. I still don't understand why they dont' push out their best in order to sway consumers. With bigger hits being released on Blu Ray, why would a consumer who is on the fence buy into HD DVD if minor titles are being released? What exactly is their plan-anyone have an idea?

I don't think BD is releasing anything better than this. Universal since the start has given HD DVD a great assortment of everything. They have really been the most commited of any studio on any format. Sony has been releasing mostly crap on BD, Fox has postponed 'most' of 2007 so far, and WB and Paramount have really been a-holes by releasing at snails pace so that the BD supporters have titles.

Being John Malkovich has a HUGE cult fanbase, and I think you might be underestimating the popularity of Jim Carrey. I think these releases are gonna do alright until they do release the "heavy hitters."
