Carlito's Way definitely. Possibly Inside Man since that was a pretty good movie.

Re: Universal HD DVD in October - Wave 1

More info on the Carlitos Way releases over at HighDefDigest.

Good to see Universal adopting TrueHD soundtracks I think Denon's announcement of a 'transport only' platform has woken us all upto the benefits of the new codecs versus PCM.

Re: Universal HD DVD in October - Wave 1

The only film in that list I have seen is Inside Man and I will most likely be buying that one.
