Re: NO LOTR In HD-DVD Then!

I thought New Line Cinema (and HBO) were NOT affected by the Warner BR exclusive?

Re: NO LOTR In HD-DVD Then!

AFAIK Newline have announced they are also going BR exclusive following Warners...

Although there is still very little in the way of actual release dates and certainly no mention of LOTR on either format just yet.... but fingers crossed.
