I had a feeling it probably would be being hd dvd exclusive in the US.I'll just have to wait until Universal release it on blu ray in the states.

Anyone know why it's 1080i and not 1080p on bluray?

Thanks

I tried calling Fox Pathe to clarify but recieved a bizarre response.

I checked the output from my Samsumg BDP1400 to the JVC HD1 Projector and its certainly 1080P at 24hz and there is a DTS HD track.
