I shall be picking up quite a few of those titles. Its a shame (but hardly unexpected) that they haven't included any TrueHD soundtracks.

Lost in Translation and maybe The Frighteners for me.

Seems like the leaked list may be accurate.

How about:

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie,
I swear to God, don't start with me...or I will shoot him and I will dump him
in a ' swamp!

Or

Where's Jack Walsh?

He got off with the other guy
two or three stops ago.

His real name's Mosely.
- I'm Mosely!



Brilliant film

Re: Universal announces some titles for May 29

Midnight Run for me!!

I only have the old non-anamorphic DVD so this should hopefully be a huge improvement!

Mind you, the opening scene of Lost in Translation would be nice in HD....if you know what I mean!!!
