Spotted this over on AVS.
They're newly listed in the Movies on HD DVD - coming soon section.

Brilliant. After The Searchers more legendary Wayne movies. Can't wait to see some other westerns appearing too, even The Magnificent Seven! Can you imagine that in HD? I want to see all the detail of McQueen's face!

I'm sure you have the HD release of Bullitt then Plenty of detail on Steve McQueen's face there

I'd read about the new 2 disc SE remaster of Rio Bravo but there was no word about a HD-DVD release but after the gorgeous The Searchers I'm up for any more classic westerns on the format

Just watched The Searchers again last night and seeing it in HD breathes a whole new life into the film again Assuming that WB does a similar job with the transfers of Rio Bravo and Cowboys, I can't wait for these two JW movies to be released.
