With Universal being HD-DVD exclusive at the moment, there's no prospect of a Blu-Ray version of the 'The Thing' anytime soon. As for the title being worthy the price of a HD-DVD player alone? Well, for PQ it currently sits in the middle of the Tier 2 table at AVS: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=705387 And here's a good reviews from HDD: http://hddvd.highdefdigest.com/thing1982.html If/when i decide to dip my toe into the HD-DVD pond, this will certainly be one of the titles i do it for!
