So, some sanity....
The list of titles and my useless ass opinions of their getting a HD-DVD release.
ABOVE THE LAW This hasn't been watchable since VHS.
ALEXANDER This won't be watchable until tru-life interactive holographics allow you to sit on the bed with Angelina Jolie, having deleted the snakes from the scene. A good behind the scenes feature then will let you walk up to Oliver Stone and ask him how pulled off a film sucking this bad. Film students will learn much.
ANGELS IN AMERICA (HBO) Don't care.
AUSTIN POWERS: INTERNATIONAL MAN OF MYSTERY (NEW LINE) The current DVD is pretty.... doesn't matter if I can see ever pore on Mike Meyers...
BATMAN BEGINS WB's thinking ahead...
BLADE (NEW LINE) This film was very pretty in the theater, and never owned up on DVD.... Size mattered.
CATWOMAN The format is doomed.
CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY More forward thought.
CONSTANTINE : SOLD!
CONTACT : DITTO. I'm proud of this selection.
DARK CITY (NEW LINE) More courage.
THE DUKES OF HAZZARD A different kind of courage???
ERASER Now you're trying to make me sick. There were two people in this room. One eryudte movie geek with taste, and the idiot putting Alexander and Catwoman and this shit. It's a shit movie. Disagree? How MANY times have you NEEDED to pop this off the shelf and watch it. I've NEVER heard after it's release, "I've been meaning to pop in Eraser again, those were good times!" Never.
EXECUTIVE DECISION Will once again remind us it was made.
FINAL DESTINATION (NEW LINE) Ooooo Death in Detail!!! Will it look REALLY fake in HD???
FRIDAY (NEW LINE) ...
FROM THE EARTH TO THE MOON (HBO) I loved this series... but like Eraser...
THE FUGITIVE I'm there.

SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS For every toddler who can tell progessive scan DVD players from not, and who are really whiny that Spongbod doesn't get a crisp enough definition or that NTSC really bleaches out his spongebob yellowishness... Christ. Incredibles is a family film that should be here, this is like the Care Bears movie... any of them.

DANTE'S PEAK
A list like this without Titanic, Koyanisquatsi, Hunt For Red October, Die Hard, Finding Nemo, the Lion King, Akira, Blade Runner and ALL HOLY TRILOGIES (SW:OT and PT, LOTR, and Indy)
These are movies that will be bought on HDDVD no matter how many copies the owners have. Okay, maybe not Koyanisquatsi... definately not, but Best Buy and Circut City could by copies to demo TV's with.
