I just need to know what format these DVD's will be on.

Deer Hunter
First Blood
Black Hawk Down (I heard Blu-Ray only?)
Gladiator
Commando
LOTR Trilogy

Cheers. :)
 
From what I've heard so far:

Deer Hunter HD-DVD (I think this may be out now)
First Blood HD-DVD I think (I'm sure there is a boxset out or coming soon)
Black Hawk Down (I heard Blu-Ray only?) That's what I have heard as well
Gladiator Not sure
Commando Not sure
LOTR Trilogy HD-DVD

I don't usually take much notice of Blu-Ray at the moment.
 
http://www.highdefdigest.com/

has a fairly good list of released blu-ray and hd-dvd films as well as release dates, though I think it mainly covers US releases.

Deer Hunter - out on hd-dvd

First Blood - out on blu-ray

Black Hawk Down (I heard Blu-Ray only?) - out on blu-ray

Gladiator - its a universal film I seem to recall so HD-dvd

Commando - Fox film so blu-ray

LOTR Trilogy - believe its coming to both hd-dvd and blu-ray. I'd wait as I recall reading the first release will be the cinema version and not the extended version you can get on dvd.

first blood is ou on hddvd mate
 
Is there any website with a search box where you can just type a film and then get details on which format it'll be on?

How about Collateral, Heat, Top Gun, Girl Interrupted, Coyote Ugly :o , Single White Female and Saving Private Ryan?

It seems that it'll be a while yet before i even show any interest in buying either a Blu-Ray or/and a HD-DVD players. I was even considering the PS3 primarily for the Blu-Ray player but it seems a bit pointless seeing as the first 8 films i would but are mixed between the two formats! :(

What happened to the rumour about the players with both a BluRay and HD-DVD built in?

I do know that all films will be either format. I just thought that it's sods law that the films i most want are split between HD-DVD and Blu-Ray! :)

There will be dual format players out anyway, so it won't matter after a while.

That's good news. I really wouldn't want to buy both a PS3 and an Xbox360.

Would the dual format players have 2 different draws in one machine or just have one drawer that takes both the HD-DVD and the Blu-Ray discs?
