Thanks,

Just on Blu-Ray, AFAIK: http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/bluray/ It's presently listed there in 'Movies'. Apparently the same format in Great Britain.

The last I heard, the only movies yet to be released on HD-DVD, were the movies that were already scheduled before HD-DVD was dropped. And several of those were cancelled. The whole format was dropped (not just the region 1 portion), so don't expect many new releases.

That movie is from Sony, so it's very unlikely it would have came out on HD-DVD anyway.

That's a shame, I heard rumors it was coming out in Germany....

The license for HD format in Germany is in HD-DVD. However, due to the death of HD-DVD from Toshiba, the release of new titles was dropped and so was the 30 Days of Night HD-DVD release.

Amazon.com has a list of upcoming HD DVD releases for the USA. Just go there and go to the Movies section and then select HD DVD. The last releases are scheduled for very early in May. Some companies pulled the plug on HD DVD already. Tai Seng was scheduled to release "Dragon Tiger Gate" as their first HD DVD release and they canceled it at the last minute, prompting speculation as to the possibility that they may have simply just scrapped already pressed discs (nobody knows). I know that some mastering company was in the middle of preparing Star Trek The Original Series season 2 for HD DVD when Toshiba told them to stop. That was not finished and will not ever be released on HD DVD.

http://shop.dtm.at is an Austrian online retailer that still has some European HD DVDs available. If you see any you like, you should order them now and not wait for prices to drop. Note that due to the rapidly falling dollar that the prices are about 1.5 times in dollars what you see quoted in Euros. The site has an English language flag at the top right if you can't read enough German to navigate. They have some HD DVDs that were never released in that format in the USA. If you order from them, they will most likely only respond in German, so be sure to use Babelfish (http://babelfish.altavista.com/tr) to translate it. It takes about 10 days or so, give or take, to get stuff from them after they ship it.
