A Few Blu-Ray Tidbits by The Hot Blog

The first studio to offer Blu-ray screeners to awards voters? Not Sony, as you migh expect. WB. The only question is whether The Dark Knight will land before the real Blu-ray DVD release. Also, WB broke more ground with the release of the Speed Racer...

The Reader... Coming To Theaters Near You (if you live in NY or LA) On Dec 12 by The Hot Blog

A joint Weinstein/Daldry press release has been issued. As explained before, no surprise. (Even less so after the Project Runway ruling.) I will post the release when I get to a real computer.
