Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) has unveiled the first three titles to come on 50GB dual-layer Blu-ray Discs. Thanks to this extra capacity, the first title, Click, will include all bonus features from the DVD release in high-definition as well as uncompressed PCM audio.
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) today announced the imminent arrival of its first three 50GB dual-layer Blu-ray Discs (BD). The heart-warming comedy Click, starring Golden Globe-Nominee Adam Sandler, Oscar-Winner Christopher Walken and Kate Beckinsale, will be available on store shelves October 10. Black Hawk Down, the Oscar-winning, action-packed drama from director Ridley Scott, starring Josh Hartnett, Ewan McGregor, Tom Sizemore and Eric Bana, features new Blu-Wizard(TM) technology and will be available to film fans on November 14. The hilarious box office hit, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, starring writer and producer Will Ferrell and Oscar-nominee John C. Reilly, hits shelves December 12. All three titles were authored by the Sony Pictures Digital Authoring Center (DAC) and manufactured by Sony DADC.
At this time, SPHE has not announced pricing for these 50GB BD titles. Personally, I would not be surprised if they were a few bucks more than those on single layer discs. If you'd like to read more, SPHE's entire press release can be found here.
