More clarification from Maxpower at BR.com:
I should have clarified. NL will make their own announcement when they see fit, they are still a fully autonomous studio, but the BDA have made a deal with Time Warner and you can rest assured that it includes all studios operating under TW.
Woot. Just imagine how beautiful Rivendell, Minas Tirith, and the Grey Havens will look on Blu-Ray. :D |
They have to annouce the MOVIE RELEASES. This has NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT. What the hell makes you think being format neutral would affect the relase of Lord of the Rings in blu-ray? And don't bring up the Matrix, as this article states NL is autonomous. So why the hell are you associating NL going blu-ray exclusive with LotR being released on blu-ray? If it's available internationally, BEFORE NL has annouced any decision, there is CLEARLY NO CONNECTION. Now I'm typing in allcaps because you have been stupidly connecting the two, with NOTHING TO CONNECT THEM. |
I'm talking about a Blu-Ray specific encode* vs a format neutral one. :P |
First of all, you didn't mention the higher bitrate at first. The way you are posting makes it look as though you are discussing a release at all.
Second, that still isn't a connection. Assuming that NL uses the same release specs as Warners, where is the proof they would drop the one disc thing? You yourself wrote they do that. And did you see my correction that using that one disc is the reason there isn't enough space for the higher bitrate.
*A higher bitrate is not the same as a blu-ray encoding. Both formats use the same encodings.
