Specifically, their animated movies as big-guns--
Unlike the promo, however, "Sleeping Beauty" will NOT be on the list
(they just wanted to show characters saying "Blue!"), but rather:
A) their Pixar movies,
B) anything that was already hi-def detailed for IMAX (Beauty/Beast,
Lion King), and
C) anything that was already remastered for 2-disk AFTER they started on
their Blu-Ray kick (which means Little Mermaid and Jungle Book, but not
Bambi or Snow White)

Again, like Beta rather than DiVX:
Not a declaration of defeat and signed truce, just a shadow-election in
smoke-filled backrooms, to bring the ceasefire.

....Aww, don't say that, man, that's depressing. :(
(But then, as long as Warner's got Casablanca, Robin Hood and Excalibur
going to Blu next year--and Blu will finally have some real movies on
their catalog instead of Sony action-losers and Tomb Raider
sequels--guess I can live with it)
