Welcome to HDR

Warner Home Video is running a new buy 5, get 1 free Blu-ray Disc promotion that runs through April 6, 2010. While that's great, the real news is buried in the terms and conditions.

Thumbing through all the legalize reveals a massive list of Blu-ray Disc titles eligible for the promotion. Because the promotion runs a full year from now, many of the titles are not out yet, much less announced.

For example, a packaging insert confirmed Warner was working on The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring on Blu-ray Disc. This new list confirms we're getting the entire trilogy.

Other new titles aren't even out theatrically yet like Hangover, Terminator Salvation, Observe and Report and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Here's the full list of what's in store.

He's Just Not That Into You

All of the titles I've placed an asterisk by are either unannounced or we had seen no sign of them prior. Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz have not been announced but are already available for pre-order at Amazon.com. Inkheart has already appeared on rumor lists as well.

Announcements for all these releases will be forthcoming throughout the rest of this year. Hopefully this is just a sampling of what we can expect from Warner and New Line on Blu-ray Disc in 2009 and early 2010.
