Universal Studios Announce New HD DVDs for September

[20 June 2006] Original post.
[23 June 2006] Updated with amendement to the release dates.

Universal Studios Home Entertainment seems to be pulling no stops with respect to its support for HD DVD format, with new titles added to the September HD DVD release slate. USHE is finally including Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio tracks for some of its Sept HD DVD releases, namely End of Days & Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, which will be released on Sept 26. On that same day, USHE will unveil the next wave of titles on HD DVD/DVD Combo format discs, namely Dazed & Confused and George A. Romero’s Land of the Dead (Unrated Director's Cut).

Blogger's Update: If you've noticed,the Sept 19 release date has been amended to Sept 26, which is now the official new date. This amendment actually makes sense because if you look at Universal Studios' August HD DVD line-up, they are released either on August 8 or August 22, which is simply two weeks apart. Similarly, following that release pattern, it does make sense for this small amendment.

September 12:
>> Backdraft (Anniversary Edition)
>> Traffic
>> Seabiscuit
>> Red Dragon

September 26 (New date, originally Sept 19):
>> Dazed & Confused
>> End of Days
>> Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
>> George A. Romero’s Land of the Dead (Unrated Director's Cut)

More details in the post below.
