    It says the HD DVD set will be a two-disc set. It also says the bonus material will be identical to the DVD version. The implication is that the movie will be on Disc One and the bonus material will be on Disc Two, but it is not stated that way.

    • You're probably right. It would certainly be a major SNAFU to have the actual film split over two discs - Jazz Inmate 17:21:14 09/05/07 (2)

      But I think the fact that a two-disc set required for HD DVD provides the same content as a one disc on Blu-ray makes the point regardless.

        Lots of them out there on DVD (such as the LOTR Extended Edition sets), and I've never heard anyone complain. I think it would be better not to split a film if it's not necessary, but having a film split across two discs doesn't bother me. Once upon a time, all but the shortest films had intermissions.

          Considering they got King Kong on 1 disc, and that's over 3 hrs, this will fit easily.

    I had the exact opposite conversation with a Blu-ray basher concerning POTC on another forum.

    It'll fit on one discs-put the extras on the second. Its not a big deal, usually bing called the Special edition. :-)
    The IFA reports came out last week, hence my posts on the new BD players.
