Includes the first double dip!

Warner has given a sneak peek of its upcoming fall line-up of next-gen catalog releases, unveiling plans to bring 'JFK,' 'Casablanca' and a redux of '300' to Blu-ray this year.

It's not the first double dip.  WB also released two versions of Troy and Full Metal Jacket.  And I think other studios have double dipped as well.

In case you haven't noticed at www.digitalbits.com yet, they have released photos of several forthcoming box sets (just follow the link at the end of this post). Quite excellent looking sets!

I will be getting the complete Flintstones set (at least when it's coming to R2) and of course this one as blu-ray...

From an SD perspective, I'm having trouble imagining just how much better Casablanca can look compared to the last 2-disk release.  The paper products look cute an all, but I suspect I'll be saving my money.  Congrats to any Blu folks, but for SD people this announcement is an excercise in repackaging.

Warner really does make excellent Blu Ray's of their older titles. I have the Dirty Harry Box (With harry's wallet).. The picture and sound is excellent.. So I have faith in them to restore any movie into a perfect blu ray. I share your reservations against B/W movies coming to blu though

I am very confident about Casablanca at least, as far B/W movies are concerned. It has been available as HD-DVD for a long time now, and that release got great reviews for the picture quality. It simply can't be any worse when it gets out as blu-ray.
