Spielberg Feeling Blu Too
Posted August 21, 2007 by Josh
 A noticeable stipulation in the Paramount deal yesterday was that films directed by Steven Spielberg would not be HD DVD exclusive, and could be distributed on either or both formats. At the time, it was not apparent if this meant the famous director was a fan of Blu-ray, but clarification received by High Def Digest suggests that the only Spielberg film coming out in high definition will be the recently announced 'Encounters of the Third Kind' and only on Blu-ray.
The drama started earlier this year when the HD DVD promo group listed a few high profile Spielberg titles as "coming soon" to the format. Shortly there after, the group was forced to issue a public apology to Mr. Spielberg, and retracted the titles from the release schedule. Apparently, he was contacted before the decision was made to release his movies in high definition.
Over the last few months, things have been heating up at the Spielberg camp. News from inside sources indicated that Spielberg was unhappy with Paramount for taking credit on Dreamworks films and for their firing of longtime friend Tom Cruise. There was some discussion that Spielberg would leave Paramount, taking his property with him.
Then, two Spielberg properties were announced for high definition release: 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' via Sony and 'Poltergeist' via Warner. CE3K was completely approved by Spielberg and includes a brand new introduction by the director. 'Poltergeist' was canceled.
After the Paramount announcement, High Def Digest contacted long-time Spielberg spokesman Marvin Levy regarding the announcement. He said the following:
"It was important to Steven that if any of his films were to be released [first] on high-definition, that it would be a classic. Steven is big supporter of Blu-ray, and chose 'Close Encounters' to be the first of his films on either format."
He also confirmed that CE3K was the only Spielberg movie in the high definition pipeline, and the only Spielberg film which would be released in high definition this year. While Spielberg has yet to issue the same war cry as Michael Bay did earlier today, from his choices with regards to high definition releases clearly show him favoring Blu-ray.
在派拉蒙昨日转向HD-DVD的声明中，有一项引人注目：斯蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格执导的影片不包括于其中。
而High Def Digest如今收到声明称，斯皮尔伯格首部高清格式的影片《第三类接触》（也是今年唯一一部），将会是BD标题独占。
之前就有消息传出，斯皮尔伯格不满派拉蒙利用梦工厂，以及炒掉了他长久以来的伙计Tom Cruise。 甚至有传言称，斯皮尔伯格考虑带着他的作品离开派拉蒙。
接踵而来的，就是斯皮尔伯格宣布其两部影片《第三类接触》和《吵闹鬼Poltergeist》高清版 分别交由SONY和华纳发行。
在昨日派拉蒙声明之后，High Def Digest联线了斯皮尔伯格的发言人Marvin Levy 。他评论如下：
"对于斯蒂芬来说，如果他的任何一部影片要[首先]以高清格式发布的话，必定要是一部经典。 斯蒂芬是蓝光的忠实支持者。他选择了《第三类接触》作为他第一部以高清发布的影片。". |
