Apparently ESPN was not only pleased with the 3: The Dale Earnhardt Story DVD sales, but it reckons that NASCAR fans are ready and willing to pick it up on Blu, too. The sports giant has just revealed that its first Blu-ray title will be the Collector's Edition of the aforementioned title, and it's slated to land on November 11th. There are no definite extras or specifications to speak of, but we'd expect ESPN to bring the heat on its first foray into BD. MSRP for the title is set at $34.95, but as always, you'll be able to find it for much less without too much effort.[Via High-Def Digest]
I'm a huge NASCAR fan, but I doubt I will pick this up on Blu. Of course, I haven't made the jump on getting a Blu-Ray player yet, but I am in the next couple of months. Unless this old title can be found for $19.99 or less, it's not going to be on my buy list.
I obviously missed the first two movies in the series, so why would I pick up this one?
(Kidding)
There is nothing about NASCAR that I like, but this movie was awesome. I don't yet own a Blu-ray player (it may just be a few years since I have other avenues of watching HD movies), but this may very well make it into my collection one day.
LOL, Jellodyne.
Well, I guess this means my local Wal-Mart in hicksville, FL (near Daytona) will actually have to start carrying blu-rays. They always seem to have at least an 8 foot wide, 4 foot tall display dedicated to JUST this title.
