Well, I have to say I am fucking SHOCKED. Friday the 13th on blu, that's pretty freakin' sweet, although I prefer Part 2 to the original. You never know, maybe they'll be releasing the rest of the movies in the series down the line (like they did for the original DVD releases, 2 a year).

Yeah that's the way I'm feeling. However, I'm keeping my expectations high for this, as Paramount's standard def release of part 1 looks fantastic. And I've yet to be disappointed by the image quality of a Paramount blu-ray.

The specs on the other DVDs don't sound too great IMO. Looks like I'll just be picking up the Anchor Bay documentary (His name was Jason) and skipping these. But it's good to see Paramount going HD with F13, even if it's just the first one.

This is awesome news. Hopefully the sequels will follow and they'll get the same treatment. After all, this remake is borrowing from the sequels more than anything.

Well, neither. Only part 1 is getting a blu-ray release for now. All three films are definitely still coming out in standard def, and in "deluxe" editions. Not sure if they're gonna be in boxset form, though.
