A Lot of New Titles with Dolby Atmos and some Ultra HD Blu-ray news

4 Comments

It’s been a pretty busy week on the Dolby Atmos front and to some extent also on the Ultra HD Blu-ray side. If there’s anyone still doubting that Dolby is winning the format war on UHD, I think there’s less and less doubts. Amazing how the year of delay that happened with DTS:X changed the landscape completely.

Here are the new titles announced this week.

Passengers

The science-fiction movie has been confirmed by Sony on Ultra HD Blu-ray, no date yet. Because it’s Sony, we can confirm it will have a Dolby Atmos track as all their UHD titles do.

Inferno

The action movie from the Dan Brown book will be released on UHD Blu-ray on January 24 with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack.


Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk

Already confirmed on UHD Blu-ray, the title from Sony now has a release date of February 14 and will feature a Dolby Atmos track.

Hacksaw Ridge

Zoolander 2 On Blu-ray With DTS:X

Leave a comment

Paramount will release Zoolander 2 on Blu-ray on May 24th with a DTS:X track.

Again, this is a remix from home as the movie did not receive an object based mix in theaters. I’m beginning to see a trend with more and more remixes done in DTS:X (except for Sony on UHD) while original Atmos being released that way. Anyway, the more object based tracks the better it is.

As usual, I update the list of DTS:X Blu-rays on the site.
