Just a quick update of the site release lists, the most important news being that Thor: Ragnarok now has a release date of March 6 and Coco will be available on February 27, both on Blu-ray and Ultra HD Blu-ray, the later with Dolby Atmos.
On a bit of side news, I’ve been experimenting in the last weeks with the new KEF Q Series 2017 and with the Buttkicker Mini LFE, so I may post a couple of impressions post in the near future on those !
Treat this still as a rumour, but at the same time it’s not really surprising. Initial informations to retailers seem to confirm that The Last Jedi will be released this Spring on Ultra HD Blu-ray with a Dolby Atmos soundtrack.
No word yet on an official date or if there’s any change on also getting The Force Awakens and Rogue One on the format, but it’s a huge news for the industry.
Please note I also updated the lists with some Atmos and Dolby Vision information including:
A quick update to wish you the best for the on going Holidays and to let you know that I updated the lists on the site with the couple of releases announced recently, even if it’s been a pretty slow news period.
