Despite Paramount’s official statement that they are sticking with the flagging HD DVD format as their next-gen disc of choice, rumours still abound online that the company will go Blu-ray in the not-too-distant future.
Adding fuel to those particular flames of rumour is the recent discovery of some “coming soon” Blu-ray-flavoured Paramount discs on Amazon.co.uk.
The three releases, due on 10th March 2008, according to info on the e-tailer’s site, are “Trading Places”, “Coming To America” and “Anchorman”.
Although the two Eddie Murphy vehicles did get a US Blu-ray release before Paramount’s switch to HD DVD last summer, it seems Anchorman did not, leading to speculation that this is a slip from Amazon, rather than an admin error.
