There were a large number of titles added for pre-order today covering a variety of franchises.

From Lionsgate the Rambo franchise sees the latest edition Rambo released, as well as the second and third installments. Rambo is listed on Amazon for 30% off at $27.95, and features a digital copy which contains a standard-definition iTunes Digital Copy of the movie, enabling viewers to watch it on portable devices. It also features a Bonus View picture-in-picture video commentary with Stallone. Rambo - First Blood Part II and Rambo III have the very nice price of $13.95. There is also the Rambo 1-3 Boxset of the first three movies for $34.95. All are scheduled for release May 27th, 2008.

Also made available today is the Dirty Harry Boxset from Warner. The Dirty Harry (Ultimate Collector’s Edition) is listed for $90.95 at Amazon and features Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool, along with a bonus disc with the documentary: “Clint Eastwood: Out of the Shadows”. The box also features a 40-page hardcover book, a wallet with metal badge and removable laminated I.D. card, five 5”x 7” Reproduction Lobby Poster Cards plus an exclusive UCE card, Scorpio Portrait of a Killer Poster-Sized (19” x 27”) map of San Francisco detailing Harry’s hunt for the killer and Never-Before-Seen Production Correspondence. This is a ‘must have’ item for me!

Warner has a couple more items in the ‘direct to hi-def’ category. The animated release Batman - Gotham Knight is set for release July 8, 2008, and is available for pre-order for $23.95. Also the feature film Otis, which premiered at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, will hit Blu-ray June 10th, 2008 - apparently skipping a theatrical release. This title is available at the typical catalogue price level of $19.95.
