Are they watching or what? As soon as I make my last post something told me to check one more time. It’s not the HD bonanza I was hoping for but we do get a few new SD titles. As Good As It Gets, Americas Sweethearts, Dogtown and Z-Boys, Beverly Hills Cop II, Con Air and The Professional. And we get a sneek peek at the $.99 movie of the week, Soul Plane. Here’s to hoping the HD content is yet to come.

I’m calling it. I know there’s a few more hours left on the west coast, but it’s close enough for me. This has got to be the first time in this websites existence that not one new or upgraded title was added in a day. As a matter of fact two titles were removed, Aliens of the Deep and Talk to Me. I would like to say that I have a good feeling about new movie Tuesday tomorrow, but Apple is beginning to make me a skeptic.

It’s not exactly Peter Jackson’s vision, but Jessica Lang’s version will have to do. King Kong (1976) makes it’s debut as an HD title and brings SD titles Fatal Attraction, Pet Sematary, Vanilla Sky, The Game Plan and Star Trek’s First Contact and Generations.

Well, let’s see if these new additions don’t go disappearing anytime soon. In HD titles we get Witness, Searching for Bobby Fischer, Falling in Love, Naked Gun 2 1/2, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, and the original The Italian Job (1969).
In SD titles we have Boomerang, Chinatown, First Monday in October, Ghost, Mission: Impossible, Little Women, Plaza Suite, Posse, Save the Last Dance, Soapdish and The Score.
I have to say that pretty much all of these titles showed up when Apple did their mistake Big Dump last week. Maybe their mistake was a preview of things to come. We can only hope.

Update – Our second Apple TV victim of the day comes from site visitor Bryan. It appears Apple has axed the HD movie Lust Caution. Thanks to all the ATV Junkies with all the tips. You keep the list updated when we can’t.
This must be a new record for Apple. Premiering a new movie and removing it within only days. First pointed out to us by reader pipkato, American Gangster is no more, at least for now. Apple has a knack for bringing movies back at a later date.

Apple Movie Junkie, formerly Apple TV Junkie, is the official blog of Cinemira. We provide a helpful service for users of the iTunes Movie Store and the Apple TV. AMJ was born out of a surprising shortcoming on the Apple TV after noticing that there was no easy way to find a list of all new HD & SD rental titles released on a daily basis. AMJ fills that niche with a daily list of new movies.
