Oh those patriotic studios. Just in time for the 4th, Independence Day becomes available as an HD rental. Along with ID we also get Halls of Montezuma and Love and A Bullet as HD rentals.
We thought we would go in a little lighter direction this week with the poll and seeing that most of you are probably movie geeks like us, we thought this would be a great poll to run. If you’ve ever been to Comic-Con you know what a movie geeks dream it is. A few of us ATV Junkies will be there and I personally will be there covering most of it. So we want to know if plan on attending. Let us know and take the poll on the right.
We would also like to thank everyone who participated in last weeks poll. It looks like most of the 260+ people who took the poll rent 1-3 movies a week.
I know this isn’t HD news, but with The Dark Knight right around the corner and Comic-Con coming to town in a few weeks, this gets me pumped. Apple has added a DC Comics animation category to the TV Shows section of the iTunes Store. You’ll find shows from Batman Beyond to the original Max Fleischer Superman cartoons.
Speaking of HD content, when are we going to get HD TV Shows on Apple TV? I would think customers would start to expect this come next year when even broadcast TV turns to an HD Digital standard.
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.
