Color me surprised. I doubt we'll see this rolled out to many theaters at first (because they'd have to replace their processors), but at least now there will be actual 7.1 mixes done at the mixing stage instead of the retro-fitted 7.1 mixes we get on Blu-ray.

So for all those times I said that you'd probably never see 7.1 in the theater... I WAS WRONG!

Seen the previews for this one and it looks good. Can't wait for it to come out.

I'm lucky if I see 1.1 in our theaters:)

Heh... I hear ya'! I just think it's good because now Blu-rays will actually have an honest-to-God 7.1 track determined by the original mixer instead of a tacked on 7.1 track made from the 5.1 source.
