20th Century Fox Fox Home Entertainment has announced a release date and specs for their upcoming Blu-ray release of 'Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World', as well as 'Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid' and 'Mrs. Doubtfire'. All three titles will be released on May 13th, and come on BD-50s with AVC video and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks.

The Sundance Kid (Redford) is the frontier's fastest gun. His sidekick, Butch Cassidy (Newman), is always dreaming up new ways to get rich fast. If only they could blow open a baggage car without also blowing up the money-filled safe inside... Or remember that Sundance can't swim before they escape a posse by leaping off a cliff into rushing rapids. So Butch and Sundance pack their guns, don new duds, and, with Sundance's girlfriend (Katharine Ross), head down to Bolivia. A winner of four Academy Awards (including best screenplay and best song), here is a thoroughly enjoyable blend of fact and fancy done with true affection for a bygone era and featuring the two flashiest, friendliest funniest outlaws who ever called out "hands up!"

With the perfect wig, a little makeup and a dress for all occasions, he becomes Mrs. Doubtfire, a devoted British nanny who is hired on the spot. Free to be the "woman" he never knew he could be, the disguised Daniel creates a whole new life with his entire family.

Mrs. Doubtfire?! Awesome!
Hopefully the 1080p transfer will be minted from a different print than the one on the
newly-recalled "Behind-The-Seams" edition...
the amount of Edge Enhancement made me feel like I
was watching a laserdisc trasfer from, well, 1992. (Maybe this is why it was recalled?)

Master & Commander...(I'm not holding my breath on the release date this time.)

A few titles I really wish were coming soon from Fox...
Sound of Music, King and I, Passion of the Christ,
(Star Wars...of Course), The Abyss, Cleopatra, and as for MGM....
I'd love Fiddler on the Roof and that once-delayed Princess Bride!!!!

Mrs. Doubtfire

Keep 'em coming Fox, at least these titles look good on the bonus features.

Great Mrs Doubtfire has some of the funniest outtakes I have ever seen, I hope these are all going to be cleaned up, after Edward Scissorhands poor image quality I am very weary of old fox releases

Great news, nice to see Fox dipping into the classic catalog with Butch Cassidy. Also nice to see them staying with DTS MA for their older films too. Now if I could get my hands on The Sound of Music, Hello Dolly and the rest of the Rodgers and Hammerstein collection, life would be even sweeter!

dang they went all out with Master & Commander, I think this may well be the most expansive Blu-ray release

Looks like I'll have to hold onto the DVD of Master & Commander, as Fox has skipped on the meatiest extras once again. Sure, this package sounds exciting in its own right, but I'm really not willing to support yet another obvious double dip.

Butch Cassidy, on the other hand, keeps most of the good extras, and I'll buy it. It'll go nicely with Warner's Bonnie & Clyde.

And, well, no interest in Mrs. Doubtfire here...
