I'm sure the movie was shot in HD

Hmm, you just might be right about that. ;)

For me, Jackson's Lord of the Rings movies would be fun to have on Blu-ray, but they're not so wonderful that I'm really looking forward to them. (The books could have been translated to film in far, far better ways.) With all the money they're bound to make, however, I'm sure that they've been planning to release them on Blu-ray for a while now, the question is what timetable they've decided on. For that I have no clue.
