Jack Ryan to finally go Blu in July

Jack Ryan fans have been teased by Paramount for almost a year now -- first The Jack Ryan Collection was announced for both formats, then only for HD DVD. When it was finally released it was a disaster and was recalled. Now here we are almost a year later and according to DVD Town, only two of the four movies will be available on Blu-ray on July 29th. To make things worse, the best movie in the series, The Hunt for Red October is MIA and there's no mention of when we may see it. Don't get us wrong, we like all four movies, and we're glad we'll get to see Patriot Games and Sum of all Fears in HD, but exactly how long does it take to remaster four movies in HD and press a few Blu-ray Discs?Paramount delays, recalls Jack Ryan HD DVD set

Paramount has reacted quickly, delaying and recalling its not-so-special Jack Ryan Special Collectors Edition HD DVD boxed set that shipped without any of the special features listed on the box. While some may appreciate a minimalist style, presenting only the movies without the interruption of minor elements like, a menu, this was taking it a bit far. No word yet if the discs will be reissued with the missing features, or if those boxes will be returning with certain lines conveniently blanked out.The-not-so-special Jack Ryan Special Edition box set

Feel free to correct us if we're wrong, but special edition DVD/HD DVDs should have extra content and therefore worthy of the moniker, right? Well, apparently someone at Paramount didn't agree, as the new Jack Ryan collector set doesn't include any of the bonus features listed on the box. No audio commentary, no featurettes, nothing extra at all is included in the set besides the movies. In fact, viewers are reporting that when the discs are popped in, they just start playing without displaying a menu at all. No word from Paramount just yet, but apparently, when you buy this box set, the only thing owners are going to enjoy is the movies themselves.The Jack Ryan collection comes to HD DVD and Blu-ray this September
