Sony Movie Channel

That's what I expected Scott, but just wanted to be clear. As you know the TV manufacturers have used the term Full HD to describe their 1080p sets for the past few years. This is not entirely accurate, but has been widely used so I wanted to clear up any confusion. Thanks.

Sales BS.

any ideas as to what package this channel will be in? Platinum only? 200 maybe?

Based on its proposed channel number, Platinum, which has been stated here already.

hope not... free HD for life is not really free .....

Actually it wasn't. It was asked twice, and someone mentioned platinum before it was asked, but that does not mean that it was stated that the channel was set to go into platinum.

With the channel being on 386, the assumption is that the channel will be Platinum considering it's right in the middle of the Platinum channel series....

Looking at their movie lineup with many of the movies displayed from the 70's and the 80's I think its safe to assume that it will not be a premium channel. I would assume that it will be part of the Platinum HD package.

If it is not commercial free like MGM is no longer then I won't be watching. If it is ad free like HDNet Movies then great.

Thanks

Some of the movies shown on their homepage include:

Ghostbusters 2, The Graduate, The City of Lost Children, The Fisher King, If Lucy Fell, Philadelphia, Dick and Das Boot.

How long until the channel is removed due to a carriage dispute / lawsuit with Sony?

So DN is now to carry new channels but then dropping others ?

It´s been a couple of months since I ditched DN.

Man a lot of Trolls out tonight.

Please do not feed the trolls.

Yup reported this back in May. Glad to see its coming true now.

Also look kfor a 3D channel from SONY later this year as well.

A new encrypted channel has appeared on AMC 10 listed as "Sony 3D". I haven't found any Sony HD Movie Channel yet.

IS there any word on the Fearnet channel?

Seen them all. Another movie channel that shows older movies seen on other channels previously.

I took a look at their website, maybe nothing original but it does look better than the Sony TV channel I have watched (carried by Sky)

Cool. I'd take another HD Net Movies, Encore, or Retroplex over another HBO any day of the week.

Good thing you have that option and that I have the option to have both Plat pack and HBO . Hbo is excellent for series tv like True Blood , Entourage, Hung, among others.

I wonder if the Das Boot version they'll show is one of the Bowdlerized versions?
