The Incredibles Blu-ray confirmed for Spring 2011 [UPDATE]

A promotional booklet found inside the Toy Story 3 Blu-ray (in stores Nov. 2) confirms that The Incredibles will be arriving on Blu-ray Disc (BD) next spring, in a BD+DVD+digital copy combo pack.

User Sithlord75 of the Blu-ray.com forums already received a copy of the 'TS3' Blu-ray (I'm still waiting for mine) and photographed the promotional materials, including the advert for The Incredibles BD (cropped at right).

The member reports that, "There's a trailer for it on the disc too and it looks superb." Duh! The Incredibles is a perfect fit for Blu-ray.

Less superb is the fact that no mention is made of Finding Nemo coming to the high-def format anytime soon.

----------
Update: Watch the trailer below; it's really fun. Sounds like they got Brad Bird to come back and record Edna's voice over.

A bit surprising that only a 5.1 surround sound mix is mentioned. After such a long wait for this title, I was expecting something more advanced like 7.1.

I love Blu-ray.com, even if I don't own a Blu-ray player myself. I just like reading their (content and presentation) reviews of films I've seen, and viewing 720p screenshots from the films.

Finally, yes! I can't wait. I wish it would come out sooner, but at long last now we know when. :D Yay!

Wow the Incredibles BEFORE Finding Nemo? That's.... outstanding!


This probably means Disney/Pixar has more time to recreate Finding Nemo in high definition while we enjoy the awesomeness of The Incredibles.
Here's hoping they'll use a 7.1 sound mix for those who have such a set up!

oh edit, damn looks like they're resorting to 5.1.

7.1 Finding Nemo please?!
