Comcast announced ten blockbuster movies available this month on-demand, day-and-date with the Blu-ray and DVD releases. Some titles available simultaneously with disc releases include The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3, Brüno, and Angels & Demons , and all available in both standard and high-definition quality.
Partnerships with Warner Bros/New Line, Fox, Universal, Summit, Lionsgate, Sony, Paramount and MGM allow Comcast to offer the movies on the same day DVDs are released. Comcast says its biggest on-demand opening so far was for the movie Twilight, and that 80 percent of their top 10 new releases were available on VOD day-and-date with the DVD.
Other blockbusters movies this month include Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs.
