Full tech specs and supplemental details are not yet available. However, Warner will be debuting the high-def versions only weeks after it unveils new "Deluxe Editions" of both 'Jailhouse Rock' and 'Viva Las Vegas' on standard-def DVD, so expectations are for exciting new extras.

Warner has set a suggested list price for all versions at $28.95 a pop.

We've added new listings for 'Jailhouse Rock' and 'Viva Las Vegas' to our Blu-ray Release Schedule and HD DVD Release Schedule, under September 18. Stay tuned for full specs and box cover art in the days ahead.
