The critically acclaimed films released by Universal Pictures and Focus Features stand on their own and are not dependent on DVD campaigns to fuel nominations and awards.

It's good that we can focus exclusively on DVD this fourth quarter.

Universal looked for the ideal format for the delivery of high-definition content and found VC-1 to offer the quality that we needed for our titles.

This second consecutive DVD Original hit reaffirms the viability of our innovative strategy for bringing exceptional content to the DVD marketplace. The aggressive and unique approach to production, marketing and distribution, combined with the massive appeal of the 'American Pie' franchise, proved an irresistible combination to consumers hungry for a post-holiday treat.

King Kong is one of those rare cinematic achievements that reminds us of the truly magical power of movies. From the first frame, Peter Jackson and his team take us on an unforgettable adventure that not only thrills, but also touches us on a deep, emotional level. We are extremely proud to be able to bring this one-of-a-kind film to home entertainment audiences.

The wherewithal of this company is to make sure that there isn't a person on the planet that doesn't know that Barbie and Polly Pocket are coming to DVD. That hasn't been there before.
