Second set of Galactic Battles DVDs announced for 5/10/11

I find it funny they stopped releasing DVDs for a while, (even Movie 12 for that matter), and now they're starting again. I wonder why they stopped.

They pretty much dropped the ball with Johto DVDs, since they could have used HGSS popularity at the time to boost sales for sets of that particular saga. But I guess Viz feels Johto won't sell, so they didn't bother.

I've surmised there may have been a delay due to a possible lapse in rights to the first and second movies (notice how the second movie appeared and disappeared last year from iTunes). If this is the case, it may have slowed negotiations. Purely a theory, however.
 
I'm assuming that "4 x 3 FULL FRAME" is a typo since all the episodes on these discs were made after the switch to HD.

As for the delay...maybe Viz was trying to make negotiations to release the series on Blu-Ray?

if dragon ballz z kai can make it on blu ray'' Well then anything can happen

but i would love to watch Pokemon on Blu ray'' due to me having a 50 inch plasma tv and a playstation 3 The Picture would look outstanding And that's in My room lol
 
If they also had DVDs where the Japanese music was kept, I'd be all over it.

Another possibility. WB does have a separate Blu-Ray pre-order page, but I'm not sure how closely those two are kept in sync (especially since this news came out on a Friday).

Looks like Amazon has covers:
