I see that there is a "free HBO/Starz" movie weekend. At least, I think it is free because they are all white on my guide and I didn't upgrade. But why is the HD movies on the same packages not being allowed to be viewed.

I have the 811 receiver and might consider a movie package, if I saw some movies in HD. I am amazed that the movie moguls didn't allow that...
 
It's actually HBO/Showtime. They NEVER open up the HD channels, period. If you like what you see SD wise, order up the package and you'll get HD.
