Well, since it is obvious you are trying to indict PS3 owners as the ONLY type that buy those silly "comic book movies" - sure. Whatever you say BobY.

Just for you, we will say that only PS3 users buy those dumb "comic book" movies. And only SA users buy "real" films like Godfather, Patton, Bonnie and Clyde, etc.? Happy? Now we can isolate real film lovers from stupid PS3 owning teenagers, right? I mean, is that your overall gist?

Is that good enough? We can draw a clear delineation between pubescent PS3 owners and their love for those shameful "comic book" movies and video game system, and the more mature, TRUE film aficianados that ONLY use SA's and only view films that have "meaning", or are from the AFI top 100, etc. Sound pleasing?

I mean, that is your undertone, right?

That the PS3 is directed to a younger demographic and hence contribute ~100% tothe success of those flthy "comic book" movies, whereas SA's users are in a higher "class" and have more refined taste in film?

Just know that HD DVD, which had the MINORITY (~33%)of it's players stem from a video game system had two "stupid" movies as the top seller - Transformers and 300. I guess those 66% of standalone users on HD DVD didn't contribute in making a movie based on a toy the #1 movie on the format. Only those pimple faced teenagers with their silly xbox's propelled Transformers to #1, while the more refined SA users resisted that silly title. Right? Give me a break.

But please, continue to indict PS3 users as being some great barrier as to why YOU don't have the titles YOU want on bluray, since the studios are pandering to that disgusting greasy PS3 crowd. Hell, I bet the IQ of SA users is even higher than that of PS3s users. They probably make more money, only drink fine wine, and smoke the finest of cigars. Shall we set up a heirachy of HD player owners? Where SA users reign supreme and lowly PS3 users are the serfs?

Your argument is stale - as Bravestime and others had cited - the shift is occurring. So enjoy your anti-Sony/PS3 soapbox while it lasts, because when it vanishes and SA'a are the majority - you are going to have one less thing to talk about. Though I am certian some issue will still keep you here - as "uninterested" as you may be in the format.
