If you guys could have seen the future, back in january 2007, calling this thread "Paramount taking Toshiba's bribe will help 2007" would have been more realistic in terms of helping hd-dvd"

So my advice for 2008 is try to bribe more major studios instead of promising 100 titles LOL

From now on this is my only response to you until you start posting like an adult who wants a actual debate instead of BS.

I suggest everyone else just respond that way until he grows up and debates the formats.

Don't you realize that studios are not impressed with the BOGOs? You think WB will decide to stay neutral or go BD exclusive because Nielsons ratios were artificially inflated by them? I'll bet you don't buy any catalog movies unless they're on sale, don't you? No wonder Paramount went exclusive. It's hard to make money on Blu-ray when they're selling at half price.

Bought a couple of Paramount Blu's, last week, for $19.99 each. Why pay the full price, when you can get a deal for two? I use B&M stores, Amazon.com, WarnerHV, Walmart, wherever I can get the best deal. Only a fool pays more than they have to. I plan on getting Omega Man, Superbad, The Day After Tomorrow and few other catalogue movies during Bourne week, just to squelch the last hope of the HD DUD supporters. Who knows, I might just pick up a few more Paramount Blu's, just to rub salt into the wounds of the DUD'ers. I'll let the Harry Potter warriors do their thing and let them fight it out over supremacy of Warner.

Sony will be a division of Toshiba in 14.5 months. What?... It could happen.

Indeed matey, indeed, that is why these BOGOFs could actually do Blu-ray more harm than good.

LOL @ this thread. Another lie that made me buy an HD DVD player.

MikeRox · 12-03-2007, 11:50 AM

Indeed, there is quite a few titles on the list, notably American Pie, Scarface and Lockstock that I would LOVE to have on HD DVD that they havn't delivered in 2007.

They didn't do too bad really though and have imo been pretty much the best HD studio (and the sole reason for HD DVD keeping pace against 5 Blu-ray studios). Credit where credit is due, they've certainly delivered far better than some other studios.
