And we got additional info just 2 days ago in the form of how well Planet Earth on HD DVD sold. You think that WB is not going to look at that? An almost $100 title is #2 for the week against a #1 title at $40? WB wants profits. So which title made more money for it's studio? They literally sold the same.

The best thing for you to do is simply lurk the thread. Or get involved. But to tell us to stop . . ? Does that make sense? Why? If we are having fun - which we are - aren't we entitled to have fun?

Whatever. And I'm sure Planet Earth retails for close to $100, but in truth, what does it sell for at various places? Not $100 unless you are an idiot who doesn't know about the internet. Anyway, continue your convesation. I'm going to go watch Bourne and Cast Away. Cya.

Best thing to do is ignore the taunts. We are enjoying ourselves - no reason not to continue.

We have to learn that when someone waves a red cape - not to charge.

Back to the discussion!

I'll take bets that this thread will reach 50 pages by Monday.

And throw a ban or ignore in there too.

Hehehe

AVS has the rolled back the Insider thread back to my post linking the two interviews with the top WB exec's.

So my last two posts with David are gone.

as long as they are that trigger happy with the delete button, it´s a good idea to document/archive the important posts here.

He doesn't want to discuss it - I am assured of that. If you look at his posts on this thread - he went from "they will announce it at CES" to "I have no idea" so that should tell you something.

jay4highdef · 12-08-2007, 06:03 PM

You think he might of let the cat out of the bag and then got in over his head being asked too many warner questions?

He never had "the bag" IMO. He was just guessing like the rest of us. Almost a Beatboy type post. A bunch of smoke to cloud up the issue and the first gust of wind . . . all gone.

I am sure that there are many who are saying that since WB has not addressed his statement that it must be true....good luck. They probably are laughing about it because now even Co Chairman of studios are "doing it"

You can play the game of "what if" and eventually hit on the correct answer. But then how long will it take? the old joke about a room full of monkeys - a typewriter - and eventually a work equal to Shakespere.

That's a good question . . . . you tell me:

David Vaughn
DVD Editor
Home Theater Spot
Contributing Writer
Ultimate AV

He reviews movies and writes about them plus he writes blogs and articles.

jay4highdef · 12-08-2007, 06:33 PM

so does he have contacts with studios. I remember when the hoax happened he said his contact at warner said it was false and funny.
