A former co worker and I would get into back and forth ''debates'' about which format was better and which one would prevail. I was for blu ray, he was for hd dvd.
The ONE title that made me buy a hd dvd player for it's exclusive hd dvd release was Transformers. I tried to live with the dvd version upconverted to 1080p...didn't last,lol. Batman Begins, Carlito's Way, Casino, and Troy were other titles I wanted..but it was Transformers that made me go out and buy a hd dvd player ASAP!!
When Paramount switched to blu exclusively..I knew the writing was on the walls. Warner Bros going exclusive with blu...when they were releasing on both formats...just helped solidify blu ray's eventual dominance.
