It's Jan 14th... and in the past two months the BD world has been a roller-coaster of excitement. Everything from the consistent BOGOs through the holiday, solid releases of quality movie titles, and who can forget the announcement of the new year: Warner goes blu exclusive and takes New Line with them. So where does that leave us now?
Well my friends, with all the greatness that has become a solid campaign for blu, and a format war seemingly scripted from Hollywood's best I must admit I'm feeling a massive let-down. It appears we will be waiting for a while on the next big thing. I can honestly say I'm not looking forward to any of the upcoming movie releases (for a month or so), and with HD DVD not throwing in the towl, the sceptacism raised in the forum has left me more irritated than anything. Sure it's fun to guess when Universal/Paramount will jump ship and HD DVD will concede, but until happens I really have lost my desire to discuss it.
Is this the calm before the storm? I certainly hope so because with all the excitement of the past few months, my expectations of movie releases alone have been raised substantially. Don't make me an addicted and take away the drug because the withdrawal is becoming unbearable...
