Not time to celebrate yet - Blu-ray Forum

GreenMotion · 01-05-2008, 01:19 AM

Ok guys, I have some bad news.

I just spoke with some buddies of mine - (yes, we're on opposite ends as far as the HD war is concerned, but are still friends) - who told me that despite of what the news wants us to believe; everything is going as planned [by the HD-DVD camp] and they will soon make their move and switch everything around. This is all just a big diversion tactic so that Toshiba can roll out their big guns.

So be warned everyone ... don't celebrate yet.

I'm a half HD DVD supporter and I don't give it a hope in hell at this point.

It's over.

Thats the stupidest crap I ever did read. Even goes beyond the fanboy's usual delusions.

Right, and I am caucasian and 14 years old. Fox is not going HD DVD, neither is Disney(this I know for sure) or Sony. And now Warner is going blu exclusive. This is game over if I ever saw it.

STI Jaguar · 01-05-2008, 01:23 AM

Congratulations guys.

What do you mean by big guns? Does your friend works for Microsoft, Universal, Paramount, or Toshiba? Do they have any proof? We need proof.

Hassoon · 01-05-2008, 01:24 AM

I dunno man...it's my birthday, so I'm celebrating anyway

sleazypig · 01-05-2008, 01:25 AM

I think you do have to wait on Universal and Paramont. They could keep Hd Dvd lingering for a while. But Hd Dvd can't win now. So you can relax the war isn't over but the outcome is no longer in doubt.

Sean4000 · 01-05-2008, 01:26 AM

Let them bring out the big guns and shoot themselves in the face with them.

So WB going blu exclusive was a diversion tactic? That's one helluva diversion tactic....I wonder what else they have up their sleeves.

I guess my post is talking about the desperate denial the HD-DVD guys are in. I almost feel sorry for them

I know we were pretty beaten down after Paramount switched, but I don't think anyone of us was in this much denial.
