Default New Goofy short "How To Hook Up Your Home Theatre" mentions Blu-ray!

Sorry if this has been mentionned before.
We had a familly outting today, and the consensus finally fell on National Treasure (not my first choice, mind you, but it was .. ok. Definitely -very- far from anything factual, but ok).

I had the pleasure to see a new Goofy short animation before the film, in the classic line of the "How to". This one was about Goofy getting everything you need for a brand spanking new HD Home theater system.

What marked me, beside the animation being quite funny, is that Disney totally showed their comitment with a very small but telling line in the vocie over.
Instead of merely listing "A HD player" among the items bought, it specifically said "A Blu Ray Player".
To be honest, I was trying to listen closely but the list was going fast, and I do not think a "HD DVD player" was mentionned, but this might call for another person to confirm

There you have it for the sceptics. Disney is so committed to the format they'll even put it -inside- their animation for X' sake.

Yeah, after Blu-ray I think he said something else-ray but HD-DVD was not mentioned. I smiled when I heard it.

National Treasure 2 was fun.

They said Blu-ray and Green-ray. No mention of DUD. Amazing since we all know Disney is about to go neutral.

I love the National Treasure movies.. I am hoping page 47 of the president's book of secrets is movie number 3.

Can't wait for the BD's.

Since it is Disney, you won't hear mention of an HD DVD player.

My entire family enjoyed National Treasure BOS! I noticed the mention of the Blu-Ray player too.

And whattayahmean "far from factual"?

The lake "behind" Mount Rushmore is 8 miles away. I guess I doubt a traffic camera would provide the resolution needed to see anything important through the windshield of a moving car. Um... Everything else was totally believable!
