HD DVD's good news thread for 2007 - Blu-ray Forum

POOPonYOU · 08-03-2007, 09:38 AM

Oh yeah, Sony is paying a lot of money for endcap space at Target!

I made the same post on the AVS Forum just for fun but it probably already got deleted. Sorry but after reading all that BS from the fanboys I just couldn't resist.

um.... um....

Boy... that's a tough one.

The good news for the format would be if they dragged it behind the barn and shot it and put it out of it's misery.

"A better film library than blu-ray" in that one posters opinion?

Wow. Oooookkkkay.

The "Keep Dreaming" reply is my alter ego on AVS

i actually started laughing when i saw that

Damn, they already deleted my thread. Funny thing is a Mod told me that they don't allow things like that. I think that AVS Forum has a lot to lose if this format war is no more. Everyone would flood Blu-Ray.com and they would lose so many visitors.

I tend to agree.

While I exclusively own blu-ray and have no intention of purchasing HDDVD (unless they pull off an upset), there are many titles from universal I'd love to have in my collection.

i've decided however that bd is ultimately the better format, that the PS3 is one hell of a bang for the buck (even at $600 it's a steal in my opinion), and that ultimately bd will win and universal (and fox) will come around.

when I saw this thread title my first thought was ''a quick and painless death''. ok maybe just a quick death. that would be good news for everyone.

or maybe ''u.n. peacekeepers deployed to avs to maintain the civility in this format war, and police the hd terrorist controlled territory''. that would just be good news to help them stop looking soooooo ignorant.

The guys on the HDDVD forums there are delusional. I was reading the 300 issues thread and one of the guys was like no biggie, I just turned it over to the dvd side and watched it. I was like WTF?

Well... there probably isn't much of a difference between HD DuD and standard DVD anyways, no biggie!

Good news for HD DVD: Just this week, I tracked down a copy of Children of Men that would actually load and play all the way through.

Bad news for HD DVD: It was my sixth try since late March.

What'sHD · 08-06-2007, 10:44 AM

Good news?!

Technically, this should be one of the shortest threads in history...

elwaylite · 08-06-2007, 02:07 PM

Depends on what site.

I like this site because Im a BD owner and its BD forum.

At AVS you get more HDDVD people in the BD forums than BD owners. I was dealing with posts this morning like "Id trade all my BD's for the Bourne Trilogy". One guy said hed rather have Knocked Up on HDDVD than the Spiderman movies.
