Default Go BLU or go to hell!

"Go BLU or go to hell"

That's the catch phrase I just came up with ... has it been posted before? Is it just dumb? Will it get me banned?

I thought it was an appropriate slogan as HD DVD is red and is miserable and just a bad place to be these days ... but what do you think?

It's too juvenile. We're at the point in this war where we need to have mercy on our enemy. It's time to take prisoners and show them what's it's like to be on the winning side.

Sounds a bit close minded and arrogant.

I see how you came up with it and its not a bad concept but it sounds a bit threatening and the last thing you want is to have a customer avoiding your product due to fear.

well, I guess hell is associated with the color red.. but it does come off a little judgmental.

This has to be a gentleman's war. Most of our enemies were brain washed and force fed lies by Toshiba and the 800 pound Gorilla. Having mercy shows our strength.

I'm still not sure if this guy is for real with this post. I mean, imagine walking into blockbuster and the big Blu-ray fold-out setup "GO BLU OR GO TO HELL" at least it has comical value (no offense to poster, i love his ambition)

As others said maybe it's just a tad too enthusiastic. It also lacks, dare I say, some of the simplicity and finesse of "It's a Blu World" or "I do Blu" or even "Do the Blu".

Sounds a little harsh and we don't stoop at the levels of hd fanboys. They're reckless and unimportant at best

LOL - I'm not suggesting this actually gets used in stores ... but just as a "guerilla" tactic ... hehe

I dunno ... I just thought it was funny ... and conceptually made sense ...

But yeah ... it's not PC enough for the general public ... though it would get attention now wouldn't it
