When Paramount?? When?? - Blu-ray Forum

crazybat_07 · 04-28-2008, 05:01 AM

When will Paramount start cranking out its movies???? IMO, they dropped the ball in not bringing out Cloverfield on Blu-ray this past week. The 1st thing they should do to make amends with all the consumers they pissed off is start getting out all the movies they had originally planned, but were all cancelled. I'll be very angry if they don't get The Spiderwick Chronicles on Blu-ray on time. I for 1 don't exactly like to double dip..............unless its a must have movie.

The insiders keep telling us to be patient, and Max recently told us that he expects to hear from Paramount any day now.

I do agree that it IS starting to get annoying, but Ive got GTAIV to occupy my time for the next little while.

i believe all of us share your pain and would also like Paramount/Dreamworks to start releasing new movies on Blu-Ray but even if they are not making hd-dvds anymore they are still in contract with Toshiba because of that stupid $150 million they took from Toshiba

I was watching the Italian Job and thinking about Paramount my self.

Ok. When does the contract expire????

I think it had to be legally terminated which with lawyers could have taken weeks

I just hope that it's sooner rather than later. I know that there's certain legalities to adhere to, but one would hope that they get past these hurdles very soon.

HD DVD is done, I would think any contract with Tosh or the HD DVD promotion group is nullified. So, hopefully Paramount will get to cranking out some movies soon. I would hope they would start with The Spiderwick Chronicles, as I really want that on Blu.

well this summer there will be no more hd-dvds so i expect this summer
