Warner Going Blu-ray Exclusive (Rumor)

[phloyd]

I am guessing he wants to enjoy the glory of being the first to announce it...?

Personally I will wait until 10:01am tomorrow before passing judgment.

Even if it's true ... HD DUD will spin it as good for HD DUD and they still won't give up hope in their defeated format.

If this IS true, then I think he would have good reasoning not go give out a source. Course...that doesn't really lend anything to what he's saying.

If I had inside info on this happening, I wouldn't wait to post it.

I really don't think they'd announce going Blu-exclu until after Christmas though, like at CES 2008.

Maybe the P/DW announcement changed all that?

I wouldn't get my hopes up, that way you won't be let down.

I definitely wouldn't take the rumor to other sites. It may just be a joke started so that when it doesn't happen we feel like we missed out on something.

I can't release any info about my sources because doing so will cost them their job. Remember guys, If I were to lie, I wouldn't choose tomorrow as the date for announcement. As for you waiting to see what is going to happen, the waiting wont be long.

Good advice about not getting hopes up but,.. how can someone not get thier hopes up about this? After all, I do want Batman Begins on Blu Ray at some point (even though it's not my favorite Batman film by far.)

Even if he has inside info and it's true he stands to gain nothing from breaking the news a day in advance.

Inference to the best explanation would suggest this is hoaxing of a very petty sort.

That I can't answer. But with Warner going exclusive (HD DVD's big studio supporter other than Universal) Do you see anything positive for HD DVD here?

And as I stated previously, you can come back tomorrow and tell everyone "I told you so..." But still not getting hopes up.

Hmmm, tick tock.....

I'd pay real money to see this posted on AVpM$.

[buckshot]

hmmm. its believeable, but they did say they'd be watching xmas very closely. so I also don't believe it. any hints as to your alter ego? plus don't you get banned for multiple accounts anyway? i'm so jaded and skeptical these days I won't believe it until I see it on here, print it out, hold the printed copy and eat it. then i'll believe it.

[Wondermaker]

Interesting rumor. It would be stellar if true, but I'm not holding my breath.

[David Forbes]

My BS meter is pegged on this one.

LOL...I guess we'd find out if it was true or not...if it is still posted tomorrow morning, we'd know it was a hoax.
