Cute, but they don't deserve their complete name to be used there.

Sony wants to win, they want to win at all and any costs. Too much at stake, so with a sense of desperation anything truly is possible.

I AM SORRY BUT.... usually I don't respond to the above comments-but give me a break. HD reigning over the holidays-if you are at a 30 to 70 loss during the off season how much is blu-ray going to crush over the holiday season--that is one of the funniest comments i have seen in a long time. HD is the last one that should be talking about Payouts - at least Blu-Ray can retain STudio Support based on their quality and doesn't have to fork out hundreds of millions everytime they are dying and need a studio - you have Universal and Paramount both of which were paid for.

Well said Morton.

I wasn't counting on it; All I know is that I won't buy it if it's not on Blu.

Madd_Dawg · 09-27-2007, 04:18 AM

Well, there is always hope....

The mods know about this one...they are letting it happen, because I'm not sure if they know what to think on it.

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this thread has been looked at 26,677 times--that's what's even scarier.

Every industry inside source I and my sources have talked to have said "what? No, don't know anything about that", and these are people who would be informed if they were even close.

THAT BEING SAID, the Paramount deal was hidden as well.

But given the denials from very well placed people, DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP. If it really was tomorrow morning night one of them would have spilled. So either this is top secret to a very select audience of board members, or it's bull. 80/20 the latter.

And Warner is definately NOT going HD DVD exclusive. That I know for certain.

Translation:

Siskel and Roeper were contacted. They knew nothing.
Call in sick...skip work...ditch school...do whatever it takes.
THE BIG MOMENT IS UPON US!

pro-bassoonist · 09-27-2007, 04:31 AM

I am very skeptical given how badly Paramount hurt the Blu-team, I always expect the worst, and this just isn't that...worst.

I will publicly apologize if this turns out to be true. Until then I do not believe it!

Ciao,
Pro-B

Good attempt at reverse psychology.

xman · 09-27-2007, 04:33 AM

This would be cool. Can't wait until tomorrow to see if it's true.

It looks like everyone is biting...
Enough is too much!
Close that frigging thread.
Let the World feel the Blu!

kaliraver · 09-27-2007, 04:34 AM

If its not tomorrow I won't sweat it. I know the day is only getting nearer to when Warner is going to be Blu-Ray exclusive since some insiders are hinting that this is inevitable. Heres hoping that is sooner rather than later.

CptGreedle · 09-27-2007, 04:34 AM

OMG... I go to watch a Blu-ray and I come back.. and behold.. it has DOUBLED in size!
This forum is going to escape us, soon it will reach terminal velocity and shoot out of our atmosphere!

"For here am I sitting in a tin can, far above the world.. Planet Earth is Blu and there's nothing I can do!"

LOL...but you keep coming back to check, so your curiousity must be getting the best of you as well.
