DAMN! Now I HAVE to buy them before they are gone!
I HATE that stupid deal!

Razzy · 08-22-2007, 02:43 PM

Damn Paramount. I'm really starting to get a hate on for them.

It sucks, but if you want any of these titles I suggest you order them very quickly.

Paramount will rue the day they went up against The Extreme.

Blu Tiger · 08-22-2007, 02:53 PM

That's ok. I'm not giving them anymore of my money.

WriteSimply · 08-22-2007, 03:03 PM

A product recall would be stupid. There was nothing wrong with the discs. Plus, they'd lose that US$50 million if they did. Talk about a non-news story.

Because Bill... IS THE EXTREME!

CptGreedle · 08-22-2007, 04:12 PM

Well I just bought the ones that interested me the most, but there are still some more that I have to wait on (can't afford that many at once) and I am not sure I really want to own that badly.
As long as I get the ones I ordered I will be happy.
But to be honest, I rather have FOX, DISNEY and WARNER release to Blu-ray than Paramount. Not many titles from them I like that much.
I would also love to get Universal since there are a number of good titles there too.
I can't wait for this god forsaken format war to end!

i suggest we vote w/ our wallets and let those remaining copies rot on the shelves.......

cruzzer cruz · 08-22-2007, 04:55 PM

I really wanted The Warriors but they can shove it up their asses.

ikbradley · 08-22-2007, 04:57 PM

I nearly panicked and then I saw what a craptacular list of movies Paramount has released.

What movies will we be missing out on? Real classics (Transformers doesn't count). If Spielberg holds out, there isn't much is there? Lucas has his own rights? Does paramount have rights to the Indiana Jones series?

pscoop · 08-22-2007, 04:58 PM

Talk about completely idiotic. Paramount may as well just start flushing money down the toilet.

CptGreedle · 08-22-2007, 05:04 PM

We shouldn't just leave the Blu-ray discs there. If Paramount sees that the remnants of their Blu-rays stop selling, they won't be tempted to go back.
We have to buy them like normal so that we can show that Blu-ray sales are still strong.

GreenMotion · 08-22-2007, 05:05 PM

Just ordered

- Sahara
- Tomb Raider
- The Manchurian Candidate
- Sky Captain & the World of Tomorrow
- Sleepy Hollow

DrinkMore · 08-22-2007, 05:19 PM

Got damnit! I said I would not support them.

However, this is a catch 22. Do you buy up all the blu's to prove a point? or do you let them sit and rot and not give them any money?

HELP!

GreenMotion · 08-22-2007, 05:23 PM

Hey ... these movies will sell out regardless whether or not you as an individual decide to boycot them. In the end Paramount will still get their money.

So why not buy the movies you really want before they are all gone.

Amazon only has 4 more copies in stock of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

Hey, this will support the blu-ray buy-a-thon as well and bump the nielsen numbers!

DrinkMore · 08-22-2007, 05:36 PM

Well, I was going to order..

Sleepy Hollow
Disturbia
MI: The Set (3)

But you know what, none of them really interest me enough to spend 113 bux on it. Besides, I want Fox's stuff more.
