Now maybe some of ya'll can go to bed knowing that everything is alright with your decision to buy Blu-ray. Now I direct everyones attention to the aforementioned "Name that Blu-ray Movie" thread for continued fun.

Blu-dock Saint · 09-11-2007, 03:16 AM

What'd I tell you all, its all good.

Spankey · 09-11-2007, 03:17 AM

It was also during the time immediately after the Para***** deal, that drunken Tivo dealer was saying that a big studio would be going HD-DVD. He knew of the overture to Warner.

I had a feeling the news was old. We are way ahead of the curve on stories that don't come to pass.

Now someone get Penton to put a band-aid on it and get back here.

BStecke · 09-11-2007, 03:17 AM

Good news. Not quite as good as them going Blu-ray exclusive, but it'll do

Hopefully there's some truth to the rumors that Warner will start favoring Blu-ray with their releases.

eRICH · 09-11-2007, 03:17 AM

Thanks for the update Dotpattern. I thought this seemed a little odd, I mean if Toshiba went after Paramount why wouldn't they go after WB the same week. Its not like companies like to spend a couple hundred million every other week right?

Bombthroat · 09-11-2007, 03:20 AM

It's nice to have affirmation.

Now where's Weinstein with the Grindhouse release I keep hearing about?

Zaphod · 09-11-2007, 03:20 AM

Damn! I wanted the other thread to go on forever!

Deci or Alive

Watch out, here I come

You spin me right round, baby
Right round like a record, baby
Right round, round, round
You spin me right round, baby
Right round like a record, baby
Right round, round, round

If I, I get to know your name
Well if I, could trace your private number, baby

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun

You spin me right round, baby
Right round like a record, baby
Right round, round, round
You spin me right round, baby
Right round like a record, baby
Right round, round, round

WB is not going hddvd exclusive. If any move is made it would be BD exclusive.

I just posted this news over at AVS and as expected the HD-DVD supporters are in complete denial. It is quite funny

It seems the tables have turned once again, and they dont like it.

Their replies gave me a damn good laugh, damn good.

If I wasnt currently suspended from Hidef I would post it over there as well, cmon someone on here must have an account over there to post it up.

Blu-dock Saint · 09-11-2007, 03:47 AM

Surprising, not many people have viewed this thread yet, but the other imediate doom thread was visited a million times.

Jamh · 09-11-2007, 03:50 AM

LOL, I think rdjam is f'in blind. "This story has nothing to do with Warner rejecting any offer." Woooooow.

beatboy77 · 09-11-2007, 03:51 AM

What a hoot the AVS thread has become. The HD-DVD supporters are in COMPLETE Panic Mode right now. Hilarious!

~Josh

beatboy77 · 09-11-2007, 03:54 AM

Well isn't that something. That thread just got erased from AVS. Very Curious

Jamh · 09-11-2007, 03:55 AM

ROFL, I can't access the AVS thread through the link anymore. I guess AVM$ doesn't want the FUD to end yet.
