Help please. List or chart of Studio Support

[Phatferd]

I have been searching for an hour trying to find a chart or something showing all the companies that support each format (mainly studios) all on a single chart or picture. I want to show it to a friend who is claiming HD-DVD has more support and better movies. I know I saw one on here before.

Is this good?

I appreciate it, but I'm looking for something that shows both formats compared to each other. Mainly just studio support. I know I saw a chart that had Blu-Ray in one bubble and HD-DVD in another while the neutrals where in the overlapping area.

Also if you're goign to include parent company as well as their subsidiaries (Dreamworks is a subsidiary of Paramount) then you should add Touchstone Pictures as well since they are a part of Buena Vista.

touchstone and hollywood pictures are actually walt disney in disguise, that is used to release adult movies prior to pirates. miramax, however, it's completely different.

Hollywood pictures is another seperate division of Buena Vista. I'm not really sure what they do but it's another low end studio. Don't know if they do Blu-Ray or not. It's definitely not the same thing as Touchstone pictures though.

Yes Touchstone and Disney are but they release movies under seperate brands. It's the same company, but need to both be mentioned. Hollywood pictures is a subsidiary though.

I know they are, I'm agreeing with you. However, since Touchstone releases Blu-Ray in a seperate brand they need to be mentioned as well. Dreamworks and Paramount are both owned by Viacom but they are both listed.

touchstone is definitely BD: apocalypto

Dimension confuses the living crap out of me i so don't know what i should do with that.... some are exclusive HD some are exclusive Blu... and besides entire Weinstein thing is in question if the Halloween movie comes out on Blu-ray then they are neutral no?
