Which by the way is an awesome movie. I thought they did a good job with it.

Now here is the problem i had last night. I had the winning raffle ticket to 2nd in place best assistant manager. I won An 80GB PS3 + 2 controllers + Assassins creed + and get this the best pissing me off part of the whole thing, I got 3 FREE HD DVD MOVIES ALONG TO GO WITH IT. MY BOSS ACTUALLY THOUGHT THAT HD DVDS CAN PLAY IN PS3.

I FELT SUCH RAGE, no reciept was given to me so i can't return the movies and exchange with BDs. and i can't believe my boss with a 20 years experience with digital cinema and projection can't tell a difference between HDDVD and BD.

Do you guys know of any way that i can exchange the 3 hddvd films without having the reciepts.

let me know..

I dunno.

Anycase, you up at Doswell or another one of the parks?

I personally loved the one up in Doswell, but that was back when I was a NSA family person, and they had park days for us heh.

Hey - I was gonna suggest that!

It's not like you're out any money on the things. Destroy them in a fun way and get yourself some YouTube fame.

Burn them = still counts as movies sold - BAD
Return them to WalMart, exchange for 2 Blu-ray's = -2 HD DVD, +2 BLU - GOOD

Yes i have, but if there is a way i can find to switch the HD Crap to BD, then i would rather take advantage of it.
