BLU-RAY

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (Warner)

Actually, amazon shows T3 with a December 18 release date; still, there are plenty of titles left on December 4. I believe I have at least four titles ordered for that day, so far.

Me 3. I just ordered Pirates 3 and ID4, and I will order Terminator 3 since it's from Warner. I better dial 911 and get myself on lifesupport--I'm brain dead three or four times over.

3 votes so far for 100:0? I think that would be impossible to obtain unless HD DVD was dead by then.

richard lichtenfelt · 11-03-2007, 01:35 AM

The PS3 will probably be selling well over 200,000 units each month from now till Xmas. This should be easier than getting bootie in Vegas. 80/20 blu.

Freakin Zombies taking over the forum.

ESUNintel · 11-03-2007, 01:38 AM

I already pre-ordered Pirates at Best Buy, and I'll likely get Sunrise Earth too.

JadedRaverLA · 11-03-2007, 02:32 AM

It's gotta be at least 80:20. "50 Paintings form the Museum of Modern Art" on BD should trounce all over HD DVD!

Smallville206 · 11-03-2007, 02:33 AM

Battlestar will do quite well I think, I know I want it on Blu ray.

DetroitSportsFan · 11-03-2007, 02:37 AM

Put me down for:

Superbad
Terminator 3
Independence Day
Castaway
Pirates 3

It should be in the 80:20 range.

As for Battlestar Gallactica, give me the original series, not some crappy remake.

I don't think BSG will do super good, since some of us already got suckered in to buying the s1 UK edition & then the s1 US edition

& that will put some off. + Us BGS fans are smart & hddvd well... is not for the smart educated, techno savy people, but will see.

Edit: 76-78% Blu Ray

POTC3 for me that week, have not seen it, but got the others....

GarettP · 11-03-2007, 02:54 AM

I personally will probably be adding ID4, POTC 3, and Ronin at least on that day, I can't wait to finally see POTC3 and Ronin on Blu, I know ID4 should be amazing PQ and AQ.

Uxi · 11-03-2007, 04:55 AM

Independence Day (Fox)
Mr. & Mrs. Smith (Fox)
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (Buena Vista)
Ronin (MGM)
Battlestar Galactica: Season One (Universal)

Are all on my list. Given the former 5, I'll probably wait a week or two to get Battlestar Galactica.

Overall, I'm thinking Blu-ray will win the week at probably 82-84 or so.

xtop · 11-03-2007, 12:53 PM

wow i didn't know all these amazing movies were releasing that week. can't wait!

UTVOL06 · 11-03-2007, 04:51 PM

I'll be getting Pirates 3 no doubt..as for the others I'm not so sure.

Should be a huge ball crunching week for Blu-ray. I predict 85 Blu.

$900 million box office sales says everyone said it didn't suck. This is a great buy, and especially since there are so many people with the first 2 in their collection, this will be the perfect addition. I bet this movie outsells spiderman 3 by a long shot.
