What will Warner say at the HD-DVD keynote? - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Clark Kent · 01-04-2008, 09:12 PM

They won't be speaking at the HD DVD keynote address now. HD DVD braintrust won't allow it for P.R. reasons. Plans change in business.

Im surprised WB went Blu ray exclusive before the show even start.

I know, I would have thought they would wait but I guess not. Should be funny to see what happens there.

I'm not. It's actually a genius move if you think about it. Now all the attention is on WB and Blu-ray before CES even begins. I find it hard to believe that anyone can top this news between now and the end of CES.

It could be topped. Not within the realm of reason though.

could be topped by Paramount and/or Universal announcing a switch.

Maybe there hoping the smaller HD DVD studio's will announce a format change as well.

You have to think the HD DVD supports are rewriting there speeches now.

bigmf · 01-04-2008, 09:28 PM

They will say one of the following:

Ow! stop throwing eggs please.

Ahem... ahem... um AAAHHHEEEMMMMM.

Wow this is kind of awkward.

marinelife9 · 01-04-2008, 09:33 PM

I bet they still speak. They will probably just talk about the titles that are being released before May. And spout out the HD-DVD numbers from last year.

Proteus · 01-04-2008, 09:34 PM

Warner may show up to re-assure that they will release something though May 2008; however, doubtful.

I'd be more concerned with what Universal and Paramount/Dreamworks will say...

At this point everyone in the HDDVD camp is going to kind of look like fools if they say anything besides "we fought the good fight, we tried for what we believed... we failed. Congratulations BDA. We look forward to working with you."

Talking about an awkward moment.

"Anyone want to talk about attach rates?"

Blu Titan · 01-04-2008, 11:34 PM

Warner's response will mirror my own from five minutes ago. Wife asks BlueNeon, "Want to go by my Mom's house now for a while and drink some Cuban cafe?" Answer: "Olvidate de eso...Forget Bout it."

Joon · 01-04-2008, 11:35 PM
