Boycott Paramount

[Selrahcterb]

I, like nearly everyone on this site, thinks that Paramount and sister studios are ball-less for making the move to they made to drop blu ray support, when blu ray was noticeably winning the format war. I think the best way we can all show them what they did was stupid is by refusing to support the studio. This means not buying any Paramount movies (past blu ray movies released, SD DVD movies, seeing their movies in the theatres). The most painful spot to hit them is in the wallet!

There are many threads on this already.

This is a totally new idea.

I wouldn't pay a rusty penny to these guys. Speilberg directed (maybe produced as well when the dust settles) films will be on blu-ray and the rest of Speilberg films that don't make it out from this company's Paramount mistake, I will gladly wait for. Or just laugh my ass off during the next 18 months as people in high positions loose their jobs, major internal restructuring occurs and all for naught as they just screwed themselves in the Hi Def market place. When and if Paramount makes it back to the blu side, I will be extremely selective on anything they release. They won't be getting any fluff buys from me. They are going to have to work their way back very hard with a great deal of humility till my wallet opens up to any large degree of titles they have to offer. I'd rather have Universal any old day. If Universal was to go blu and save face, now would be the time to do it as all of the negative attension is on Paramount. No one would have a negative word for Universal and we would rejoice at getting them into the fold! Paramount can just go F*%*$ off as far as I'm concerned.

im sorry but Stardust was a good movie, i for one will miss not being able to get that on Blu-ray. I suppose it will be available at some point when Paramount decides or is forced to go back to supporting Blu-ray.
