LOL @ HD-DVD

The chapter skip works on those.

Ugh, really? I was using the PS3, and just hitting the Top Menu button, which usually takes you to the main menu. I didn't try Chapter Skip. Okay, maybe unjustified rage then.

lol

I own both players so I don't care what comes out on what, as long as it looks good. In three years or whenever the new consoles come out and the players switch it'll matter to me, but we'll also have cheap multi-platform players by then. So yeah, I'm good.

but hey, instead of buying the cg 2 hour ad called transformers, I'll just go grab pixar flicks on bluray

Yep, fuck shrek.

i actually looked in a Best Buy ad this weekend. i can't believe they try to charge $35 for one fucking movie.

Best Buy has some of the worst prices on HD & Blu-Ray movies. They're typically exactly at the MSRP. So far I haven't found a B&M store that I'll buy new HD flicks from, online prices (mainly amazon) tend to be way better.

I noticed somebody said this means that there will be no Indy 4 on Blu-Ray...but isn't the ENTIRE Indy Triology Paramount? Or at least the first movie is...doesn't the Paramount Mountain Logo fade into a real mountain at the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark? Or were the rights to the original triology sold to a different studio?

All of them are Paramount.

[B-Ri]

So by now you've heard that Paramount has dropped support for Blu-ray right? Good, so has a notable Hollywood director. Michael Bay -- the man behind "Transformers," "Bad Boys," "Pear Harbor," etc. -- just threw down with Paramount in his personal blog. In a forum post titled "Paramount pisses me off!", he states, "I want people to see my movies in the best formats possible. For them to deny people who have Blu-ray sucks! They were progressive by having two formats. No Transformers 2 for me!"

lol, i still hate you bay.

[bbobb]

Paramount has done us all a great boon.

The best prices I have found (about 95% of the time) have been from target.com. While the targets around me have maybe 15 titles per format, I just print off the page for the movie I want and price match at CC or BB. Usually save around $5-$10 that way.

Translation:

For them to deny people who have Blu-ray is just what I was looking for to bitch about. Bigger Transformers 2 moneyhat for me!"
