Re: I Am Legend on DVD, HD DVD and Blu-ray

It's great that it's coming out on HD DVD, but I'm still wondering why WB is even bothering. I mean, if they broke contracts to drop HD DVD in the first place and they think going to one unified format is best, why are they continuing to release titles for a few months? It's not making things easier that's for sure.

Why not Blu Ray to expensive for you?

No we just more class better style

Yeah, nice grammar.

No I can afford Blu Ray. However just because something costs more doesn't mean it is better.

Hoodaguy, I'm anxiously awaiting for you or anyone else to provide PROOF that Warner "broke contracts to drop HD DVD". You speak as it you're an insider to knowledge of contract terms between the various entities. Quit gossiping and provide FACTS to support your FUD opinion.

As I said on another thread... by the end of May 2008 Warner will have completed a full 2 years of supporting HD-DVD with releases. This is possibly all that they committed too back in 2006. Unlike hoodaguy, I don't know the legal details [contract terms etc], so I'm speculating here when I now say: starting in June 2008, WB no longer has to support HD-DVD, since their contract may have ended.

But if you know otherwise, I'd like to see the info.

So Tim, is that what Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson are up to now that the nfl is no longer a distraction to their relationship?

Has anyone who emailed WB execs about their recent blu-ray decision received a response yet? I'm just curious.

Yes, they told me to shut up and quit crying about it!

Kind of a smart response. My wife just walked in the room and read your comment. She just told me "you nerds really fight on this site". I never said in my post that the response was related to a negative email sent to WB. There are some blu-ray supporters that I'm sure sent emails as well. Did they get a response? I'd like to know.
Too bad Tim that us "nerds" just can't get along huh. I could respond with a likewise rude comment but I'm too old for it. Oh and I have a life too. I'm going to spend time with my wife right now. Have fun continuing to insult people through the mighty computer screen.

Ummmm no but considering that even up here in Canada everyone is talking about the upcomng recession in the U.S. it looks like bluray is going to be expensive for a lot of people.
