Lionsgate has announced that their fiscal first-quarter home entertainment revenue is up 47% from the same period last year, mostly due to the increase in sales of their films on the Blu-ray disc format. For the quarter ending June 30th, revenue was $152.2M, up from $103.8M a year earlier. With overall spending similar to last year, Lionsgate is gradually increasing their market share against the larger studios

You could say the blu-Ray has saved their buts! I still do not like Lionsgate movies for the most part...

honkyspade,

Hmmmm, that's, what?, four or five posts from you today, all of them touting or defending Blu-ray in some way or another. I thought the format war was over, or is Sony hedging its bets?

Movies like the Saw franchise are a goldmine for them. Cheap to make and they always bring in the $$$. You might see more Saw movies than Friday the 13th before they're done.
