Just ordered Matrix Trilogy and Hot Fuzz. Probably drop by The Curve later and see if there is anything new.

Anyone know is the Ultimate Avengers Movie was a Bluray exclusive?

Aiseh. Was looking forward to do that. Looks like I'll have to resort to other means. Someone should run a local HD-DVD rental

Hmm, do Fedex or Vpost Centre provide such service? Wouldn't they need to repackage the whole thing for you?

Its sort of a redirecting service. They receive the package on your behalf and then ship it to you. It might work for the HD-DVD thing. It needs HSBC credit card to work for Malaysians though.

You can also try www.comgateway.com

Get a HD-DVD player! Probably will get the normal DVD for it. Wasn't a fan of the movie.

But Paramount going HD-DVD exclusive is drooling prospect. Look at their upcoming titles!

They have Beowulf, Rainbow Six, Splinter Cell, Iron Man, Indiana Jones!

I differ. I rather they just decide and jump even if it is not the choice that I have made.

Not everyone can afford to look at both formats for the exclusives. So I rather they stick to one. And when they do, hardware manufacturers can also stick to one, mass produce the player and prices will go down.

Video shops will finally know which one to stock up and then pricing will also stabilise because it won't be a niche thing. At least thats what I believe

I always thought of it as economy of scale. Right now, its niche so they mark up so the profit margin remains for them.

If more people adopt the format, more sales, they can lower the price and go for quantity to get the same or even higher profits. Hard to say which view is correct - whether single format or dual format.

But I would say Ori DVDs in this country is more affordable now. I picked up Constantine ystd for RM29.90

Constantine out..ages ago? Haha but I haven't seen it so it was all good for me.

300 two-disc edition is RM69.90 so I will still say its affordable

Haha I dont see many titles I want from Paramount

What titles are you buying silencer? Eh, you got so many titles, do rental service wei

Ermm havent gone to that part yet haha coz I only tested to see if it was nice and clear. But I did see his butt in the scene selection.

Charge deposit RM150. Rent one disc at a time only. If scratched, you keep the deposit

String I tot sudah pegi US, how to rent from him?

rx: RM69.90 is normal DVD, not HD-DVD

And that is the price you can get anywhere from Speedy Video to CWF in Cineleisure

And I think 300 is quite a bad movie to show off HD-DVD because of the artsy fartsy style they used for the movie.

Hrmm..since this is my first foray into the HD-DVD forums, do you guys share shipment from Amazon?

rx: Let me see tonight and I shall answer your questions! Hahaha...but I did see Mr.300's butt in one of the scene selections.

Ermm hardcore is definitely more. Softcore, the line blurs

@silencer Blades of Glory HD-DVD tak yah lah..overkill...ur shipment full already..haha tak boleh tumpang

@arj Ooo ordering someting this week? Hrmm might want to tumpang some HD-DVD Eyeing the Bourne Identity........or maybe the Heroes Season 1...arghh...decision decision

@rx Just tested the 300 DVD. Uncensored glorious errmm juggly you know what.

Woohoo..DHL is the best courier man

My shipment has arrived!

Haha isnt that normal? But UPS and Fedex has already delayed my shipment twice because it cleared Customs late.

Whereas DHL has so far delivered one day ahead of schedule. Hrmm..

I was just reading the Michael Bay thread on the BD forum. They worshipped him like a god and then later said he was bought out or threatened with legal suit by Paramount.

Funny people. Why are people so passionate about the two formats? Its only a damn disc.

Hrmm..anyone getting Season 1 of Heroes? Looking really tempting now

Buy 3 free 1 I think on Amazon.

These are the list of titles that will work:
