QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Aug 22 2007, 09:51 PM) check out the movie section,transformers thread, and snuff out the bluray fanboys ( if they loved the movie in that thread,BR fanboy.if they didnt like the movie in that thread,then they really dont fancy the movie  ) What has that got to do with anything about being a BR fanboy?

QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Aug 22 2007, 10:30 PM) like silencer said; QUOTE(silencer) hmmm...out of sudden..so many people say that they dont really like transformers.... if in this thread they say the movie was "meh.." but in the transformers thread they go "WOAH! AWESOME! MOTY!!" then you know they say the movie is so-so in this thread,because it is only going to hd dvd  Totally unrelated dude! I dun see how you came up with that conclusion.  Transformers was originally coming to both HDDVD n BD, but thanks to some genius, it's available only in 1 format, not both!

Whatever it is, if the BD fanboys are pissed. They have every right to feel so. What's wrong with that? So the hddvd fanboys can all now act tough just boz they have more exclusives now eh? I can't understand why must there be such a loyalist to either formats at this early stage where there's still an unclear winner on the format wars.

QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Aug 22 2007, 11:19 PM)  why is there even loyalty in the first place? i dont see the benefit in giving everything to one company  Which is why i felt what Paramount and Dreamworks are doing rite now are a step backwards by limiting the consumers choice.

QUOTE(silencer @ Aug 23 2007, 01:08 AM) Simple..because not everyone can afford to enjoy both formats.... And some people..dont even can afford the price of original media too...and it's about choice that we r all free to decide ourselves...and definitely, it will be based on our interests.... Limiting the consumers choice???? With upcoming cheaper HD-DVD players....and I believe the HD-DVD owners..will have greater choice...and do you mean that when evrything is under a Sony, the price of media disk will be cheaper, with greater PQ....region free....naaaa...I prefer to let the competition decide it..a unified format which benefits all...by the way, the price for either HD-DVD and BD r still too expensive though...  Don't cha geddit? By supporting only HDDVD, then the consumers are forced to pick only one. So the one's with BD players are forced to buy HDDVD players just for movies that won't appear on BD. So it's not about choice anymore. Why please one side when you could already please both in the first place?

QUOTE(silencer @ Aug 23 2007, 02:09 AM) Hmmm..how about for the people with HD-DVD players ONLY....who want to watch the movies in BD...dont they have to do the same too...buy the BD player...let me c...do u mean that all studio should support both formats...just like Warner....i believe those studio will only follow where the money will lead them to.... it's a business world anyway...where consumer rights and social obligations is at the bottom end of the company policy...  This one i really have to agree.  I was speaking about choices where it concerns about Paramount & Dreamworks decision of supporting only one format instead of two. If more studios from the BD camp would also support HDDVD, then that's good news to the consumers, but at the same time nulling the format wars. Ah... such is life.  I'll stick to DVD and 'alternative' HD movies then.
