In Reply to: What is the HD DVD camp thinking? posted by Jazz Inmate on December 18, 2007 at 20:48:36:
Both lists read largely like a list of box-office/critical failures. If this is the best the studios are willing to do, HDM will fail in the marketplace.
This garbage reminds me a lot of what Sony and Warner did to SACD and DVD-Audio - they created the formats, and then held back the best of their catalogs, preferring to release obscure/2nd-string junk on the hi-rez.
Sad.
