Well, in the case of a movie like ³Transformers², SAG could care less. Most of the time you¹re looking at stuff that doesn¹t exist. It¹s why most of us who bought Laser Discs went for digital media in the first place...for sci-fi pictures where you want to see the background and mecha in greater

I think Blu Ray wins this. Paramount are just being jerks because they can be, but just like Disney who said they wouldn't support DVD at first -- Paramount WILL come around. I agree that a big player in this is Sony. Once PS-3's exclusive Halo title comes out, whatever that turns out to be, and

True. But I was also thinking about the Places In The Heart set of movies, those that often depend on actors looking *good*. As rabid Barbra Streisand is about how she appears on film, you can bet that she'll veto any of *her* movies going to BluRay Daryle [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I don't watch either, but I want Blu-ray to prevail simply because of the dirty tricks that have been played. Based on what I seen, the public prefers Blu-Ray. I think it is in big demand on Netflix. Regarding the adult industry, I'm aware that they are a huge financial heavy weight, and in

is it true. Seriously, some people on the movie boards sometimes sound repulsed by how the actors sometimes look. I'm sure cameramen, lighting teams and makeup artists will adapt in time Tracey Martin wrote: Surprised that SAG would let that fly. Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L.

Yeah, most people think Blu-Ray if they think of the technology at all. This is probably the last great battle for physical media, as the future (hopefully) holds digital storage. (I've been waiting decades for holographic storage). -- Original message -- From: Tracey

Tracey, the answer to your question and the reasoning behind Bay recanting his no sequel vow are one and the same- *money*. For the former, whichever format makes the most money will prevail. I won't begin to venture a guess, because I don't particularly care. I'm not going to get sucked into

I should send you my e-mails over this from the last couple of years. I've been following this battle for a few years now, and my money's on Blu-Ray. For several reasons, I support Blu-Ray. One, it has higher storage. Blu-Ray has a maximum possible storage capacity of around 45 - 50+ gb per
