What movie studios need to learn about Hi-DEF (Blu-Ray)?

I am a proponent of high definition in general and Blu-Ray in particular (Because it is better technology than HD-DVD, even though it is more expensive).





What movie studios need to learn is which movies to offer. Hi-Definition favors the action and heavy special effects movies, not comedies or dramas.





How many people are going to spend the extra cash over a DVD to get National Lampoon's Van Wilder, or Blazing Saddles , or Badder Santa: Unrated in High Definition?





What is the best selling high definition disc?-It's 300 on Blue Ray.





What movies would you like to see on Blu-Ray?











Mine include: Spiderman 1-3, Star Wars 1-6, Lord of the Rings 1-3, Independence Day, Cars, The Matrix, Sin City, Star Trek:First Contact, X-Men 1%26amp;2

Blu ray and HD DVD are both OK formats, but you will never get them to dominate the market unless:





Dual format players that do EVERYTHING discrete one do.


Allow the use of component video at the highest resolutions.


Allow for discrete analog outputs for all formats.





Until that happens the high end community will not stand behind one or the other.

Reply:Thanks again for proving how unreliable Yahoo answers' voting system is. Report It

Reply:I agree with flapjack. This dual format war is benefiting no one, and is only hurting the migration to HD.





At this rate, there is a real possibility that by the time the mass market has upgraded to HDTV, there will be a newer, better technology on the market that causes them to leapfrog HD-DVD/Blu-Ray entirely!
