Default Bay says "wait it out" transformers on blu-ray soon enough?

Quote:
"It's short-sighted and it has delayed consumers' moving to HD (home video)," he says. "As a director, my critical eye is that Blu-ray is where my money is. Consumers are smart, and they are going to wait it out."
Oh no he's just called every hd dvd buyer not smart. Nah maybe not it's a bit of a stretch.

Says Bay after he cashes his multi-million dollar check given to him by Paramount from Transformer DVD and HD DVD royalties.

This guy needs to shut his trap.

And watch when Transformers comes out on Blu-ray it'll sell around twice as much....

Bay sees the trend.

Exclusivity is a bitch. I bet Halo would sell more if it were on the PS brand as well...

I think Paramount and Toshiba will be plenty happy with the first week numbers from Transformers HD DVD.

I don't think anyone cares what Bay has to say...he'll retract it tomorrow when Paramount calls him and remins him they paid for his mansion and Porsche.

Spielberg already jumped his ass over his last fit, saying "You do know you can be replaced?" What a whiner!

Yes that oracle of consumer electronics trends Michael "but wait, my friends have Playstations" Bay. It's not the first the time he's thrown his toys out of the pram...

Oh boy, here we go again! Either the red kool-aid has worn off or Steven Spielberg is starting to rub off on Bay.

He just reminds me of the ADD kid who cant concentrate and says the firs thing that comes to mind...he has no "stop saying things off the cuff" filter.
