Quality vs. Quantity

[Balian]

I'm sorry but if you bought a blu-ray for Kingdom of Heaven then that says a lot about your taste in movies.

Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut was a great movie ...perhaps my favorite Blu-ray title thus far ....it was in the same ballpark as The Prestige and The Departed. I have seated through 3 hrs 9 mins of it three times already. The director's cut version blew the theatrical version out of the water. Ridley Scott's cinematography is always top notched. If any movie deserves the HD treatment, its Kingdom of Heaven along the likes of LotR and other epics.

The real problem with this thread is that quality is different for every person. It is a very individual thing. There really is no way to prove that one format is of better quality than the other. At the same time, I can see people being drawn to one format or the other (or both) due to the fact that there are exclusive titles for both that appeal to certain types of people.

Whats wrong with Pop corn movies?

I happen to like all kinds of movies. You just have to figure out what your taste is and from that which movies to get.

yea. To me, big budget action movies are quality movies while slower, independent films tend to suck.

its all opinion and trying to narrow it down by saying HD DVD crowd buys more mature type films and Blu-ray crowd buys more action explosion films is childish at best.

Basicly, its somebody who is trying to justify the decline of a format in anyway

I am always a sucker for historical and time period epics. To me, HD really shines with such material. Drama is okay but I don't get too excited watching dialog movies in HD.
