Default I was neutral...
I'm sure nobody really cares but I used to be neutral. I'm not sure which format (if either) will win. But yesterday I bought the bdp-s300. I wanted a hi def player very bad. I guess I went bd casue there are more companies supporting it. And in my house(my fiance) Disney rules. There are movies I will miss like serenity and Batman Begins which are two of my favorites but oh well. I'm not even a fan boy. Do I know Blu Ray will win. No. Do I care. I guess I do know. I guess all that matters to me know is that Universal goes neutral. I guess I'm thinking out loud here trying to justify my purchase.
Aw heck, Black Hawk Down in HD justifies it for me.

Take a page out of the Blockbuster boycott book, write Universal a letter and tell them to go neutral.

That's my primary reason for choosing Blu-ray, "That's it, that's all it is."

Welcome aboard.

If he can't be sure it is with no release date how can you be sure it isn't going to be on Blu ray this year? I suspect we will see many delayed warner titles after the Halloween deadline.
