Disney, Lions Gate and Fox to HD DVD? Also MGM See Post #94

Rob_HD · 05-26-2006, 12:55 PM

This is a petition I saw over on AVS Forum.

It is to call on Disney and Lions gate to start supporting HD DVD with releases.

SIgn it!!

Tell Your friends to sign it!!

Post the links on other sites!

Send it to your MOTHER !

EDIT - OK - I may as well get these points out of the way:

1) The petition contains a number of problems said to exist with Bluray - some of these are stated as coming from industry sources on other forums (with links to the posts, for proper context) and others are widely known.

2) I'm not Rdjam, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night

3) There is a lot of criticism and ridiculing of the petition in this thread - specifically by those who oppose HD DVD - in an apparent attempt to reduce support for it - ignore these attacks and sign anyway if you are an HD DVD supporter.

*** EDIT *** A petition has now also gone online for FOX Studios (which also now will control MGM's titles for Home Video releases, since MGM took it away from Sony this week). The petition for FOX is here - http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...26#post2879526

How many times are you going to repost this?

The admins are going to delete at least one of these, I bet — they consider repetitively posting the same thing to be very rude. Verb. sap.

Not trying to be rude LG - As someone on the other posted suggested, the first post was in the hardware section and it better suited to the software section.

Don't be so sensitive

ChristopherDAC · 05-26-2006, 01:28 PM

LG? What?

Never mind. I agree it's more sensible here. That's not the point I'm making, just that people who've been on the board a long time have been warned in this same area for somehting similar, only involving existing threads. You might be interested to know that you can contact a moderator and have your threads moved, if you think they're out of place. They seem to appreciate being asked.

I'm pretty sure this is RDjam, who originally posted these same "petitions" over on AVS. Nice that he's disingenuously suggesting he just found them.

no thanks.

Why, Blu-Ray is the superios format and they are doing the correct thing by supporting it exclusivly

Hang on a sec - the petition is a good thing. You can't close a thread down just because you don't like HD DVD supporters rallying?

And no, I'm not RDJAM - why, can't anyone else support HD DVD too?

He is talking about posting the same thread in multiple places on the same forum--bad form, dude. We get the point.
