Unfortunately, those are the people that will decide this so-called format war. Not the guys around here.

That right there is an advantage of remaining a niche format.

Does it sometimes feel like you are one of the 300 Spartans up against the million or so Persians.

Re: Proof that J6P has enetered the realm of Hi-Def
Post 3 is definitely the best. Being a filmmaker - that was simply hilarious.
I've posted it here so all can enjoy (or cower in a corner and cry - you decide.)
Here ya go...
My gf told me that the reason many Sony movies are releasing in Asia the same day as in the West (effectively allowing us to see them sooner here in Asia) is because many Sony movies are shot digitally. By doing this, they remove the middle-man of having to make film copies for each theater. They can quickly and easily get the movie into multiple theaters. She says this is giving Sony an edge over here, and is influencing the local Asian movie-makers to shoot on digital film. Having the movie on a digital theater format allows theaters to add more screens quickly, if the movie is a hit. In "opening day" fights between local movies and Hollywood movies, this is a big advantage, and can decide which film gets more screens and more money-making potential.... so Asian studios are starting to go with digital film, instead of the traditional route.
I thought I heard somewhere that this also makes transfer to BR much easier, cleaner, and it can also be made to fill up the screen more easily because it's shot that way sometimes.
I'm no film expert, but she was telling me all about what she'd heard on the news... this is what I remember.
DEAR LORD - PLEASE LET HD REMAIN A NICHE FORMAT!!!
Cheers,
Jason

Re: Proof that J6P has enetered the realm of Hi-Def
Yeah, that thread really makes me wonder about the demographics of the different formats.
Also, nice to know that Sony has cornered the market on shooting films digitally |
