A LITTLE BLURAY NEWS

Paramount Set to Drop HD DVD for Blu-ray:

How many "death blows" will it take for Blu-ray to finally win the format war against HD DVD? I've been hearing that phrase (and writing about it) since July 2007. Well here comes another one. Following in the footsteps of Warner Brothers' abandonment of the HD DVD format, reports are surfacing that Paramount is headed to Blu-ray as well.

I think BlueRay will ultimately win out over HD DVD. Too many major houses have made the decision for BR. Also note that the rental companies are focused on BR as well.

One cool thing is when you buy and HD player you get 5 free movies. It took me a couple of months to get mine. You can pick your movies from 5 lists. They don't guarantee you'll get the pick, they can sub another flick if they want.

I got mine in and was delighted they didn't substitute BLAZING SADDLES, that is a great movie I can watch over and over and to have it on BR is even sweeter.

Another great flick was Hart's War. Excellent war movie with Bruce Willis. I got Devil's Rejects but for some reason it doesn't play on my PS3. There is a warning on the DVD case that this is the latest in BR and you may need to update your firmware.
Well I have my PS3 hooked up to my wireless network at home and did the latest firmware update and it still doesn't work. Bummer, I really wanted to see that on BR. Maybe Sony will update their PS3 again soon to make it work.

I absolutely love Blade Runner, one of my all time favorites. I have to get it on BR too. I have the original release of Blade Runner and the director's cut which I didn't like as much. I found the narration by Harrison Ford to really work with that movie. I hope the BR version has the narration as in the original

I don't see any reason why most popular films no matter how old can't or won't be updated to HD. It's going to be interesting.

I found StarGate at Fry's on BlueRay and it's another good flick.
