In general, maybe we should do this every 6 months and that will give the studios time to bring more great titles out. (October 15 and April 15)

Nice idea & I agree. It's fun too. Hope someone could remind us in future :D

Okay, somebody please take my credit cards away and cut them up please ;)

Just placed my 3rd order of the day...

(Pre)Ordered:

The Game
Smokin' Aces
The 40 Year Old Virgin
Midnight Run
The Frighteners
The Big Lebowski
Liar Liar
The Untouchables

Total for the day: 15 HD-DVD's Ordered from Amazon (about 12 more than I had planned - but that's OK!) :)

This is what my wife is probably going to do if she finds out about my orders. :D

Great news for Amazon! ;)

No kidding. They didn't even have to give us a 50% off sale... I can just imagine if they offer a 50% off sale on HD DVD in the near future : some people might get blu in the face :D Zap! You've been rayed.

Well, I'm betting nearly half this thread is comprised of pre-orders, but it'll still be a busy shift for somebody! =)

I think I'll be jumping in on the HD race sometime this year (Summer or by the new year at the latest). The Samsung dual looks really good, though I may just get one of the very nicely priced Toshiba's before then.

Despite not owning a player, I went ahead and did my part. Ordered Children of Men. Thinking about picking up a few others (Hollywoodland, Happy Feet, Smokin' Aces).

I already own three HD DVD movies (all combos--The Departed, Good Night and Good Luck and Superman Returns). I had Kiss Kiss, but no longer.

Can't wait to actually see them in HD.

Well I was going to order some pre-orders but decided I will hold off a bit. I did order A Scanner Darkly and pre-ordered Complete Matrix Trilogy though.

Love to order Planet Earth with everyone else, but with the cost of the Matrix and the fact that I'm watching PE on TV right now I'm going to wait a while on it.

This group buy was fun to watch. Hopefully sales will stay up!

I was going to get one of the ones discussed in this thread alot, but my boss just purchased an amazing Pioneer Elite, and an HD DVD player and his Exotic Saltwater Aquariums HD DVD just made my knees weak

I was going to buy PE via Amazon.ca, until I realized it was quite a bit cheaper through Amazon.com since there's No TaX! : :eek:

I think I'll be jumping in on the HD race sometime this year (Summer or by the new year at the latest). The Samsung dual looks really good, though I may just get one of the very nicely priced Toshiba's before then.

Despite not owning a player, I went ahead and did my part. Ordered Children of Men. Thinking about picking up a few others (Hollywoodland, Happy Feet, Smokin' Aces).

I already own three HD DVD movies (all combos--The Departed, Good Night and Good Luck and Superman Returns). I had Kiss Kiss, but no longer.

Can't wait to actually see them in HD.

this is how it started for me. i bought a combo disk a few weeks before getting my a1.

today, i will reach 100 hd dvd titles when i place my order for Ultimate Matrix set. :D

Oh darn, planet earth is on my list. ARGH, if only i had more cash right now. I only could get one disk today though. Maybe I need to take them up on that offer of an Amazon credit card... =P

No worries though, over the next 4 weeks I will be placing 2 more substantial orders, PE will be in one of them. I just wish it had worked out that my spare cash had landed this week. As it is, it did, but some other matters took priority.

No worries. I'm sure everyone would like to see a sustained surge rather than just one day. What happened today was astonishing. What would be even MORE astonishing would be a sustained lead.

I order four today and plan on ordering at least one more a week for the next four weeks. I haven't bought any since this thread was instigated.

It does make me wonder what the numbers on Amazon would have been like today if Warner didn't have their sale.

I'm sad to say 38 ... i couldn't stop myself! 14 In Stock's 24 Preorders. I haven't bought a HD-DVD in over 2 months. I know I went overboard but I rationalized it by saying... the preorders are spread out over the summer... Plus I did skip the 5/8 new releases :)

04-15-07, 09:32 PM
I ordered 5 HD-DVD's earlier today, and just decided to give in and order another 3 just now which brings my total for today up to 8. I am not on that list, but that's because I mostly lurk around on this forum.


Animal House
12 Monkeys
Excalibur
Payback
Goodfellas
Casino
The Departed
The Good Shepherd.

I think this is at least the third Amazon/HD DVD purchase day we had here on AVS. I like to think I helped instigate the first one but to tell the truth since then I’ve felt it more relevant to just consistently continue to order the movies as they become available rather then putting off any purchases I would have made to wait for one specific day.

But since these days have caused a few extra blind buys and everyone seems happy with it, I think the first purchase day we had was last September but I’d have to look it up to be sure I’d suggest that being the next big purchase day and would also wind up being the 2nd annual one.

Anyway as for today’s purchases, I already have a good sized library of HD DVD’s ( 72 so far ) so I have pretty much all that I want that has already been released so my purchases for today had to be all pre-orders. Today I have pre-ordered the following 11 titles including two that were box sets:

1 Battle of the Bulge
2 Born on the Fourth of July
3 Dragonheart
4 Dreamgirls
5 Failure to Launch
6 Game, The
7 Letters from Iwo Jima
8 Matrix, The - Complete Trilogy
9 Planet Earth: The Complete Collection
10 Road Warrior, The
11 The Untouchables


BTW I wasnt on the original list for today so these titles have not been counted for me previously

I wonder how many more Planet Earth sets it would take to break the current #5 ranking and leave BR in the dust for a while.

no matter what the BD FUDboys say, looks like this has been a great success, with Planet Earth, a $70 set no less, reaching #5 so far. great idea, SoulOnice! Can't wait to get my copy of planet earth. hopefully hd dvd can keep this positive momentum going into the holiday shopping season!

Since everyone kept mentioning how high Planet Earth was going up the charts I decided to investigate and see if it was something I really would want to watch. With 2 girls still in school and interested in this type of programming, it seems like a no brainer, so I went ahead and added it to my order for today. I had 12 discs preordered before today and now I have a total of 18. All HD-DVD.

Well in making the transition from lurker to poster, I'll let everyone know what I ordered. Here are the purchases I made (all preorders):

1) Eternal Sunshine
2) Mission Impossible 2
3) The Fountain (blind buy, but I'm a huge Aronofsky fan)
4) The Untouchables


I had planned to get Smokin' Aces on Amazon today as well, but Best Buy here in Canada actually had an awesome preorder price. So I got it from there instead.


Anways, theres 4 more to add to the tally, these ones are going to Canada. I'm in St. John's, NL, probably the only one on here this far east.

WOW!!!!!!! I guess HD DVD is not dead after all. Anyway I just ordered my second Planet Earth (HD DVD) for my little brother...who went format neutral just 3 weeks ago. He has been a BD only fan from the very beginning...since HD DVD players are under $300 and Universal started releasing titles again he couldn't resist anymore. I have been saying all along HD DVD would survive the BD onslaught of misinformation and their huge marketing campaign. To see Planet Earth at a $70 premium at number #5 just blows me totally away. I would have never thought this could happen. HD DVD is as strong as ever. I have also noticed quite a few BD only owners now going format neutral by picking up a HD DVD player…I guess Heroes on HD DVD was too much for them to handle. So all I can say is GOOD NEWS for HD DVD!!!!!! Have Fun! And stay in your own HD DVD forum and show some class…don’t be like MSpeed6 who has become the laughing stock of this forum. :)

http://www.hdgamedb.com/amazon/rank.aspx

Planet Earth currently sits at #5 as of 11:06PM EST on April 15th, 2007.


So can we choose how you will destroy your PS3? Because I'd like to see it blown apart from the inside using M-80's. Or something cool like they do on Braniac. Perhaps a race against gunpowder?

Hey guys, is this really significant? I mean 1500 discs is really just a drop in the bucket compared to a days DVD sales across the country, right? Don't get me wrong, I own an HD DVD player and want the format to succeed. But just how significant is this? Aren't we really quite a bit away from having any real market penetration as compared to DVD? Or do we only care about our success vs. BD? Inventory levels can be deceiving. Also there are tons of lurkers here for every poster here. A lot of people and many more than 1500 discs may have been sold.

Even if it was that low, it puts some of the Blu-ray hype into perspective.

But since HD DVD players sales are increasing with the price drops, more releases. greater retail inventory, POS presence and moving into the spring sales period, April 15th may move from a bit of symbolism to the start of a HD DVD sales surge.

At any rate , its tough for a Blu-ray PR guy to explain..... and it shows HD DVD is competitive with a little TLC.....

I bought 11 disks earlier (NONE were pre-orders) and just added Planet Earth pre-order. What a great day for HD DVD!

I just hope that a lot of the orders were NOT pre-orders so that we see a surge in numbers now and also some sustained growth as new titles are released. Either way, my XA2 will certainly be getting some MAJOR use starting Weds when my order arrives!

Way to go everyone!!! :D

How useful is this going to be since :

b) not everybody will pm you the number of discs bought

Not that I don't appreciate the effort, but since it will be quite incomplete, what conclusion will we be able to draw from that ?

Answer my question. I completely agree that it is an impressive feat, but will it remain for very long after the day is over?

How long did Casino Royale remain #7?

I ordered Assault on Precinct 13 and Smokin Aces.

I wil pre-order more titles thru the next few weeks to help keep HD DVD's numbers up.

Great day for HD DVD!

Totally amazing what we have all done in just one day! :D I enjoyed this thread a lot especially now seeing that PE is #5 that is just icing on the cake for me. Way to go everyone!! :)

PS3 vs. the blender sounds pretty good to me too! ;) Well he could drop a first generation HD XA1 on it. :D

That first generation HD DVD player, should be non the worse for wear, being built like a tank, while the PS3 would be pieces.....

The HD XA2 is pretty solid too pound for pound , but it has better uses ....

You mean like Blu-Ray sales skyrocketed because of the "50% off sale" ? :p

Actually, 'casino royale' was not a part of the 50% off sale neither was 'the departed' which remained at the top of the videoscan numbers. Select fox and sony titles participated and little changed in their ranking according to the nielsons.

I have 16 HD DVDs on preorder at Amazon including Ultimate Matrix set (counted as 1) and just pre-ordered Planet Earth Box Set and Monty Python's Meaning of Life. For the first time, there are way too many HD DVDs than I can order. Who says there are no movies to order in HD DVD? :)

Funny that you responded to me even though I never singled you out. ;)

As to answer your question, who can know for sure? The only thing that is certain is that it beat CR in ranking and that you came here to stir things up. You really need to go back to the BD forum unless you have something meaningful to add, instead of speculative fanboy FUD. Nobody here is claiming that PE will remain at #5 for weeks to come, so I don't see the point of your postings.

Umm, techically the 15th doesn't end until 3am. Amazon in West Coast and all their stuff is based on it. Your gold box doesn't update until then either.

3 hours to go.

Hi, tauheel05.

Planet Earth has been in the top 100 now for a while (maybe three or four weeks?). As for being in the top 25, I think it has been there for at least a week, maybe more. I guess we'll see.

Pretty cool that it beat Casino Royale's best ranking, though, eh?

Very true, it's been in the top 30 the last two weeks, so even without this stunt it was selling well.

Hi, tauheel05.

I believe it entered the top 100 on 3/26 (and has been there ever since).


No one is expecting this to outsell Casino Royale. I think the price tag and subject matter both work against that happening. Still, *any* HD/BD title hitting #5 at this stage is impressive. The fact that it is a $70 box set is that much more of a feat.

b) not everybody will pm you the number of discs bought

Not that I don't appreciate the effort, but since it will be quite incomplete, what conclusion will we be able to draw from that ?

Okay ... but how long did it remain #7?

And PE has been in the top 30 for almost 2 weeks already anyways ... which is close enough I'd think considering it's a $70 title.

There is no doubt, the hd dvd version of PE has wooped 'Casino Royale' according to the amazon rankings, which I feel is a good barometer when it comes to disc sales. These types of numbers can only help to influence the studios to release more high-def media. That's my justification anyway.

There were quite a few hd dvd trolls over in my parts when 'casino royale' was taking off. However, this reason shouldn't justify my presence on this forum.

The planet earth ranks says to me, something that may not be so obvious. Amazon doesn't sell that many DVDs in a day. Maybe the top 5 are selling, but the rest, don't appear to be.

Smokin' Aces
A Scanner Darkly
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
The Jerk

I had already preordered The Matrix when it was first put up.

Well talk about last-minute shopping. I placed my order at 11:58 PM EST!!

Nothing like getting some HD-DVDs on crunch time. :cool:


A Scanner Darkly
Children of Men
Planet Earth
Smokin' Aces

I would have ordered more, but since I was pressed on time (literally!) I had to make it quick.

I've been a lurker on these forums for a while now, but with this HD-DVD support event happening, I had to post to show my support for this amazing format :)

Anytime there's a "sequel" to this event, you can damn sure count me in!

if you guys can get any hddvd to spike higher then #9. I'll personally destroy my ps3 on youtube.

Holy Crap! Planet Earth is #5! That is an incredible showing from the HD DVD supporters here, well done.

So MSpeed6, do you have a video camera to film it? :p

you really think a few people in an internet forum can outweigh the whole nation?

Yikes, how's the foot taste? LOL You probably don't want to look here....http://www.hdgamedb.com/amazon/versus.aspx

I ordered 3 more at midnight so my total is 16 now.
Battle of the Bulge
The Fountain
Letters from Iwo Jima

I was going to order Letters and The Fountain on BD but I just said screw it and ordered them on HD DVD.


This really cost me some money today. Today brings my order total to 48 titles that I will be receiving by July, At least it will push me past the 200 mark.

I ordered 3 more at midnight so my total is 16 now.
Battle of the Bulge
The Fountain
Letters from Iwo Jima

I was going to order Letters and The Fountain on BD but I just said screw it and ordered them on HD DVD.


This really cost me some money today. Today brings my order total to 48 titles that I will be receiving by July, At least it will push me past the 200 mark.aaronwt you are the man...WOW 200 titles. I have 35 :o

Holy Crap! Planet Earth is #5! That is an incredible showing from the HD DVD supporters here, well done.

So MSpeed6, do you have a video camera to film it? :p



Yikes, how's the foot taste? LOL You probably don't want to look here....http://www.hdgamedb.com/amazon/versus.aspx

Just ribbing you, but we're all waiting for the PS3 video! :D

The funny thing is he seems to think the whole nation has got on to Blu-ray Disc and only a few internet undeground people are into HD DVD. As if they're both not early adopter markets right now. I was at Target today and saw one person at Blu-ray Disc, while I was the one person looking at HD DVD. And despite their great selection (at least, of new stuff) of Blu-ray Discs at Wal-Mart, I've never seen people looking; mostly they use the shelves to stuff mismatched DVDs on top of their high def counterparts (of both flavors).

Guys, it means nothing in the long run.

On April 14th at 10:30PM, PE HD was 15 and PE BR was 23. And out of the top 14, BR had 10 of the 14. It shows that BR IS on top and this one day won't last for long. But this one day was huge for HD-DVD, I can't deny that. HD-DVD folks can't do this all the time because they will run out of money or their wives will get really mad.

So spending $1000 on a player won't break the bank?

But this one day was huge for HD-DVD, I can't deny that. HD-DVD folks can't do this all the time because they will run out of money or their wives will get really mad.It's just a fun thing to do on the B day of HD DVD...but it also shows a Huge fan base for HD DVD...Which was already dead according to the BD group. This just proves it's alive and doing well. :rolleyes:

I purchased the Planet Earth Series from Amazon.ca (not because of this thread, incidentally), so when I stumbled here, I thought I'd take a look at the Amazon.ca rankings.

Planet Earth HD-DVD is number 3 on Amazon.ca with number 1 being the standard def version of the series. For comparison, the BD version is at number 10.

In any event, am I the only one who's displeased by the result of this thread?

The reason I'm disappointed is that it shows that sales for both formats are extremely slow; the fact that one forum throwing an event like this could make sales figures spike tells me that the volume being moved for all these movies is tiny. This also means that there is no end to this war in sight; and that, regardless of which side you're backing, is disappointing.

Nope I'm happy just knowing that Sony was dead wrong (When are they not?) in declaring Blu-ray the victor already. Samsung is already going neutral, who will be next?

I see what you're saying, but it can't say much for SD-DVD sales at Amazon either if we can spike Planet Earth to number 4. What would be useful is to see the HD-DVD and Blu sales in the context of Amazon's general DVD sales. In any case, the fact that we have spiked the HD-DVD titles over Blu, even if it's only temporary, gives me a nice warm feeling this morning. I feel like I've been able, in a small part, to give the middle finger to BDA and all their claims of winning the war already. Do they think the consumer is a total idiot?! Such arrogance!

Well this is exactly my point; I suspect that Amazon's SD-DVD sales numbers are small compared to those put up by big box retailers (say Wal-Mart and Best Buy). Meanwhile, I also suspect that Amazon has a higher share in the HD market (both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray) since these formats are still in the early adopter phase.

My point is that these numbers get brandied about in threads left right and center, when it's clear that they are near meaningless because it is such low volume. Obviously trying to gauge trends from Amazon's numbers is nearly useless because with such small volumes the error margins are huge (see the Happy Feet thread, for example, where all versions having huge spikes and dips almost daily).

As for proving Sony wrong, I personally couldn't care less. All I want is some resolution to this war so that I can buy the movies I want without worrying that they'll be used as coasters in 5 years.

Guys, it means nothing in the long run.

On April 14th at 10:30PM, PE HD was 15 and PE BR was 23. And out of the top 14, BR had 10 of the 14. It shows that BR IS on top...

It stayed in the top 25 for at least 2 weeks.

That's not answering the question. And Planet Earth has already been in the top 25 for 9 days (and top 100 for almost a month).

Don't think it was just this forum doing everything. The fire started here for sure, but I saw a few other forums yesterday who also had similar topics posted and were referencing this forum. So, other forums did have posters rallying together to make yesterday a big day for HD DVD.

In all seriousness what the success of this efford shows is how small the high-def market is(both formats).

Anyway i'll order:
Smockin Aces
Dirty Dozen
Out of Sight
Feast
tommorow since i have to put some cash on my prepaid CC first. :)

Also Enter The Dragon look absolutely awesome!! For a movie that's over 30 years old!!

But this one day was huge for HD-DVD, I can't deny that. HD-DVD folks can't do this all the time because they will run out of money or their wives will get really mad.

Don't worry, some of us don't have wives or girlfriends to hassle us! :(

The only titles I've ever canceled are when studios delayed release on there titles without giving a new release date such as all the Fox movies...

On a personal comment, I'm glad to see (surprised by it but glad nonetheless) to see an expensive educational box set such as Planet Earth get more attention and better rankings then your recent cartoon and kiddie movies that so many seem to be raving for

WOW!!!!!!! I guess HD DVD is not dead after all. Anyway I just ordered my second Planet Earth (HD DVD) for my little brother...who went format neutral just 3 weeks ago. He has been a BD only fan from the very beginning...since HD DVD players are under $300 and Universal started releasing titles again he couldn't resist anymore. I have been saying all along HD DVD would survive the BD onslaught of misinformation and their huge marketing campaign. To see Planet Earth at a $70 premium at number #5 just blows me totally away. I would have never thought this could happen. HD DVD is as strong as ever. I have also noticed quite a few BD only owners now going format neutral by picking up a HD DVD player…I guess Heroes on HD DVD was too much for them to handle. So all I can say is GOOD NEWS for HD DVD!!!!!! Have Fun! And stay in your own HD DVD forum and show some class…don’t be like MSpeed6 who has become the laughing stock of this forum. :)


I actually had my HD DVD before my blu ray player. I got my HD DVD player in July of last year!! I had picked up my PS3 on launch day!! I'm sorry but $1000 for any kind of player is just a bit too much!! I dont care how good it looks!! I'm glad I have both format's since both of them have there own exclusives and the one's that are out on both I usually go with HD DVD since it has True HD and Blu Ray does not!! Well Except for Aeon Flux that looked a little better than HD I did a test on that one and it did look better. I'll be happy to be getting the Matrix next month and Flags of our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima on HD DVD as well!! Also I'll be happy to get Pirates of the Caribean the same day!! That day I'm going to go broke but ya know what it will be worth it!!
That's my take on this.
Mischa!!

Should we go in that thread and tell them how "really sad" and oh so "very sad" that is ? :D

Upon reflection, let's not even go down to their level, they have way more pimple-faced teenagers than a daycare's got kids.

He He, I m from Europe visiting Japan and just spent 600 yen which is like 6 bucks or so I think reading all of todays postings in this thread.

Good work. I can report that although Blu Ray supposedly has a giant lead in Japan I have only been able to find any Blu ray titles whatsoever in 3 out of about 25 CD/DVD stores I ve visited. They have 96 percent of just about nothing.

I ll make some buys when I get home to helt keeping the figures up next week.

Let's keep strong numbers all month so HD DVD can take back the lead.

Fantastic Guys!! Thanks for everybody purchasing, and giving deals. Thanks for the few over at AVS for getting this thing started, and for the few more that started the domino effect. Eventually something will turn, and BD fanboys will jump all over it, but lets keep it up all month and put HD DVD back at top.

Some good results, for what it's worth, the sales on HD DVD have been trending up for about three weeks and this anniversary buy has puched it up that extra bit.

HD DVD now in number one postition. I realize this wasn't the intent, but it's a nice fringe benefit :)

I've written a bit on this in the latest newsletter on HD NOW which went out today - a summary can be found here: http://www.campaignhd.com/News_and_links.html

Enough people picked up the slack for you yesterday... no shame in making a purchase today. ;)

Looks like you grabbed some great titles too. I've already watched Children of Men twice, and I can't remember the last time I watched a film again so soon. It's definitely a well-made film that rewards repeat viewings.

04-16-07, 05:29 PM
It looks like the sales spike is reversing, but HD DVD is still ahead on the Amazon sales ranking. Unfortunately, this spurt of buying probably means that HD DVD owners are going to be a little low on funds and sales might take a hit for a while. ;)

It was meant as fun and as a symbolic gesture,

Funny thing is, it actually corresponds to a more broad based sales surge for HD DVD during this period and thus may actually be sustained over a longer period.

April 15th is the start of major Toshiba advertising and promotions including a continuation of the Circuit City and other buy a player get free HD DVD disc promotions and the first advertising of the new $399 price point.

HD DVD sales are going to accelerate from this point on, that has been a plan for a long time by Toshiba and Universal, it's just kinda cool that this little celebration may have lifted HD DVD over the top in Amazon stats at the same time HD DVD is surging anyway.

Hope to see this reflected in the more comprehensive Nielson/Videoscan tracking numbers in a week or two.

BTW, The April 8 first alert numbers posted in that thread, showed the best numbers for HD DVD all year, and has Blu-ray with its smallest lead since we have data.

The gap closed to 62% Blu-ray to 38% HD DVD in that data set. The smallest gap all year.

The week of April 3rd data for the online retailer DVD Empire sales also closed to 44.7% to 55.3%, with their smallest gap all year.

based on his wording perhaps he meant any HD-DVD, not HD-DVD's such as Planet Earth which is a box set with multiple discs (4 disc according to Amazon). I don't consider my Star Wars box set a DVD either. I could be wrong, but he should have clarified. I'll see if he answer my PM.

:rolleyes:

It's more difficult to get a $70 box set to #4 on the rankings than it is to get a $20-$25 single disc to the same ranking. It would have been a feat if we'd gotten a single disc title to that spot (like it was when Casino Royale was high in the rankings.) It's even more of a feat that we were able to elevate a multi-disc title with a $70 price tage to a spot higher than CR was ever able to attain. We more than met his criteria - he owes us a video of him destroying his PS3. Period.

Seriously - how would your argument above possibly make any sense? He was very clear in his challenge and it was met. Either he's honorable or he's not. We'll see if he reneges or not.

Well, I'd like to see his clarification as well like I said.

You say it is more difficult to get a $70 box set to reach #4, could be true for some but it really depends on the content. Did another HD-DVD title match that box sets rank to support your claim? If so then it doesn't matter as you have a single disc and there would be no way around it.

:rolleyes: Give me a break. Your argument's not helping you in any way. Logic is not on your side in this case.

You can wait for his PM all you want, but it doesn't change what he said. If he wanted to qualify his challenge in any way, the time to do it was when he put forth the challenge - not after the challenge has been met. It was his idea to say what he said. He should me man enough to stand behind it.

I agree, things should have been clarified before the bet. For those who didn't fully understand they should have asked questions. Personally I hope he just clarifies on the board instead of PM.

Curious did any single HD-DVD (1 disc, not boxed sets) achieve the rank he place his bet on?

This is rather pathetic last time I checked ANY means ANY and they did say any HD DVD. So is not the Planet Earth that went as high as #4 a HD DVD? Yes or No?

04-16-07, 07:20 PM
Why is briankmoney assuming and inserting "any [single] HD-DVD" rather than "any HD-DVD [release]" ?

I think letting MSpeed6 off the hook would be a nice and classy thing to do. Trying weasel techniques to get out of it is sad though--even if others are doing the weaseling.

Eric D.
04-16-07, 07:23 PM
briankmonkey,
Then by your logic, maybe MSpeed6 wasn't referring to HD DVD at all since he spelled it "hddvd". He must have meant something else and we should ask him what it was. Plus everybody knows that all bets are always accompanied by a typed list of rules that has to be overseen by a lawyer for it to be official. That's why every bar always has a lawyer on hand, so all bets made during the night can be admissible in court. I mean, just having it in writing is not enough. And I think everybody is forgetting that the loser of the bet is always allowed every possible chance to back out of it. I mean, it's the law. :rolleyes:

Seriously man, you have some issues if you actually believe any of the dribble you wrote. Jeeze.

Less combative version of my previous (deleted) reply:

You sure seem to love arbitrairly adding qualifiers to his challenge. He never said "an HD DVD" or "a single-disc HD DVD" or anything of the sort. He said "any HD DVD." Any. As in one disc or a hundred. Any. It could have been the two-disc release of Clerks II or it could have been the Sopranos. In this case, it was the documentary Planet Earth. It's one title. When you buy it, you're making a single purchase - you don't buy the discs individually. When it's ranked, it's ranked as a single title, just like every other release.

Your argument holds no water.

I agree.

Man-law: Thou shalt never renege.

But, I for one would be open to renegotiating the terms of the wager to something more productive, like, say a contribution to the ELF Foundation or donating said PS3 to research full time for say a MONTH. As long as it is independently verifiable.
