So no, anyone with a TV smaller than probably 40" won't be able to tell the difference.
I personally don't care if we don't get a Transformers 2 and I care even less if Bay doesn't direct it. The first one, while being an ok movie, wasn't all that great imo. Sure, it had great CG, but the rest was kind of lame. For the first half of the movie, the Autobots were pretty dumb. Seriously, the kid tells them to hide so they all transform into cars in his backyard. How stupid is that? It wasn't really until the second half of the movie that it actually picked up and got good.
Anyway, the more time that goes by with two formats, the more people are going to stop caring and just wait for the next best thing. I'm honestly hoping that they both do fail at this point. Maybe this time the industry will learn that if you have two formats competing that are completely incompatible with each other that the format is doomed to failure. I guess we'll just have to wait until this Christmas to see what happens.
