Tell that to the executives. Hardly anyone wants to go ahead with HD-DVD. And why should they? DVD is their biggest money-maker.
Blu-Ray on the other hand...

HD-DVD is in no way coming out next year. If it does, it will only be a few select releases, and will probably end up like laserdisc.
Why?
Well, the reason DVD ended up being so big is that it offered so much more over VHS than LD did. Higher quality movies, chapter skipping tons of extra features, etc.
The average consumer will see no reason to upgrade, and HD-DVD will exist only for a while as a film collector's item.

Sorry if this has been discussed already but what options are there for people who’s DVD players don’t play DVD-R’s? I would love to by TR47’s set, but I don’t care much for watching it on my computer the whole time. Anyone doing a VCD set? I know it will be lesser quality, but they will be comparable to VHS and will not degrade over time.
Thanks.

You are so going on my hate list . Seriously, I loved T2, it's one of the best sequels made and a very intelligent and thought out sci-fi movie.

Not really true. Jurassic Park and T2 had some of the greatest CG work ever done; even today it's hard to top them. The only difference was with these is that it wasn't so much the systems they had were state of the art, it's that the artists took their time to slowly craft the work, unlike sticking it in there (which is still done today).

I used to believe Return of the Jedi was best as a little kid but I grew up unlike many.
I think that happened to everyone. ROTJ used to be my favorite because of all the action. I thought ESB was long and boring and used to fast forward through all the Yoda scenes, except for the X-Wing scene. Man, I don't know what was wrong with me!

I doubt Joe_H and Jimbo are the same. Joe seems to have a good grasp on the English language. He can form sentences, opinions, etc.
How is that trolling? A post was made suggesting that Joe_H and Jimbo are one and the same. I said no and gave evidence to back it up. No need for a long drawn out discussion, because frankly, I don't care for these arguments either and have thus far resisted ot get into this due to it's idoicy.

I have the THX fullscreens but they suck big time since I can't see even half the image.

an executive producer who's not affraid to say "NO George".
I'm sure McCallum says it all the time... he's the one controlling the strings.
Anyone notice that Star Wars only went downhill when good ol' Rick got involved? He's controlling Lucas' mind, kind of like the King in Two Towers.

EDIT: You know, as long as he releases the originals, it could be the Kathy Bates hot tub scene from About Schmidt on the cover for all I care.

How about if you had a projection system capable of showing 35mm reels? Would it be worth it to view the release prints on those?
