You can see more skin on her shoulders so it definutly is not just a brown thing over the rated packaging.

No my life still sucks. My girl left me. She gave me a bunch of crap about me not listening to her enough or something I don't know I wasn't really paying attention. She never put out. Not once. Why are women like that? What is the meaning of life? Is death the end? Why am I posting my problems on the internet? Why don't I stut up? Nobody knows.

Duke I am going to be frank. Your complaints about the movie are just stupid. You clearly do not understand the Potter universe.

Riddick was a cooler character as an R rated flick.

Actually turns out the disc will be double sided. That should add enough room.

That seems strange then that D-VHS are encoded in 1080i and use 3x the bit rate as SD-DVD. Shouldn't they use 6x if DVDs are encoded 480i. I was in belief that DVDs are native 480p and a progressive scan reads all the pixals on the disc while an interlaced scan reads only half. If Blu-Ray does adopt a new codec then it will definutly be superior to HD-DVD.

My guess both formats will go for 1080p. Current DVDs are technically 480p encoded and are downconverted to lower resolutions. Since Blu-Ray has a maximum capacity of 54 gigabits I am sure there is more then enough room for 1080p. True if Blu-Ray uses MPEG-4 it will definutly be far superior to HD-DVD. But I personally doubt they will do so. Sony has said that MPEG-2 is the way to go. Currently I am fimly with HD-DVD.

Saw it. Dissipointed. I am a fan of Pitch Black this movie is very very different. Its probably as different as a sequal can get. Different can be good but here it just falls flat. Its confusing and sometimes boring. Riddick just isn't as cool anymore. So few creatures. Crappy villians. A disjoited story. I will pass this up on DVD and stick to the old Pitch Black.

Yeah but Blu-Ray sucks. HD-DVD has superior preformance since with VC-9 compression a 30 gigabit HD-DVD holds more information then a 54 gigabit Blu-Ray. While rumors of a better a better codec pursist all official statements suggest Blu-Ray will still use MPEG-2. In this way Sony is destroying Blu-Rays only advantage. Studios will most likly go for HD-DVD. HD-DVD is both cheaper and superior to Blu-Ray. Hell even the HD-DVD name is an advantage. The name Blu-Ray is oviously a reference to the formats blue lasers. Most people don't know the difference between red and blue lasers. People know what HD is and know what DVD is so something called HD-DVD will be automattically recognizable. Warner, Fox, Universal, Artisan, and Disney have all shown more intrest in HD-DVD then Blu-Ray.

Click here for the sexy cover art to The Girl Next Door
Personally I find the unrated cover art to be such a teaser.

Its pretty much the only thing I am against Bush on. While I love the way he is handling taxes and the war the Patriot Act is based on a faulty belief that protection much come at the expense of cival liberties. So yeah I hate all unconstitutional acts. More on the list

HD-DVD players will go down fast. Even so I doubt they will launch too expensive. My guess is they will launch less then $400. There will also be so few titles availble. Some clue at what will be availble. Peter Jackson has stated that he plans on creating HD-DVD versions of the Lord of the Rings trilogy after he is finished with King Kong. Warner has stated that they are creating high definition versions of the Matrix films. Since we already have an HD disc version and D-VHS of Terminator 2 it will probably be one of the first on true HD-DVD as well. Id rather have the first movie myself. SD-DVD was finalized in late 1995 and released in mid 1997. Since HD-DVD was finalized last week late 2005 seems like a good probablility.
