Flame On

Alright you Korean bitch. Flame on. One. Two. Three. Four. I declare Flame War.

Definitions of flame on the Web:
Personal verbal attacks on other Internet users, via e-mail, USENET, or mailing lists. Flame wars occur when a series of flames are sent back and forth between two or more people.




I'll admit I was surprised by Paramount's defection, but then I processed the information and realized I wasn't going to buy Transformers anyways. Not to mention both Michael Bay and Spielberg's support for Blu-ray. (Yea yea, they threw money at Bay and he retracted his statement. Big fucking surprise: Michael Bay has no integrity.)

So why is this good? Well it means the HD wars last a little bit longer, and this blog can grow and maybe blossom into something beautiful. Though I think our Flaming approach may have a negative impact on Albert's and my relationship. I'm probably going to take things personally and I don't know how well I can leave my emotions out of this. Chances are, I'll end up hating Albert like I hate Brett Ratner.

I've always maintained HD DVD can never claim a complete victory over the HD format wars. Honestly the best they can hope for is a stale mate where combo players that can play both formats become affordable at which point, the format with more storage will become favored and HD DVDs will be phased out. Sony currently owns the largest film library of any major film studio with major franchises like Spiderman, the entire Bond franchise, and RESIDENT EVIL. (And lets not forget they're making the Metal Gear Solid movie) That fact alone will ensure class A content for Blu-ray. Lets also not forget the exclusive support from 20th Century Fox and Disney. So while HD DVD just ensured that the most recent Shrek that people have already forgot existed will be exclusive, Blu-ray still has exclusive rights to all past and current Pixar movies as well as generation defining Disney movies like the Lion King.(oh and Pirates, I think some people liked Pirates) Honestly, it's like comparing Bape hoodies to some of the shit I have from when I used to shop at Ross.

That's all for now, I'll set flame on HD gaming later, and hopefully institute a new feature where we flame the Wii in every post! (maybe not every post, that'd just be so last-generation, like the Wii)
