But that's okay; the movies seem pretty good. Men in Black was a lot of fun back in the day. Be Kind Rewind Fool's Gold Men in Black So I Married an Axe Murderer An interesting piece of trivia comes from one of Matthew McConaughey's quotes in Fool's Gold. He said he learned to fly a plane "from PlayStation." Pretty cool Matt. We learned how to shoot aliens, drive cars, rob banks, kill goblins, make love to wenches, and destroy massive mechanical beasts. You're not the only one who learned something.

Let's see, there's Bollywood romance, a little bit of Irish drama, and an Ice Cube comedy.If Bollywood romance is not your thing, then you can watch an equally sappy and camp story in P.S. I Love You. Here's the rest of this week's flicks: First Sunday Helvetica Motley Crue: Carnival of Sins P.S. I Love You Saawariya Shall We Dance?

| | New Blu-ray tech supports enhanced iPhone integration, PS3 compatibility possible | | 2008-04-10 18:56:19 | | A company called Netblender is working on new technology that will allow enhanced communication between Blu-ray players and Apple handheld devices such as the iPhone. Dubbed BD Touch, this new tech will turn an iPhone into a remote control for Blu-ray players. More interestingly, it will allow the device to interact directly with BD movies by: displaying extra movie info on the iPhone, maintain a database of your movie collection, and obtain digital copies of movies on a Blu-ray disc. This last feature sounds quite similar to Sony's very own portable copy. This makes us wonder if the new tech will be integrated into the PS3 or if it will only hit other Blu-ray players. A formal announcement regarding the new tech will be made tomorrow. We'll know soon enough then.[Via Gizmodo]

| | New $400-$500 Sony Blu-Ray Players | | 2008-04-04 23:55:49 | | Two new Blu-ray record players with BD-Live functions, the BDP-S350 & BDP-S550 will appear following the recent failure of Toshiba to win the US market with the HD DVD format, & have, since 2006 proposed similar functions of Internet network capability. The prices from Sony will be $400 (BDP-S350 in summer) & $500 (BDP-S550 after next fall) for each model. Both players support the BonusView (Picture-in-Picture) feature found on newer Blu-ray movie discs, BD-Live ready with an Ethernet port used for firmware updates, & access to Internet-based interactive content features. The main difference of the BDP-S550 is that it comes with a 1GB storage device (no wonder it looks bigger too).

| | More Blu-ray 360 Rumors | | 2008-04-02 11:06:45 | | It’s hard to do internet news today. Everyone’s pulling pranks all over the internet. Whether it’s the Postal cat silencer, the Diablo Loot Pinata or this wonderful product which begs someone to really create it for Wiiware, there’s a whole lot of jokes out there ready to trip up the writer who takes things a little too seriously. One rumor has surfaced that begs consumption with that perennial grain of salt, not because it’s humorous, but because we’ve heard it denied rather strongly thus far. After the death of HD-DVD many assumed that Microsoft would be doing everything they could to get Blu-ray addons for the Xbox 360. Following some reports that talks had begun, MS representatives came out and put a kaibosh on those rumors, stating that the company was going to be focusing in on downloadable media through the Xbox Live Marketplace. It seems that according to industry sources Lite-On is developing Blu-ray drives for the Xbox 360. The report on the website is slightly co | | By: Online Games | | |

But we forgot he's too busy hunting down a diamond encrusted skull in the Middle East. Anyway, so why are the chipmunks and JT featured today? That's because both recording artists are getting Blu-ray releases this week. 10.5: Apocalypse Alvin and the Chipmunks Artie Lange's Beer League Blackbeard Category 7: The End of the World Coyote Ugly: The Double-Shot Edition Hidalgo Justin Timberlake: FutureSex/LoveShow Live from Madison Square Garden The Curse of King Tut's Tomb Unbreakable What's the best Blu-ray release this week? Probably, in this blogger's opinion, Hidalgo. But that's just because he's a huge Omar Sharif fan. Unbreakable comes in second.

| | Blu-ray Devices Price Increased | | 2008-03-24 23:51:29 | | Manufacturers know that only Blu-Ray DVDs are the rage at the moment, since the media blitz of HD-DVD’s failure to capture the Hollywood motion picture market. What happens now? Blu-ray player prices have all been increased by about $100. Everything that was $300 now cost $400 because the manufacturers now that there is no other choice available & that consumers will have to buy only Blu-ray DVDs & players to watch high definition Hollywood movies.There is still hope for the consumer to receive the best deal when it comes to Blu-ray players & it is in the form of Sony Playstation 3. It has a Blu-ray player & plays fantastic console video games to boot. Can your new $500 Blu-ray player do the same? I doubt it. The current price is about $399 for a Sony Playstation 3, only $25 more than the cheapest Blu-ray player. It’s an easy choice. | | By: movie special | | |

Rothschild's complaint lists over 30 companies, including Sony, Samsung, Toshiba and Nokia.

It seems at the beginning, the failure of the company of Warner Bros, from the output of its product & its size to choose HD-DVD could finally scatter all doubts. However, some experts thus far do not hurry apropos of the outcome of the HD format war. Indeed there is still such a factor, which sometimes is ignored: it’s China with its immense market. In the specialist’s opinion, it is worthwhile only for the company of Toshiba to be fastened on this market, as the future of the HD DVD format becomes directed toward the China market. Toshiba already accomplishes, &, it is worthwhile to note, taken steps that are substantiated & goal-directed.

Without competition from HD DVD, Blu-ray players from Samsung, Sony, Sharp and Panasonic have actually gone up: to their highest 2008 prices yet, according to TG Daily. It appears that the PS3 is still the best value for those looking for a Blu-ray player. Not only is it one of the cheapest (at $400), it also can play upcoming BD Profile movies, which utilize an internet connection. Current standalone players are unable to use this feature and will be incompatible with many features in upcoming Blu-ray releases.TG Daily has some keen words of advice: "Ironically, although Blu-ray has been declared the winner, it is right now about the worst time to invest in a standalone Blu-ray player, because of the high prices and looming obsolescence.

In an interview with the Financial Times, Sony Electronics US president Stan Glasgow proclaimed, "Sony is in talks with console rival Microsoft about offering a Blu-ray drive for the Xbox 360." While Microsoft has since denied any HD discussions are happening with Sony, we remember that a few MS execs let it slip that this could be an option if Blu-ray won the "war," which it did. One thing to keep in mind Xbox fanboys, this decision stems from wanting to offer multiple avenues to HD content to Xbox 360 users and doesn't mean we'll see that new SKU that slaps Master Chief's next outing on a BD disc.

The Blu-Ray Disc Association European Promotions Committee has announced that Blu-ray disc movie sales have now sold more than two million units throughout Europe.So far this year, Blu-ray holds a 79 percent share of all high-def movies sold across Europe. "DVD-Video was first introduced into Western Europe in 1997, and the following year some 230,000 DVD players were installed and 2 million discs were sold through," the association said. "In comparison, Blu-ray Disc made its first tentative launch in Western Europe in 2006, and the following year some 3.2 million PlayStation 3 consoles and 34,000 standalone players were installed, while 2.3 million Blu-ray discs sold through." That's a lot of fancy talk for: "Blu-ray is kicking ass and taking names." The BDA | | By: Online Games | | |

But unlike a punch drunk boxer giving it one last shot at the win, it appears that the HD DVD camp is slowly coming to grips with its grim future.The camp responded to earlier reports that Netflix would only carry Blu-ray titles as well as Best Buy recommending Blu-ray as the HD standard. "We have long held the belief that HD DVD is the best format for consumers based on quality and value, and with more than 1 million HD DVD players on the market, it's unfortunate to see Netflix make the decision to only stock Blu-ray titles going forward," the statement read. "While the Best Buy announcement says they will recommend Blu-ray, at least they will continue to carry HD DVD and offer consumers a choice at retail."Sure, they're not exactly admitting defeat yet, but it's almost sad to see the HD DVD camp attem | | By: Online Games | | |

Universal soll nun in Zukunft nicht ausschließlich auf die HD-DVD setzen. Bislang hatte sich das Hollywoodstudio ausschließlich auf HD-DVD konzentriert. Es ist allerdings noch nicht klar, wann die ersten Blu Ray Filme von Universal auf den Markt kommen werden. | | By: Computer Hardware Grundlagen | | |

| | Warner sposa Blu-Ray. Il formato Sony guadagna ancora punti | | 2008-01-09 01:39:32 | |
La guerra fra nuovi formati dello standard DVD, quella che vede in campo Blu-Ray e HD DVD, vede segnare un altro punto a favore del primo formato, quello targato Sony. La Warner ha infatti scelto il Blu-Ray, contribuendo ad allargare la fetta di mercato (pari al 70%) che lo standard Sony-Apple si è già assicurata, anche grazie al recente accordo con Blockbuster.
A lasciare al palo l'HD-DVD (oramai ritenuto il formato qualitativamente meno performante), oltre alla Warner hanno già pensato anche Fox, Disney, Columbia e MGM. | | By: Binario Loco | | |

| | Sony BDU-X10S BD-ROM, the $200 Blu-ray optical drive | | 2008-01-07 09:37:00 | | Since Blu-ray seems to be winning the High Definition Disc format war, it's only natural that they release Blu-ray products that are cheaper. Well, Sony has just announced that the Sony BDU-X10S internal Blu-ray ROM drive will cost around $200.The Sony BDU-X10S internal Blu-ray optical drive will allow you to watch High definition Blu-ray discs right on your PC. Serial ATA is the interface on the Sony BDU-X10S and it has a 5.25 inch form factor. There's an included Cyberlink PowerDVD BD Edition software with every purchase of the Sony BDU-X10S so you can watch Blu-ray disc movies on your PC. However, even though you already have the Sony BDU-X10S, it doesn't mean you can instantly play Blu-ray discs on your standard PC, you need an HD Computer display that is connected to your PC using HDMI cable.

| | Warner Bros. drops HD DVD in favor of Blu-ray Disc | | 2008-01-06 02:07:00 | | The decision by Warner Bros. to drop HD DVD in favor of Blu-ray Disc for high-definition movies has set the electronics industry abuzz. Announced on the eve of the Consumer Electronics Show, the move put a single question in the minds of thousands of industry-insiders heading to the show in Las Vegas: Could the high-definition format wars be over? Since both formats launched they have been locked in a battle that pitted some of the industry's biggest consumer electronics companies against each other. Backing Blu-ray Disc has been Sony, Panasonic and Samsung, while HD DVD's main supporters have been Toshiba, Microsoft and Intel. The battle also divided Hollywood and left consumers with a difficult choice: their favorite movies were likely split between the two formats and there was a risk the player they bought would become irrelevant. As a result consumers kept away from the formats and sales have been sluggish. Warner's decision will give Blu-ray Disc an advantage in terms of content. With the move, five of the big seven Hollywood studios now back Blu-ray Disc with only two, Paramount and Universal, backing HD DVD. The Warner announcement certainly put the HD DVD Promotion Group's CES plans in disarray. Within hours of the announcement, the group cancelled its scheduled Sunday-evening news conference and subsequent media interviews at CES. "They're definitely regrouping and considering their options at the moment, this could be extremely important," said Tom Coughlin, a storage analyst at Coughlin Associates. "This could be the beginning of a major pivotal turning point in the high-def format war, which if we could define the format which is going to win would be extremely important for the industry because this would free up consumers to start making decisions on the purchase of their systems."Read More-Via[CW] | | By: Beta18>>Technology HotSpot | | |
| | Blu-ray and HD DVD war coming to an end? | | 2008-01-05 08:37:00 | | Well, looks like the format wars will soon come to an end with another major studio backing Blu-ray--Warner Bros. Entertainment. While Warner Bros. was initially reluctant to take sides on the format wars, the company releasing movies in both formats, it has announced just this Friday that it will be releasing their future movie releases only in Blu-ray. Things are looking grim for HD DVD. Analysts believe that the format wars will be decided by which studios release the most movies in which format. So what will be the final stake that would seal HD DVD's coffin? The price of Blu-ray players coming in at below $200 of course. | | By: Gadget Reviews and How-Tos | | |

| | Hitachi working on 100GB Blu-ray discs | | 2007-10-10 21:13:59 | | Just when you thought 50GB of data storage was enough, Hitachi has to waltz in and offer double that amount with a new prototype four layer Blu-ray disc.Normally, you'd need a different optical head to read from a disc of this type, but that doesn't seem to be the case with this one. That is, if need be, Hitachi says it will play in regular Blu-ray drives that exist now (which includes our lovely PS3).Well, there is a catch. All Blu-ray players would have to have their optical heads tweaked a little bit, but it's something that can be worked out in a firmware update. No word on a release for the discs, but as soon as they finish stabilizing the signal quality, we'll hear an announcement of some kind.Source: PS3 Fanboy Online Games Blu-ray Hitachi PS3 firmware Disc | | By: Online Games | | |
