And there’s *NO WAY* he could be talking crap there. Uh uh. Microsoft never lies about things like this.

Geezus…

Hey Peter,

John never said Bale dropped the ball. All I said was that he’s too skinny for Batman. I never said it was is fault, or the studios fault… I never suggest anyone was to “blame”… I just said he’s too skinny.

I would like to address John Campea’s comments on Bale not putting on enough weight for THE DARK KNIGHT. Bale did not drop the ball. Pick up the latest issue of Wizard magazine. There is a great article on THE DARK KNIGHT in there; it explains why Bale has lost a little weight for this role: Lets just say it has to do with speed.

Just because Jordi Ribas said something doesn’t make it true. I’m not saying what Bay said is true either, but PR people lie to cover their company’s ass.

I don’t have a blu ray player…hoping that will change after xmas but I do have an HD DVD player and holy shit the picture really is amazing. Some films just blow your mind……
Like say what you will about King Kong (i like it) the hd dvd looks fucking beautiful. the picture is incredible. I also have The Road Warrior and I am seeing things i never noticed before…just little things like flies buzzing around his head etc etc but the film looks brand new. I love the new formats.

I certainly have no personal beef with blu ray just because I have hd dvd though. Some people take this whole format war so personally its insane.

Sounds a lot like the whole issue of Warner refusing to cast female leads. We all know how that story was handled by the internet! ;)

It will be interesting to see which side prevails. I’m format neutral so I don’t have a vested interest in seeing one side win over the other. I went originally with HD DVD because the hardware was cheaper and the player had analogue outputs which saved me from upgrading to a HDMI capable receiver.

Then again I choose Betamax at one time too….
