As in expanding Blu-ray support in all their stores.
Microsoft can buy as much Hd.dvd time exclusives as they want, it´s obviously that retail and rental and the end users prefers blu-ray and having this recent announcement of hastings entertainment and target expanding their blu-ray support is one more evidence of that.
On a sidenote we´re going to pick up pirates of the c.. today on blu-ray, not that we havent seen them, we have, both on cinema and dvd, but they are excellent and fun movies and more then good enough to have at home and since the image and sound quality is excellent on the blu-ray version that´s what we´re picking up.

Media creation.realistic looking waves
And all the hard work that goes into making them.
In todays world alot of people just take all the great and truly magic things we see in tv commercials, movies, tv series like hero and battlestar galactica, 3d stills, art and ad´s for granted, kids that´s 10 years thinks that great looking games like motorstorm and dirt, oblivion, halo 3, call of duty 4, metal gear solid 4 and so forth look´s ok, but nothing more.
It doesnt matter to them how great it´s looking as long as it doesnt look like real life it´s just ok, and of course none of them, nor their parents appriciate the man hours and the blood and sweat that goes into making these games and movies, to them it´s just a computer doing it, but that´s of course not the truth, the tiniest effect takes time and knowledge and hence this post.
Head on over to sony pictures surf´s up and read up on all the work they had to put in to enable you, the audience to enjoy surf´s up waves, and i kid you not, it´s a hell of alot of work involved.

so what´s been the best cinema experience so far
Well, so far into 2007, the best cinema experience so far has easily been die hard 4.0, such a great movie and no that´s not just my male reptile brain speaking up, my girlfriend felt the exact same thing, great movie and a very pleasant surprise since that wasnt what we had expected when watching it earlier this year on the big screen.
It´s a given the day it hits blu-ray, that´s for sure and by far the best die hard movie.
Runner ups so far into the year has to be the third pirates movie with sparrow and crew, great entertainment but not close to taking first place, but it´s also a fun experience and worthy third installment on that franchise and we simply put enjoyed that one alot aswell.
After those two movies, well im not sure so i´ll have to think about that but we hit the cinemas quite often and tend to watch the films we realy want to in the cinema, the ones we miss get´s a hdtv treatment and we usualy purchase em instead of rent or download, hey, it´s still cheaper then going two or four persons to the cinema for some big screen action so i think buying movies are pretty inexpensive, but we do restrict ourselves to movies that we know are good.
Not that i wouldnt mind them being even cheaper and same goes for the cinema.
a well, nr.uno so far into 2007 is die hard 4.0 but there´s been alot of realy good movies both on the cinema, dvd (blood diamond) and blu-ray (casino royale was by far the best bond and flags of our fathers were a sad but intruiging war movie)

spiderman 3.the movie, not the game
We caught it on the cinema last week with a female friend of ours but i have to say that we were alittle disapointed all three.
Sure it was wellmade, the story were alot more adult(which is usualy a good thing in our book), the fx was on target, catchy script and a cast that worked as is.
But for some reason the movie wasnt what we have come to expect seeing the first two spiderman films, i dont know, i think the movie missed it´s own legacy or something, But who cares,it´s a decent, wellmade movie that´s worth to see on dvd slash blue-ray, but it´s realy not worth it seeing it on the big screen.
Atleast in our humble opinion :)
