my friend played a few at his house, some looked amazing, some didn't

ocean's 13 for one, it didn't look AMAZING, sure it was better than dvd but i could still see many poor details.

it was alright, it's way way way way way too long. 2 hours? the first hour was just leading up to the last 30 minues. i stopped watching at the 1 hour mark.

had to leave and it was quite boring. blu ray makes me look at the details more and less about the plot

I told my friend the sides on the Blu-ray discs were round and he was like "I know."

I put the edge on his finger and he was like "Oh what the hell?". I laughed

lol, no

What's the point? The difference isn't noticeable unless your TV isn't shit, which mine is.  caterpie;

so you mean instead of the edges like on a gamecube disc or dvd it's smooth

Also, I'd rather a cheap HD-DVD player.

Or wait.

I'll wait, but I know Bluray is going to win, but in the future I won't be surprised if it's both formats, but mostly Bluray. Hybrid Bluray/HDDVD players

I wouldn't count HD-DVD out yet. The movie companies are constantly flip-flopping, HD-DVD has a higher player install base, and the Chinese government is supporting HD-DVD.

I'm rooting for HD-DVD, but only because if it does win the format war, I'll be able to get a cheap one to attach to my 360.

Unless the Chinese Government somehow makes the Chinese into making HD-DVDs/players it doesn't mean shit. But if their government can take control over their market, yes, that will help HD-DVD out a lot. But of course that doesn't change what movie companies support Bluray and so far, it's leaning towards Bluray.
