MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 WWE has been taping new show opens and such in HD in preparation for the switchover. I believe Smackdown will go HD on the CW starting in January (A MONTH AWAY~!), and Raw hopefully a few months later. USA and Sci-Fi in HD should be launching at any time. credit:F4W Newsletter If someone did their homework they'd know that both USA HD and SciFi HD are up and running now and have been for about 2 months. Spike HD is also up and running as well... WILL TNA BEAT WWF TO THE HD PUNCH?...STAY TUNED! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 - The Big Show was backstage at the Survivor Series PPV in Miami. Show is in training to be a boxer, even though his first fight has yet to be set. He was said to be in better shape than he was in WWE. Credit: WO/Gerweck The Hell? Isn't boxing boring enough? I would watch Big Show box someone. But would you pay for it? Yes, just to see someone knocked out with the "skillet-like hands" of show Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are plenty of people in North America who dont care about HD but they're all 90 years old, blind and prefer to listen to Paul Harvey for the rest of the story before they go outside and yell at the kids playing in their yard and giving them a "back in my day.." speech.

luke-o 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 HD is overated. Just like Blu-ray. Are some things better in HD? Possibly. Things like Transformers or movies with big expolosions might warrent a HD jizz fest. But wrestling? Not really. Do we really need to watch The Office or 50 First Dates in HD? What would be the point of having wrestling in HD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mecca 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 Dave Meltzer is reporting that WWE is trying to line up some huge surprises for the RAW 15th anniversary special next month. WWE has contacted former WWE Champion and Hollywood star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson for an appearance. Johnson has done taped segments but has not appeared live in many years. While he has made an effort to distance himself from pro wrestling, the feeling within WWE is that Johnson has solidified himself as a legitimate actor and is beyond the point where appearing on a special WWE show would hurt his image. The 3-hour special will air Monday night December 12th. The show will start 1 hour earlier, at 8PM eastern. Expect WWE to stack the show with a lot of star power and PPV caliber matches. The best part of this report.....is I don't think December 12th is a Monday.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's usually a higher fee for not a lot of return. I have an HD tv that I play my video games on, but honestly there's not enough of a difference for me to pay an extra fee each month to watch television shows in HD.

Mad Scientist 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 I pay 15 bucks extra for HD. That's two boxes and about 25 channels. To me, anyway, that's no big deal. That's too much for what I'd get. I don't get the movie tiers (HBO, STARZ,etc.), and I could care less about seeing most of the TV I watch in HD. For my money and entertainment, it's worth more to save that up and get a new video game every couple of months. It's not that I'm against HD, I just don't care enough about regular TV shows to pay the extra per month. Now, it's really sweet to play my video games and watch my DVD movies in HD...

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 Well that is certainly understandable, I'm not going to be like Marvin and try to convince everyone that they're worthless loser assholes if they don't have HD (which is funny, coming from him). Personally, I think you're not getting your money's worth if you have an HDTV and you're not fully utilizing it, but again that's just MY opinion! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haVoc 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2007 The #1 reason to go HD is sports. It's hard for me to watch football or the YES Network w/out it being in HD now. I'm spoiled and can't even imagine going back. Also, I have Time Warner cable and I only pay a few bucks extra a month for my HD service. Of course, Time Warner doesn't have as many channels in HD as Dish. I don't have SCI or USA in HD yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
