Are these original press kits available to view online? Just wondering from a design standpoint.

Sorry, Peter, but that's utter tosh. Blu-ray is doing very well, and we will definitely see The Avengers on the format. Just because new technologies are being developed doesn't mean that the public will adopt them. Remember CD-V? Video-CD? Digital VHS? DCC? SACD? DVD-Audio? All were meant to supplant the then current format and capture the public imagination and did neither.Peter Motte wrote:My idea too.
BTW: in 2010 both Panasonic and Sony will present a new technology, meant to replace BluRay. Both companies will present their OWN technology. So: two different systems, which won't be interchangeable.
THe systems would be on the market in 2011.
All that means that BluRay is already dead.
I think it even means that dvd will survive BluRay.
That means that we'll probably never see the Avengers on BluRay.
But it also means we wouldn't need it, because DVD would go on, and - if it is true what I have been reading in some of the posts here on the forum - they will also be available on line.

I don't think the mnakers of players feel that - that's why they made BluRay able to play "old" standard DVDs (backwards compatibility) - it's different companies to those who make the sell-through disks, usually.Allard wrote:Frankymole wrote:Whatever system comes next will have to be backwards-compatible with DVD, people are getting fed up having to re-buy everything 3 or 4 times (at least BluRay players can play DVDs!)...
I think that having to keep buying is the idea behind it.
That's great to see. But this is a UK release is it not? I thought the first Avenger Blurays were going to be from France? Not that I am complaining.....Dandy Forsdyke wrote:You can now pre-order The Avengers fourth season on Blu-ray from Amazon.
