Why should anyone bother? You will just respond with some erroneous stats that fit your agenda! :lol:
As mentioned before, everything I've ever posted has been 100% true, and verifiable. If anyone thinks they're erroneous, they're welcome to show otherwise :)
Also, what agenda? I've posted quite a bit here, but I don't think I've ever actually mentioned my opinions on the movies, positive or negative. Just the facts, here. :twisted:

Average price used to be around ¥1,800 (about $19 in today's dollar)
It cost me near the equivalent of $14 USD each for theatre tickets summer 2006. I do not remember what it was in yen, I do not think is has gone up all that drastically. Probably just the exchange rate playing Mary Hobb.

surprising QoS did much of anything in JP considering QoS is available on the internet since November.

No reason to buy it,especially since both versions of the DVD will be a ripoff and the movie can be downloaded a lot of places.

You'll probably find Bond fans will buy it.
And then there will be people who collect movies...the general public.
We may even see it become a good seller. It's a Bond film, there will always be an audience, whether you guys approve of the lead actor or not.
This has been proven with both CR and QOS.

I'm a fan of the Bond films. I am NOT, however a sheep who feels they need to buy the QOS DVD. It's $20-30 I could spend on other things :?

Doesn't mean it's wrong that people will buy the QOS dvd either.
It is there choice on what they spend there money on.
Just because this site is opposed to Daniel Craig as James Bond, doesn't mean that someone who buys a copy of QOS is wrong or a sheep, who bows down to Eon.
Think what you like, I'm over arguing with people like you over trivial crap.

I don't feel like I have a gun to my head as far as buying a copy of QOS goes.I see no problem with downloading it off the net.There,I said it. It's money that *won't* go to EON, and that's a good thing :twisted:

$30 is hardly a crazy amount of money.
Though as a fan I will spend whatever I like within reason on James Bond merchandise.

Seriously doubt the anti-Craigs here will buy the QOS DVD.The pro-Craigs will,and that's fine. They're not putting a gun to my head about buying it.That's the difference :?

The pro-Craigs (save for one) don't feel it's their duty to get every Bond fan to buy it, or else they're a bad Bond fan. :roll:
