Hopfully the mods won't have a problem with this outside the Adult forum, but since it is HD DVD related, just though everyone would like to know the industry has announced the release of its first HD DVD.

You can click below for more info, but obviously DON'T if you're offended by adult material!

Camp Cuddly Pines Powertool Massacre

Sweet you'll get to see the pimples on the chicks asses in crystal clarity.

and surgery marks...

I can't believe they want 49.99 for it!

Anyway, They announced an adult title in Japan a few months back but I don;t know if it was ever released. It's titled "Slave Room".

it figures. I already this on DVD.

wow $50? That's like Best Buy pricing. And yea I have this too on DVD but for $50 no way in hell I'd purchase it anyway I guess.

Huh, I had sold off all my adult stuff a couple years ago, but I was considering getting this on DVD the other day - looked interesting - combination of horror/slasher and porn. May buy it out of curiosity, because the price is not attractive at all. What do you guys that own it think of the movie?

There is no reason to watch porn in hi-def.

I think you'll find a lot of disagreement with that.

Are you joking? Why the hell not?

I'm still waiting for the 25 hour cumshot compilation on one disk.

Man, I hope we get this to review.

If you do, I wonder if it will be in the adult reviews section or the HD DVD reviews section. I could see where Geoff would want it in adult to segregate that content from "regular" content the way it is now with DVDs, but a case could be made that it should be in HD DVD, since it may appeal to HD DVD owners.

If I had to hazard a guess, I would assume it would be in the adult review section and we would post on this board that the review was available. But I agree that it would be of interest to HD DVD owners, even if they aren't remotely interested in the movie itself. The common perception seems to be that HD porn will reveal so many of the star's flaws that they won't seem as attractive (not necessarily something I agree with, but I see a variation on that comment a lot). I can't wait to find out exactly how it looks.

The same thing was said about DVD, of course.

All this really means is that the adult production houses are going to have to start hiring better-looking girls, something I support wholeheartedly.

I've been waiting for an announcement like this just to get a read on which format might win the war. Of course this is only one title... but if more porn companies jump on the bandwagon it could help clear the water. Then I can finally jump in and buy a player. We all know that porn was one of the biggest (the?) forces behind the rise of VHS. Could the same thing happen with HD on disc? If the majority leans one way or the other? Would be nice.

I think it's quite telling that they have chosen HD DVD first.

Good Move!

I've heard (can't confirm it) that none of the people handling Blu-ray replication will do a movie for adult, so they turned to HD DVD out of necessity, more that "choosing" which format was "best".

BTW, several other studios are currently working on HD DVD releases, including Digital Playground, which plans to release "Pirates" and "Island Fever 4" on HD DVD shortly (probably 1st quarter 2007).

Somebody better tell Vivid. They are doing Blu-ray first (sounds like possibly both at some point).

One thing I've learned about porn is that if a girl is willing to take off her clothes and do dirty things in front of a camera, somebody will film it, release it, and somebody else will buy it. The idea that HD will force studios to hire better looking girls is a fallacy, I'm sad to say.

Yes, Vivid has made this statement. No, they haven't actually started PRODUCING anything yet. Just so you know...

$50? Not my thing anyway, but wow!

$50 . . . bring on the Asian porn and I am there.

You know, everyone is saying $50 is real high, but it appears to be a 4 disc set - I assume only the first disc - feature - is in HD, but that is still a lot of content. Plus the regular DVD set is pretty high, upwards of $30 and it is only a 3 disc set. I am not defending the price, but it does not seem unreasonable. It is only $20 more than the single disc Firewall release.

$50 when I can go to usenet and download all the pr0n I want for free?
