i guess he ran out of the cash Paramount paid him.

so do they insert money into Micheal Bay and he makes noise/movie?

 

they handed him chash to shutup about switching to HD-DVD. They tried to do the same with Speilburg luckily Speilburg refused.

Er... I don't remember Spielburg ever saying anything about HD DVD. Considering he is co-owner of Dreamworks and helped make the decision for them to go HD DVD exclusive it would be kind of odd for him to criticize it. Of course, once again I reiterate that neither format is even close to relevant in the movie market.

It's true. Twice (1st time, 2nd time) Universal has shown HD DVD cover art of Spielberg movies like Jurassic Park, and both times Spielberg came out and said that these movies were not coming to HD DVD any time soon, and Universal was forced to make a retraction. Also, Spielberg movies were specifically excluded from the Paramount/Dreamworks exclusivity clause.

In contrast, Close Encounters of the Third Kind will be the first Spielberg film released in HD, exclusively on Blu-Ray, by Fox Pictures.
