What I would like to see from Warner's move, to push blu-ray to mainstream.

What does the last paragraph have to do with features specific to HD films? That was what that sentence you quoted in the OP meant. And if an upcoming feature was simple and appealing as the Wiimote, it would be a gimmick that worked.

The point was just a few months ago I would be with the 75% (in OP article) who didn't care about Blu-ray HD. Sometimes it just takes time for something to catch on. The Wii remote isn't all that new in itself as I have used a TRACKIR on the PC (just in the opposide direction), works great for flight sims. It's just now I see a lot of commericals on TV which speaks of a movie on DVD and Blu-ray so who knows if most those same 75% will have Blu-ray by next year.

This still does not disprove my comment about HD-DVD and blu-ray having mostly gimmicks at the moment. And it wasn't just marketing of the Wiimote that made it not a gimmick. It was the marketing of how it's used. If that was done withh your TRAKIR, it would not have given it mass appeal. The HD films need more things with mass appeal.
