I expect a ton of kids "making" their parents buy a Blu-ray player tomorrow due to the release. Even though most of the sales will be on DVD I expect this to be a very large increase in Blu-ray hardware and movie sales.

@Soriku - its a matter of the movie. Some movies sold pretty well for the Blu-ray user base.

I doubt little children even know about Blu-ray players.

Wait for Transformers on 9.2.08, that's going to boost sales for blu-ray. Michael Bay+explosions+1080p+Transformers=Sweet Ass

QFT... I can't stand her. She needs to just pick a fuckin name already. She catching up to Diddy on number of Aliases

 

she only goes by two names. The one in the TV show and her real name.

The way your looking at it all actors in movies should go by their real names versus the character. So instead of the joker in the dark night it should be Heith Ledger since Heith is the actor.

 

Hm... Let's scratch that name: "Hannah Montana" You still have "Miley Cirus", "Smiley", and "Destiny Faith Hope", and you think that's normal? She's just going to be the next psychotic bitch that all little girls worship like Britney, or the next famous drug-slut like Lohan, or even yet, she could get knocked up at 16 like JLS.

Oh, and just for the record, she uses the name "Hannah Montana" as her stage name.

She uses that stage name due to the fact its a Disney branded tour and the show is Hannah Montana... makes sense doesnt it?

Miley Cirus is her real name.

The other two or nick names? I guess.

 

Aum... No. I know the following because of one of my cousins, but:

Her name was Destiny Hope, then one of her parents called her "smiley", then they shortened THAT to make "Miley Cirus".

Destiny Hope was her birth name

 

 

Destiny Hope? Seriously? Sounds like some anime/JRPG name. lulz.

No, a porn name. lol

It got a "worth a look" rating from HDD which is good for what it is.

How many girls even have a blu-ray player? Unless their brother or parents own a player, I don't see teen girls being one of the bigger demographics for blu-ray ownership.

It's more for middle upper class families with children of the appropriate age for Hannah Montana, High School Musica and other Disney properties.

There's a definite market for Disney animated films in HD/Blu-Ray (bought once, watched ad nauseum), but that hardly means the children these movies appeal to most own their own Blu-Ray players either.

Same thing applied when DVD was a new, premium format and new movies were about $30 each. Most middle class families stuck with VHS until the DVD format became more mass market friendly.

But no, it won't mean anyone's rushing out to buy a Blu-Ray player to watch Hannah Montana in HD. It just means families that already have HD cable, HDTV and a Blu-Ray player will buy it on Blu-Ray rather than DVD.
