Before HD became the standard, I was completely fine with SDTV, but after having to cancel my upgraded package, I realized how much better HD is and how everything looks a lot more grainier on regular tv. Same thing applies to Youtube videos and smartphones. Are you an HD nut? Also, if you have an HDTV, what size is it? I have a 32" Dynex. :D
[QUOTE="MushroomWig"]It shouldn't be 'an'. :P Also, once going HD it's hard to go back, sadly my connection isn't the best so I still watch normal Youtube videos. I do that, too. Only when I want to watch a game trailer or demonstration do I change it to HD. It takes a long time to buffer though...
I bought True Grit in HD because I wanted to better looking scenery. I bought Wanted and 30 Days of Night on DVD because I wanted violence.
At the same time I won't watch films like Avatar or Star Wars at all because their entire focus is on special effects and being as up to date and high def as possible, leading to an extremely shallow end result.

Thanks. :P I always mistakenly do that with consonants that have a vowel sound, like "ayech - Dee." I read that with your sig, I am totally blinking voluntarily.

Avatar was not shallow, Star wars is of course.
I thought it was.
How so? The whole story was based around the idea that the human race is built to destroy, the movie is sort of a wake up call, even though most aren't perceptive enough to understand it.

I saw the film as incredibly black and white, portraying the Marines as a bunch of ****ed meatheads with no personality and the scientists and blue people as extremely peaceful and nonviolent.
Granted, I saw the film once in the barracks about a year ago and didn't really pay much attention to it so maybe thats why.
Nah, my tv is HD and my digital cable box is also HD, but there are only about 20 HD channels. Most of them are pretty nice, but the shows are not all in HD. So you'll watch a HD channel then you're not. I don't own a Blu-ray player, probably won't anytime soon. I could honestly care less, but its awesome playing games at 1080p.
I have a 32" Samsung HDTV, but I have no problem watching SD on a SDTV. It's the SD channels that don't broadcast in HD on my television that are a pain to look at. Non-HD videos on the internet look terrible for me as well.
I like HD though 720p isn't that much worse than 1080p. However a much more important thing is for me to be able to get the content on demand, if you just broadcast your content and it's not rolling news then i am not going to watch it no matter what resolution it's in.
I will always prefer HD over SD any day. I have a 32" 720p tv, a 24" 1080p monitor, and a qHD smartphone. Only thing I care to have SD are the old games that look like crap on HD.
I am for sure. I have a 55 inch Sony Bravia in my living room and a 46 inch Bravia in the bed room. Both are 3D so I guess I am a 3D nut too. I just started replacing my DVD collection with Blu Ray as well. Watching movies is me and my fiance's past time so we go all out.
