Paramount delays initial HD DVD titles
Just when we were starting to get excited because Paramount Pictures was entering the HD DVD game, they go and take them away. It would be bad enough if they were just delayed, but they haven't even announced a new date yet. To make matters worse, the only thing they will say is that the titles have not be given a new release date. Yeah we know what you're thinking; they aren't that great anyways.

Paramount has given no reason for the postponement, but did confirm that as of today, the titles have not be given a new release date.

They're better off to cancel their current launch which has really sucky titles and relaunch with a better selection.
Four Brothers? Not going to sell
Tomb Raider- Would sell a little bit
U2 concert- fans would buy it but few sales.
They need to go back to the drawing board and come up with better titles.
