I always thought that Bad Boys 2 would be as political as the auteur behind the video for Meat Loaf's "I Would Do Anything For Love" could get. But "Frat Boy" from Mystery Men has been ranting about a Microsoft conspiracy that is responsible for the war between Blu-Ray and HD:
"What you don't understand is corporate politics. Microsoft wants both formats to fail so they can be heroes and make the world move to digital downloads. That is the dirty secret no one is talking about. That is why Microsoft is handing out $100m checks to studios just embrace the HD DVD and not the leading, and superior Blu-ray. They want confusion in the market until they perfect the digital downloads. Time will tell and you will see the truth."
In case you forgot again, here he demonstrates his striking resemblance to his latest franchise's logo:
Bay famously threatened to withhold Transformers 2 from Paramount as retribution for their exclusive alignment with HD DVD; a stronger deterrent would be the threat of Transformers 3 and 4, but hey.
