HD X-Men 3 Trailer available via Live

[bapenguin]

I noticed last night that the X-Men 3 teaser trailer is available via XBox Live. It's also available in the 720p HD version! No need to download that silly Quicktime.

Yeah...I get up at 5:45AM during the week so it's hard to sleep in during the weekend.

Quicktime Player is crap, use VLC or Quicktime Alternative...

~~Arent there HD versions for the PC? Im pretty sure the one I got off Fileplanet was.

Looks better than I would have thought. Fingers crossed, everyone!

Incidentally, the Superman Returns teaser is up as well:

I always use my xbox for this. It is one of the things I love about XBOX media center that I can watch quicktime movies and trailers without installing quicktime which messes up the TV-in card on my computer and makes it so I can't use my XBOX in my dorm room.

Quicktime for movie trailers is consistantly superior to any alternative, including WMP.

I'd highly reccomend Media Player Classic (http://www.divx-digest.com/software/media_player_classic.html), works great for Quicktime, WMA, DVDs, anything. And it lets you load seperate audio or subtitle tracks as well.

Yeah, I swear by MPC for everything except Quicktime trailers. I use the official Quicktime Player for that.

VLC on the other hand, I've never understood the draw. I've had numerous problems with it, many of which having the app crash so hard it took down explorer/winXP with it (which NO other program over the last 3 years I've seen able to do). Sometimes I'll use VLC for some whacked out subtitles, but usually MPC plays things fine.

I can't actually download the X3 trailer through Live... Very curious. It may well have something to do with me living in the UK, but it could just be taking it's time. I'll have to throw some dry ice on my 360 and see if cooling it down helps it.

Putting them in the new section is useless since there's stuff in there that's been there for the last 2 weeks. Aeon Flux was still up on the "Featured" box (at least it was when I downloaded the X3 trailer), which is probably paid-for ad space and thus is also useless for informing about what's new.

They should consider 2 things:
A firm day every week when they do their updating. Say, Thrusday so it doesn't conflict with games that came out that week (usually in stores by Wed), or movies that came out that week (most movies open on Fri). That way people will know when to go looking for stuff.

And they need a "This Week's Updates" section where you can go to see everything that was put out that week without any of the other stuff cluttering it up.

Basically the current system will work fine for a couple months and than it'll be so swamped with content that people won't be able to find anything.

I still can't see it in the marketplace.

Seems like it's a US only thing.

*cough* North American thing you mean. *cough* Canada's got it too.
