Pretty sure this goes in the 3d section, cant friggin wait for this though.

Isn't that a little too soon after its theatrical release? You'd think they'd want to space it out a bit more to reduce the possibility of people forgoing one for the other.

Do you mean too soon before release? I thought this was hitting theaters in the summer.

I believe it was bumped up to April 5th

I don't know what it will take to get me to finally buy a 3D TV, but this is coming pretty close.

Yeah, I think a Summer date would be better. I know I'd rather watch it then. It'll be in IMAX for the first week too, which is how I'm planning to see it.

No regular BD included? They have GOT to be kidding. The existing BD is a fuzzy holdover HD transfer from the days of DVD.

I was so looking forward to a new BD with a super high resolution scan of the original negative.

Not for 3D. There aren't enough home 3d users to really affect sales. Plus, hardcore JP fans, myself included, would not miss the opportunity to catch it in theaters no matter what.

Although, the movie would've been better if Nic Cage was in it. Just sayin.

Click the link...the listing here says it has Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray... not that I have exerted any more effort than that trying to figure out who to trust.

Im betting they will do a damn 3d/2d disc, though i hope not, but seems to be some kind of trend lately. There definitely will not be a new transfer.

I thought so too, must have been a recent move:

True, but the official placeholder image only mentions a 3D BD and a DVD.

Absolutely, he'd have been perfect as one of the Velociraptors

The exsisting transfers of the Jurassic trilogy are new anyway, and yes, they do suck.

But there already is a new transfer. The trailers show that. They had to rescan the whole film for the 3D conversion, which gave them a very high quality 2D scan, as with Titanic. People have complained about some aspects of the new JP transfer, like a slight change in color timing, but the new transfer definitely exists and looks miles better to me.

Yeah... But Sony apparently does that with some of their releases... According to HD Goofnut, some state only Blu-ray 3D on the package but then have a true 2D version on the same disc.

(Yes, I know this is not a Sony release, but maybe Universal is taking cues from them?)

Ah, good to know. I don't have a 3D setup, so I'm not familiar with how that works. I have a few 3D discs that came in sets with 2D versions (Tron Legacy, Titanic, Hugo, Tintin), but have never seen a 2D/3D combo disc.

Indiana Jones · 01-22-2013, 07:02 PM

I thought all 3D releases had to come with a 2D release either on a separate disc or viewable from the 3D disc?

No doubt it will include one, hopefully on a separate disc so it can release the JP disc in my current Trilogy set.
