I tried it a few times lasting a few minutes each session and thought it was so hilariously fake that I took off the glass and said, no thankyou....call me in another 20 years, maybe then they'll get it right.

I was in Best Buy a couple of weeks ago and out of curiosity, I demoed a 3D HDTV for only a couple of minutes, and within that short period of time, It gave me a terrible headache. As soon as I'd return home that day, I immediately took a couple of pain reliever tablets. I just can't see how anyone can possibly view 3D content on a regular basis.

I did the exct same thing. Didn't need any meds after the fact but I was non-plussed (Julia Sugarbaker quote).

I hope 3D will go the way of the dinosaur.

Relax dude.

I was just venting, because I'am pissed off that Titanic still isn't available on blu-ray disc.

The movie should have been released on BD, complete with a 4K restoration
and 7.1 uncompressed LPCM audio, years ago.

Mark

Yeah, similar thought here. Someone with massive background in documentary and dramatic film making. Someone who has made TWO of the highest grossing films EVER.

Or just some one venting...

Your upset about Titanic, which isn't even historically accurate? (Okay, good flicks don't have to be accurate.)

*I* want to know where the following are:

Oklahoma!
The King and I
The Quiet Man
Willow
True Lies
The Die Hard Series - Fully restored and re-encoded, best PQ & AQ
ALL the Indiana Jones Movies, FULL treatment best PQ and AQ possible! and that even includes #4.
The Original Star Wars where Han Shoots First! (YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE GEORGE!) not the PC version! and versions of Empire and Jedi to match!

THESE are just a few of the titles not out on blu that frustrate me.

There is no 'best of' Loaded Weapon.

It's ALL good.

Was there ever a Loaded Weapon 2?
Or did the first one bomb?

Far as Die Hard, I'm not buying it on BD until they give us the Unrated goddamn cut of the 4th one in HD. Oh, but the current Star Wars releases are the "way the directed intended!" Yeah, Lucas shat all over the 30th anniversary of Star Wars when they should've released the BDs. I think that was around the time he was working on the 4th Indiana Jones instead. Then they screw us out of the other 3 Indiana Jones movies that should've gone blu at the same time. I hate these idiots being the gatekeepers to all the best movies.

No movie that's based on a true story is 100 percent accurate. Even The Exorcist is not pure factual! The demonic possession allegedly happened to boy, not a girl, and other depictions in the movie were fabricated. Hollywood has a tendency to create, depict imaginary events other than the true story, to make the movie more exciting, and appealing to the audience.

20th Century Fox should be ashamed of themselves, for not doing a 4K restoration for superb picture quality
and a full restoration of the audio, for the BD release of all four films.

There is nothing wrong with the fourth Die Hard, from a technical stand point. It looks and sounds fantastic! Although Fox should go back and give us remasters of both Die Hard and Predator.

It debuted at No. 1 in the US, and did well globally, but it sank like a stone after it's opening weekend, so New Line cancelled the sequel.

Loaded Weapon made Sam Jackson.

One out of four isn't good and an insult to the fans.

There's nothing wrong with any of the Die Hards on BD, ffs.

They are not old enough to need "restoration."

The reviews I've read all say otherwise.
