Sony Pictures Men in Black 3 (2012) Blu-ray 3D [Region B Locked / Free]

Due out November 30th, interestingly it has an Extra called 'Converting to 3D (3D - BD 3D exclusive')

I can't recall a 3D Movie having an extra on the actual process before, of course I may be completely wrong.

Sweet! really happy to see they have that as an extra. They need more extras on 3D blurays that elaborate on the 3D process imo

Was this one worth seeing in 3D? Or another crap 3D conversion?

Dear nycomet no unfortunately there has been no news as of lately of MIB 1 and 2 being converted to 3D like the first 2 Madagascar films are. The Madagscar films are made by Dreamworks Animation Men In Black 1-3 were made by Sony based off the Malibu Comic The Men In Black Owned by a sub division of Marvel Comics.


Ps: There is also no shopping website on the entire web that's reliable that says Men in Black 1 and 2 are coming in 3d blu-ray unlike Madagscar which in the past was up for pre-order at play.co.uk Sorry!

Yes. MIB3 3D had really good, consistent 3D for a conversion when I saw it in the theater.

Hey guys,

Just picked up my Blu-ray 3D copy of MIB3 today (Australian release).

Disappointed to report that the SKUs for MIB3 in Australia are quite different to those that will be released in the States come November.

There are 4 different versions available:

1) 3D Blu-ray/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy edition (JB Hi Fi exclusive)
2) Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy edition
3) 3D Blu-ray edition (appears to be 1-disc only)
4) Blu-ray edition (appears to be 1-disc only)

It looks like versions 3) and 4) only have the extra features pertaining to that particular disc (ie, the 3D version only has the two extra features that deal with the 3D aspect of the film, whereas the Blu-ray edition has the other features [except the music video and whatnot that are only available on the DVD edition of the movie]).

Pretty disappointing that, if you want the 3D version of the movie with all of the extra features, you HAVE to buy the JB Hi Fi exclusive ($43 AUD). I notice that you guys will be getting a 3D version that contains the regular 2D Blu-ray disc also? Luckily, the 3D Blu-ray edition only set me back $29 AUD at Big W.

Anyways, just thought I'd give everyone the heads up since artwork for the 3D edition online is different to what is actually in-store (online artwork says 'Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray' on the front - actual SKU is only 'Blu-ray 3D'.

The 3D was used nicely, and no scenes were overly flat. Facial features were a bit under-dimensionalized for my taste, which kept me from fully enjoying the 3D. It's certainly one of the best conversions, but I wouldn't feel any rush to see it if you're not interested in the story.

That's disappointing. I was imagining at least 15 minutes.

Default Mib3

All this talk about MIB3 3D being a "3D Conversion" has my head spinning! I was under the belief that this third MIB was NATIVE 3D, ie. shot in 3D. This is how it was advertised on TV, in newspapers & shown in theaters. Thus no "conversion" would be involved. Although a rating of how well the 3D effects appear is always interesting to read especially prior to possibilly buying.
The only Will Smith movie that I know of being converted from 2D to 3D is "I Robot" which I now have in 2D and from the way it's filmed looks like it would make a great 3D movie. Looking forward to it!
Any info about MIB3 3D mentioned above is appreciated. Thanks!

I got the 3D one (wasnt interested in the DVD copy nor Digital Copy). Not sure why Sony here (in Australia) put both 2D and 3D on one disc while the others usually have the 3D only and 2D blu-ray included.

Spiderman i'm getting the Quad pack if its released the same way as MIB3

Yeah, MIB3 has really good 3D overall for a conversion.
