Ender's Game (2013) Never in 3D - Blu-ray Forum

3D4ever · 10-23-2013, 09:18 PM

After my post on the Lone Ranger 3D Blu-ray yesterday, I just read on AICN that there is a special screening of Ender's Game in IMAX 3D coming soon, when even the director Gavin Hood insists the movie is in 2D... did the studio have its way?!

Why didn't they do a 3D conversion of this movie? The different sci-fi action scenes in the trailer would be just perfect for being in 3D!

Ain't it Cool News is to Reliable News Source as Jacksonville Jaguars is to Chance of beating the SF 49ers.

There is no 3D version of this film.

Yup, the film is in IMAX but not IMAX 3D.

I wonder if they regret not offering 3D after seeing the success of another space movie Gravity 3D. Another thing is, this is the same kid that starred in the filmed 3D Scorsese Movie Hugo 3D.
Ender's Game should have been offered in strong 3D.

What does this have to do with anything? In the same vein, should every movie starring Chloe Grace Moretz be 3D as well?

A potential 3D enthusiast's following would be associated with the actor and exhibition factor.

Looks like you're right - they've amended that story and it now says IMAX only. Mystery solved...

Who's boycotting the movie because it's not going to be in 3d?

I don't think that's happening. I'll see it in 2D as I do with most 2D only movies. But 3D would have been welcome if they had the budget and ambition to do it, as it's a lot of extra work if filmed that way, and converted too.

Not me. I'm boycotting it because OSC is a disgusting bigot.

Agreed, unfortunately he already got paid so any boycott of the theatrical showings won't affect him in the short term.
