The Legend of Tarzan 3D Blu-ray (2016) [Region Free] - Blu-ray Forum

The trailer just came out for this and it looks sumptuous on a visual level. Should be a grand old fashioned adventure movie. Here's hoping for some amazing 3D with it.

Thanks. Looks interesting. Christoph Waltz as the villain, good stuff.

The CGI is well modeled, though the animation looks animated for the human characters instead of motion captured, but still good enough for me to enjoy the movie if it's entertaining.

Honestly Zivouhr i had no interest in this until i saw the trailer, now i'm certainly in as i think it looks like great fun.

Scenery looks great for 3D, with the jungle setting. Hopefully they have a CGI jungle set up if a 3D conversion is needed to make things easier.

Another possible method if it's a real jungle, is to digitally map out every leaf and tree in a 3D computer animation program after filming is done, matching a virtual CGI stereo 3D camera to the live action shot of the real jungle and polygons for each object, and then with everything aligned, use the virtual CGI camera to help separate the distance of the layers. I can imagine a very time consuming task, though similar I believe to how it was done with Jurassic Park's 3D direct conversion (almost no original CGI assets, only the original film).

Every time a strong 3D conversion is offered, I think how time consuming and complex it is to convert each shot, unless they have a program that streamlines the process and speeds things up considerably. While it would be easier to just use 3D filming, the directors often want to avoid the extra time on the set to get each 3D shot set up properly, and opt for a post conversion.

I can imagine this will be a hybrid conversion, mix of live action converted into 3D, and blended with CGI rendered 3D scenery, gorillas, etc,

The casting looks excellent. I'm not expecting great 3D, but I'm sure it will be a decent conversion and a fun adventure.

Have to admit...I was the same way. But now after watching the trailer...it looks really promising to me. Will check out most certainly

It's definitely a darker mood to the Tarzan theme. Hopefully the 3D delivers better than Rise of the Planet of the Apes, this being a different crew.

Eye Candy · 12-13-2015, 06:23 AM

I remember the Playstation Tarzan best:

Zivouhr · 12-14-2015, 04:13 AM

The Disney version was well done, and cel animated. Wish they'd make another one. Don Bluth, formerly of Disney, is preparing for Dragon's Lair the Movie, so that's hopefully for cel animation.

On topic, this reminds me of Rise of the Planet of the Apes a little, with the cooler color tones used to wash out the colors. Hopefully the 3D is stronger here.

I saw this trailer before Batman v Superman last Tuesday and according to wiki,it will be in 3D.

It is scheduled for release on July 1, 2016 in 2D, 3D, IMAX and IMAX 3D.[5]

Zivouhr · 04-05-2016, 01:57 AM

Thanks. Trying to remember if I saw this one's 3D trailer in theaters but I'm pretty sure it was for Jungle Book 3D.

If the 3D is strong I'll check this one out. Thanks.

No big deal, but it's something how Studios keep bringing Tarzan and King Kong type movies back into the spot light but instead of continuing with a new adventure, they decide to retell the same origin story.

there was a trailer to this movie attached on the IMAX 3D version of batman vs. superman dawn of justice but in 2d only.

Yeah, that is what I saw, 2D in front of the Imax 3D BvS. We will have to wait fore the 3D trailer.

levcore · 04-05-2016, 06:27 AM

Very much looking forward to this. Probably my most anticipated for the rest of this year. Looks like a fun old fashioned adventure movie. Am keen to see how good the 3D is.

levcore · 04-05-2016, 06:28 AM

Already a thread for this dude, I started it a few months ago.

Love the more recent trailer, the action looks great, the visuals look spectacular. It gave me a real King Kong (2005) vibe (a movie I love). Christophe Waltz in another villain role is perhaps a little obvious but hopefully the character will be well written at least.

Hardkore · 04-05-2016, 12:49 PM

I never saw it a few months ago. I tried looking thru the first few pages but didn't see a thread for it so didn't think there was one. Should've tried the search, I know. Times like this someone should just merge the threads together.

I actually did an advanced search for "Tarzan 3D" before I posted my first response above and only the animated CGI movie popped up. The search function is very limited sadly.

Zivouhr · 04-06-2016, 02:03 AM

It's cool to see him in this as the villain, but yeah, hopefully it's a good movie with new ideas to add to the Tarzan theme. And I really hope the 3D is strong. That will get me to see this one.

It didn't come up because '3D' is not in the title of my original post.

Apologies!
