Huh ? You're wanting to rent Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs ? AFAIK, that's the ONLY 3D BD that's been released for sale so far in this country. I'll be glad to rent you MY copy...but it'll cost you.....

There is a number of 3D Blu-rays out there. But at the moment all of them but Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs are tied up on exclusive packages with the 3D TV brands. (At least in the USA.) This means they are unavailable to purchase unless you by the TV, or the 3D glasses starter kit from Samsung.

The next general release is Monster House 3D, coming up September 14th.
And the first live action 3D release (other than the Imax documentaries) will likely be Resident Evil Afterlife. Which hits theaters September 10th. That one will be released on blu-ray 3D as soon as the movie is ready for a blu-ray release.

It's likely to be a long time before any of these 3D Blu-rays are available to rent. If ever. But from what I hear, Direct TV has a 3D Channel where you can order 3D movies off of, if you wanted to go that rout.

You're welcome. The Direct TV option is not such a bad deal if you watch a lot of cable TV anyway, and don't mind paying extra for the pay per view on the 3D movies. And there is always the 3D sporting events too. I checked into it, and decided to just wait for the blu-rays though. I don't watch much normal TV, or sports. I mostly watch stuff from Netflix. So I didn't want to sign up for a two year contract just so I could have one pay per view 3D channel. Maybe it will work out for you though. Good luck.

hey all,
just the other day i was browsing the tv channels and i clicked on the "High-Def On Demand Channel"
and in one of the sub menues is 3D, they had 4 3D movies for rent, and all say 3D tv and 3D glasses needed.
movies = Under the Sea 3D (Imax movie)
Into the Deep 3D (Imax Movie)
Nascar 3D (2004 movie about Nascar)
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D (Branden Frasier)

i will rent one over this coming weekend and let you know how it is

Oniichan · 10-03-2010, 04:49 PM

ok,
i just watched Under the Sea 3D rented from Time Warner from the High Def on Demand channel......IT WAS AWESOME

the 3D was great, i am not kidding, there was this really awesomest 3D i ever seen, the part with the Potato Cod, i sit like maybe 8-9 feet away, and it looked like it was right in front of my face, again, it was just totally awesome.

i will definetly be buying this when it comes out....

kudos to time warner for even offereing 3D content

Newport, Ohio · 10-03-2010, 06:06 PM

Although I don't have a 3d TV, I just noticed last night that Time Warner offered this while I was scrolling through the On-Demand movies. I'm glad it looks good, I might have to go over to my friends and check it out for myself.

scurby2 · 10-04-2010, 02:40 PM

I also just watched Under the Sea, on TW cable......it is really awesome, but only 40 minutes.

In my opnion buying dvd movies is a waste, so for $4.99 this rental is perfect and you can watch as many times in the 24 hr time window.

Califguy · 10-04-2010, 06:47 PM

Last night I saw Journey to the center of the earth in 3d and I was empressed. Just got my 73 inch tv last week and this was my first 3d movie. hope to see many more in the future.

jsscooby · 10-04-2010, 10:44 PM

I'll have to go home and check my on demand for TW and see if 3D is there. Not that I have a 3D tv.

scurby2 · 10-05-2010, 05:06 PM

This might only be in the TW california areas currently

scurby2 · 10-19-2010, 01:36 PM

Time warner just added several new 3D programs to the ON demand selection, best part is they are FREE !

several Imax movies and short computer animation stuff

mummies
the sun
african safari.
haunted house
alien adventure
etc.....

Amnalehu · 11-01-2010, 03:09 AM

SenseOffender · 11-01-2010, 05:50 AM

Awesome! I was hoping this would happen at some point.

ckenisell · 11-01-2010, 07:03 AM

Yeah, I already downloaded a 3D demo video (the free one) and played it in 2D just to see if it would work. Looks like it'd be cool in 3D, but I don't yet have a 3DTV. Keyword: "yet".

SteelCity86 · 11-01-2010, 02:51 PM

I saw Monster House on there 2 weeks ago (approx.) and the Bon Jovi video and 3d preview came a little later. The only thing that sucks is that its 720p SbS so its going to be cutting the res in half

But still an awesome feature and 1 Im certainly glad they have. The PS3 is the system that keeps on growing.

DragosC · 11-01-2010, 03:56 PM

Sounds like a good push forward.

2 Drawbacks though:

2.0 channel stereo = not good

720p video 3D = could be better.

3D Blu-ray is still better. Hard to replace the disc quality.

I put some great movie deals in the Movie deal section.... This week at Ultimate Electronics.... Hopefully BB will match their prices if there isnt a UE by you
