Default So who's going to see Jurassic Park 3D this weekend?

I was...until I started reading the reviews.

Everything I've read says the 3D conversion is poorly done and doesn't add much, if anything, to the movie.

So I will skip seeing it in theaters and instead enjoy my Ultimate Trilogy on Blu-ray.

I'll check it out. Why not? I've heard mostly good things about the conversion, myself.
Here it's playing in 2D as well, presumably the new remaster, so even if you're not interested in 3D you'd probably be seeing a better presentation of the film than on the bluray.

Definitely!

Doesn't matter if the 3D is good or not, I saw it at the perfect age to be infatuated with it forever and I can see no wrong in it

I just want the trilogy separate releases for a better price than $17. Hopefully during U&S.

Meeeeeee!

Gonna see it in IMAX 3D, then I'm gonna get the 3D blu-ray on the 23rd. Never saw it in theaters, so I'm really looking forward to it.

It's nice they're giving you the option of seeing it in 2D or 3D.

Nope. A lot of new movies coming out that are higher on my list. If Spielberg (or any other rich person) was willing to adopt a poor 40+ year-old movie enthusiast, then I'd get to see more movies like this in the theater rather than having to prioritze.

hell to the no!!!
Re-watched Jurassic Park on Blu a few nights ago but it fills me with an extreme amount of disgust to see them charging $15 for tickets to see a 20 year old movie. Screw that. Also we dont support 3D in this household even if it is one of my favorite films and one my my earliest movie going memories was JP

Now what would I look like, paying another $12.00-$15.00 to see Jurassic Park in the theater, (3D or not) when I already have the blu-ray at home? That doesn't make any sense! The movie was originally made in 2D, and that's the only way I want to see it, and that's what I've got. If I want to see Jurassic Park, I'll just pop in the blu-ray, and watch it, right in the comfort of my own home. That's the purpose of having a home theater!

I might be wrong, but I am getting a slight impression that you are not a 3D fanboy.

2D Matinee for me. If nothing else it will sound incredible.

I want to, but I won't.

Too many new movies coming soon, I need to save my dollars for. And any I skip (namely this) is another movie I can put on my shelf. I really wanted my boy to experience this on the big screen like I did, but in his opinion there's no point watching something in the theatre he can watch on the home theatre.

And if anyone begs me to see this in 3D, I'll buy it for 'em down the track. But we all know how these conversions of dated movies turn out in the end...

Seeing Jurassic Park in the cinema at age 8 was probably the most perfect movie-going memory I have, perhaps matched only by the first Matrix film (I went in to watch that with absolutely no knowledge of what it was about, nor having seen any images/trailers/ads). As you might have guessed, I was a hardcore dinosaur fan back then.

So pumped to see this because I never got the chance to catch it in it's original run in theaters.

I've heard the 3D is exceptional and it's one of my favorite films of all time, my personal favorite spielberg film.

I highly suggest that anyone on the fence with this one to see it, just for the sound. I personally don't have a theater quality sound system, so seeing this on the "Ultrascreen" in my area will be such an exciting event; just because of the sound and the new remaster.

This is one the best mixed and edited films in the audio department ever, you owe yourself to see this film on the screen it was meant for!!

Just my two cents, I might see it twice this weekend lol!!

This couldn't go in the 'Jurassic Park 3D' thread because...?

But yes, I'm going to try to. Mainly because I never saw the original in theaters.
