And that's the problem. Whether shot natively or post-converted, the left- and right-eye images are customized. Showing only one of these sides does not provide a "centered" perspective.

Sigh, they are often not customized (far more often then they aren't then they are changed). In fact few native productions do anything, and one eye in a conversion is always the original image though usually cropped slightly. However when this has been the case the 2d release has always been provided separately. What can also happen is little black bars can show up vertically to the left or right hand side of one of the images. For the releases this happens it has never been present with the 2d playback option as a separate option has been provided. Lionsgate 3d release in how they are made are fine as they currently are.

Name one Lionsgate release that has a poor 2d + 3d release on the same disc, where the fault for it is the presence of 3d and not an all around buggered transfer.

So once again, your worrying over nothing and the thing to be worried about is the companies ability to do competent transfers.

Yes, but that's been done by other companies, not Lionsgate.

You got to my post before I meant it to have been posted. My point is no Lionsgate 3d release has needed that thus far. The way they form/edit the 3d image thus far makes what you are saying a moot point as it simply has no effect. As is the case with Avatar and many other titles.
