I was going to say that, earlier, but didn't want to start WWIII.

Jessie Ventura in 3D.

New transfer and I'll bite for that alone. A good conversion will be a nice bonus, though if it's like I, Robot (not great, but not awful either) then I could live with that. Or I could just turn it off.

Cover art different for Europe?

Question: Will this include the 2D version and all previous features?

All indications are that it will include the 2D version (it's rare for a 3D Blu-ray release not to include the 2D version as well). As for extra features, nothing has been confirmed yet from what I've read.

But Will it have a seperate 2D Blu-ray released along with the 3D Blu-ray?

That's something that I don't believe we know yet.

[AGH]

Not sure if this was mentioned before, but my money is on the 2D disc being the same transfer as the second release. However, the 3D disc will have a brand new transfer similar to the Jurassic Park 3D combo pack.

It is doubtful. It will probably be the same as the I Robot offering with 3 disks: Disk 1: BD3D+2DBD (Both 2D and 3D on the same disk, so 2D is just the left eye); Disk 2: DVD+Special Features; Disk 3: DVD Additional Special Features.

This is how the release is described on Foxconnect: THE ULTIMATE HUNTING TROPHY – This limited-edition gift set includes an exclusive keepsake sculpture with removable mask to celebrate the arrival of Predator on Blu-ray 3D™ — plus the 2D Blu-ray™ and DVD versions of the movie, along with hours of out-of-this-world extras!


Very interesting! Looks like Dawn of the Dead will be converted to 3D: http://www.dreadcentral.com/news/687...ersion-its-way This is in the 3D forum : https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...38#post7864638

Dont care for 3D just give me awesome pq and aq with some special features

[raygendreau]

Someone with a twitter account might want to ask Finn if 3D and 2D are on the same disk and what extras are included.

From twitter:

John Mitchell ‏@Orville89 1h
@FinnAtFox Hi, i just read that Predator is getting a new remaster for the 3d blu-ray, any chance for a 4k scan? Greetings from Germany :-)

It is ok I had the money for it now so I don't have to worry about it latter since I also pre-ordered some other stuff that will come out around same time so I don't want to go completely broke by xmas time

It SOUNDS like he's saying there will be a new 2D transfer on the Blu-Ray as well.

[raygendreau]

This appears to support the use of the JVC Kenwood auto conversion process for Predator 3D. They quote a German site as the source:

"3D Conversion JVC Technology

2Oth Century Fox is working on the conversion to 3D stereoscopic format with JVC Kenwood technology in order to keep the costs down - some says it will cost around one third of the usual 50,000 to 70,000 $ per minute."

It was no coincidence that the clips shown in the Comic Con Predator booth were on a top of the line JVC display.

Someone should ask Finn. Tyler?

Ugh...another Predator release on Blu-ray? Don't get me wrong, but I thought that last one wasn't that bad with regards to picture quality, much better than the first release. But if it's a 4K transfer, that would be quite nice.

And it should have all the extras and commentary from the old DVD.

No it didn't. The first release is miles better.
