Need for Speed 3D Blu-ray (2014) [Region Locked / Free]

[whippet]

Awesome movie all the way! :

Love the feel of it. Not too serious, not overly childish like some F&F moments.
Keep in mind that no cgi was used in car scenes!

Awesome cars with Koeenegsegg, Veyrons, lambos, McLaren p1, etc.

GO SEE THIS!

Cool. Yeah, those car scenes were great and really well filmed.
Did you get to check out the 3D version? It's worth it.

I hope the movie did enough sales to make some money, but if not, maybe on video it can earn something back. Theatrical releases these days for more unique themed movies are a tough sell in the US anyway. Drive caught on really well, but, here is the latest earnings at theaters:

Domestic Total as of Mar. 24, 2014: $31,235,650
Distributor: Buena Vista Release Date: March 14, 2014
Genre: Action Runtime: 2 hrs. 10 min.
MPAA Rating: PG-13 Production Budget: $66 million
Total Lifetime Grosses
Domestic: $31,235,650 24.5%
+ Foreign: $96,100,000 75.5%
= Worldwide: $127,335,650
Domestic Summary
Opening Weekend: $17,844,939
(#3 rank, 3,115 theaters, $5,729 average)
% of Total Gross: 57.1%

So 127mil worldwide is not bad, but keeping in mind, the theaters probably take half of that maybe, then the cost for promotion of the film is extra.

Looking forward to this on blu ray 3D.

Of course I saw it in 3D. The visuals were great. I am a huge car fanatic, so that wasn't the part of the film that impressed me the most. I really liked the open roads of Middle America, like something out of gumball rally. 3d added a fair amount to the experience.

While the P1 and all the American muscle cars were really cool, I thoutheght the rest of the supercars felt a little flat. I realize they were replicas, and maybe that's why they looked like they were made of cardboard and flexing while being driven. The flat black lambo looked spray painted. The red Koeenegsegg looked plastic. The Mustang was too generic and there wasn't a single porsche in the film.

I loved the part with the cop at the gas station in Idaho and all the flying shenanigans!

Cool. Yeah, the 3D was a nice addition to this one.
That scene with the cop at the station. That was hilarious.
Lots of cool stunts in this one.
My favorite scene would be the trio race on the freeway, and Aaron Paul on the wrong way of the freeway while still racing the other two on the right side of the road. Crazy and the sense of speed really well done.

I am still seeing the Mustang Ford Commercial featuring NFS the movie, showing the red new version (which only appears at the end actually), but you're right, I didn't see many ads featuring the 3D aspect other than maybe once right before the movie was released.

The 3D was a last minute decision, but turned out very nice (mostly medium 3D), as proven by the fact the stereo 3D credits only appeared after then final Dreamworks logo flashed after the main credits.

Pre-order went up for the UK 3D Blu-ray, which is good since Disney are not releasing a 3D disc in the US.
