Monsters University 3D Blu-ray (2013) [Region Free] - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

mseeley · 07-30-2013, 11:25 PM

I watched this for free a second time recently, and I liked it much better on second viewing

It really helped that I finally got to see Monster's Inc. in 3D beforehand at home (belated bday presents FTW! lol

) beforehand, so everything started clicking it into place and it's one of the best sequels/prequels Pixar has done imo.

I also thought the 3D looked great when I saw the movie the first time too, and I terribly missed seeing it in 3D during the 2D presentation of my second viewing lol

If it makes you feel any better, it wasn't offered here unitl it was first posted on July 5, 2013 for pre-order. At that time the price was already up to $29.99. This happens a lot here to many first-time pre-order offerings where the Amazon.com site shows a lower price at an earlier date, but was never available for that price here on that earlier date.

Came here to read about this.

I was surprised when I saw that the lowest was $22.49 and not $29.99. I believe that was a price mistake (for the 2D version) and only lasted minutes. Same thing happened with 'Star Trek: Into Darkness Phaser Gift Set', it was $24.99 for 5 minutes then skyrocketed to $79.99.

What's the likelihood of it dropping to $22.49 again before release date? Or should I just wait a couple of months afterwards? I'm in no real rush, but want to make sure I get a slipcover - normally I throw them away without a second thought, but I have all my 3-D discs together and like the uniformity of the slips and the way they make that section stand out.

Most of us missed it at that low. Did catch it 29.99 before it shot up to 44.99 (its down somewhat again to 34.99). I don't think it will go as low as 22.49 again before release. Perhaps as a Black Friday event

Ah, didn't know that $22.49 was an Amazon error, it seemed like a fantastic price for a Disney 3-D pre-order! Hopefully it'll drop to $29.99 again. Don't Amazon often offer coupons for Disney/Pixar releases?

Totally agree! It might be the first Pixar movie where I didn't think 3D was an afterthought.

I don't think I've ever paid $40 for a 3D Disney Blu-ray. Disney ALWAYS has coupons for the first week, and usually the stores discount more to the $30 price range.

Amazon is already down to $35 again.

It should since the Target and Best Buy ads have it listed for $29.99.

I think if there was to be a coupon, they all seem to be coming from Scott paper towels recently, we would already know about it.

Thesis · 10-25-2013, 01:40 AM

So no coupon so far for this movie? I'm waiting for one!

Rupert305 · 10-29-2013, 08:52 PM

Since it seems nobody has this cheaper than $29.99 for the 3D version I finally ordered it at Best Buy with the free mike plush.

If you are/were interested in Cars 3d BB is having a promo that if you buy both you can save $8.

I thought about going that way with buying both, but my son has lost interest in Cars lately. To bad they didn't have a promotion that runs with Planes.

Anyone having problems with the audio dropping out on the 7.1 track? It is doing it quite frequently on my copy. And in random places. Seems to me I had this issue with another Disney title but can't remember which one? The 5.1 track seems to be OK. Probably a hardware issue but thought I would check.

That's a common issue with TrueHD 7.1 tracks, especially in 3D films.

I watched my 2D copy last night and the entire 2nd half was constant drop outs.

Decoding in player and sending out PCM fixes it if it's like Brave and a few other Disney titles that have this issue (Monsters Inc, ?.....). I am just going to send PCM from the start to avoid this when I watch it today.

Pfreddy · 10-31-2013, 07:37 PM

Bummer. Glad to know its not because I have a bad copy. It only seems to happen on my set up with Disney movies. I wonder why?

TravelSteveR · 11-01-2013, 10:46 PM

My copy FINALLY showed up today from the DMC (it was mailed on October 18 via, apparently, a slow boat,) and it did not have a 3D slipcover. Disney is starting to annoy me.
