Thanks hopefully I will pick it up on Thursday. I know it's a film most people hated but I really enjoyed it.

Why in the World is the pixels 3d version on amazon under Review? Mine has been shipped a while back, hope nothing is wrong.

I just looked on Amazon and it's back to normal price. It's currently $20.49 on Amazon right now.

Sounds like the sort of 3D I enjoy, this is the whole point of 3D.

I watched this last night the 3D is some of the best I have seen this year it was outstanding.

Blastcage · 12-13-2015, 10:52 PM

Friend asked me for Christmas ideas, told him I wanted this even though I haven't seen it yet...you guys have me convinced that it's worth it for the 3D alone!

Blastcage · 12-22-2015, 04:18 AM

So, my friend got me this for Christmas on Wednesday, I went ahead and watched it tonight...I really enjoyed it, and the 3D was definitely great! Great depth and some nice pop-outs.

Nightopian · 12-23-2015, 11:46 AM

Yeah I watched it in the Cinema and the 3D was really good. In my experience, usually when it's good 3D in the cinema the home version is even stronger...I'll be picking it up this week...can't wait to watch it again.

Nightopian · 12-26-2015, 07:05 AM

Ok, finally picked it up today and I agree, the 3D is just WOW! Man, they got it right with this one. One of the best 3D live action films I've seen. They probably owe it to all the CGI but they did it very well. There were things flying all over the place, lots of depth both inside and outside the screen. Not only was the 3D on point but the sound effects are amazing in this movie. IF you have a good system, crank it up and enjoy. I loved it!

I'll have to watch it again but I'm pretty sure there was a scene where the little orange character flew up into the air and then out of the movie frame (the black boarders). I've seen this happen only once in another movie (can't remember which one it was) but I'm pretty sure it happened in this one...if anyone knows the part I'm talking about and can confirm, let me know...It looked awesome!!

The things I would do to Ashley Benson...in 3D.

The 3D in Pixels; made with 3D in mind, I agree. Great 3d for the CGI shots.

oddbox83 · 01-28-2016, 11:48 AM

I wasn't expecting much (can't stand Sandler movies, normally) but loved this. I didn't even notice the coming out of the frame effect, I was too engrossed. It was great shot 3D but restrained 3D. I liked it. Great use of depth rather than an overuse of pop-out. Special mention of the PacMan in New York sequence for use of depth to enhance a scene. It really cranked up the tension by just having a sense of how far or how close PacMan was to the Mini Ghosts.

Pixels 3D $12 on Amazon. Not a great film but way better than anything else Sandler has been doing lately. Great 3D & SFX.

Ends at midnight tonight

It's been a while so I thought I'd give this a rewatch. The 3D still impresses with very effective depth and layers and a few fun pop outs. The visual FX are excellent too and perfectly serve the subject matter. The script is still horrible though and Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Peter Dinklage are all terrible.

Just finally watched this the other night. The 3D and animated sequences are absolutely fantastic - sound design was great too.... Too bad the movie is an absolute turkey from start to finish. Not funny at all, so much wasted potential.

I think that the film would have played better if they kept everything set in the 80's and gave it a retro soundtrack score. I know it would be kind of derivative of Stranger Things - but then the kids who were good at games would be saving the world while the games were still extremely relevant. Probably would have been more fun. And why on earth is Kevin James the president? Casting on this one was just baaaaadddd.

Yeah I bought a copy at my local Big Lots for $5 a couple months ago. Very fun and colorful film with great 3D.
