Man of Steel 3D Blu-ray (2013) [Region Free]

[Kryptonian Warrior]

As the title states, Man of Steel is, in fact, going to be converted to 3D! It was unofficially announce back in July by the IMAX website, but it was taken down in a quick hurry. It seems as though it was not a mistake, but it just wasn't time to be announced. Well, the time has come and it will be in 3D and IMAX. Granted, it wasn't shot in IMAX, so that will be a conversion as well. Overall, with the extended post-production time that they have had, there's no reason this couldn't be one of the best post-conversions to date. Here's an announcement, and I expect the official announcement from Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures should follow soon......

"Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures announced today that director Zack Snyder’s upcoming action adventure Man of Steel will be presented in 3D in select theaters, as well as in 2D and IMAX, so fans of the iconic superhero will be able to experience the much-anticipated movie in their format of choice.

Snyder stated, “The film is going to be a visually exciting experience in all formats: 2D, 3D and IMAX. Anticipating how audiences today embrace 3D, we designed and photographed the movie in a way that would allow ‘Man of Steel’ to captivate those movie goers, while respecting fans who prefer a more traditional cinematic experience. We’ve taken great measures to ensure the film and the story come first, and 3D is meant as an enhancement.”

This is very good 3D news for such a big title like Superman's Man of Steel, and from the directing style of Zack Snyder, who did a great job with 300 and Watchmen's style and fights.

I hope they can get it done on time with the better than average quality we now expect thanks to conversion movies like Avengers 3D and John Carter 3D.

In order to get to that level, they'll have to make this a hybrid 3D conversion (mix of 2D to 3D live action combined with 3D re-rendered CGI imagery).

This movie has already finished principle photography in July. They probably were planning the conversion throughout shooting.

It actually finished shooting back in February. It started filming in September of last year.

Fantastic News for 3D..... it's actually funny seeing 3D haters still talking about 3D not being popular and no one wanting it when new 3D releases get announced every day.

Didn't it only have 20 minutes of 3-D footage? Unless they were to go back and convert the entire movie, I doubt they'd think it was worth releasing on 3-D Blu-Ray. Personally, the only thing worse (for me) than "3-D storytelling" or 3-D conversions that are mostly flat with only one or two standout scenes is actually having to take your glasses on and off because only parts of the film are in 3-D in the first place. Talk about aggravating.

As far as Man of Steel goes, I'll probably just see it in 2-D. It's about time I started voting with my wallet, and avoiding conversions without exception.

Oh, they must have done some pick ups.

I never, ever want to see this movie again... even in 3D. I just wish it was never made or completely wiped off everyone's memory.

Good news on MOS being 3D, let's hope it's a kick arse conversation.

Don't forget about Sucker Punch. Visually speaking, that movie was incredible! From everything that I've seen and read on MoS, it's going to be a visual masterpiece. Have you seen the ComiCon footage? If not, I highly suggest you, and everyone else who hasn't seen it, find it and check it out. it's still out there. Granted, there are parts of the footage that is blurry, but for the most part you can see what's going on. I can easily see this as being a $300 million domestic hit.

Not officially, but you can still find it.

I know. As the saying goes....haters gonna hate. Here's a post from another Forum I visit. I thought it was rather comical......
"Post converted 3D is awful and always will be no matter how its done or how much time is taken to do it. Im waiting for the damn trend to end, even films "shot" with the format don't add anything to the experience at all whatsoever."
I don't dare disagree with him though, because most people on that Forum absolutely hate 3D. I think some people just hate 3D because it's the popular thing to do.

I saw Sucker Punch also, along with Dawn of the Dead remake. Yes, Suckerpunch, even though I wasn't a fan of the movie, had great imagery and style. I saw the trailer in 3D in theaters for it, but then Zach Snyder said he didn't want them to rush the 3D and it end up not being a good conversion, but the 3D in that trailer for Suckerpunch looked great, strong.
Thanks for the info.

I think if people who hate 3D movies or 3DTV lost an eye, so they could only see out of one eye for the rest of their lives, they might think again about what they're saying about 3D. I'd say it's not the 3D they hate, but having to wear glasses to see the 3D, which I can understand.

We're getting closer to the day of glasses free 3DTV.

Here's more gems:
I hate 3D films and always try and watch them in 2D, lets face it, it's just a way of film studios to charge us more at the cinema and when it's released on disc. I can't wait until this 3D gimmick dies it's death, it's already over in Japan where it has been shuned by consumers.

I thought The Avengers had the same awful, cardboard cut-out 3D that's plagued previous conversions.

If at all possible, I'll be passing on this in 3D

You can tell people are just being negative for the sake of it.... the more 3D is winning,the more they try to trash-talk.... pathetic.

Yeah,Sucker Punch would have been an ideal candidate for 3D,visually it was so strong.
What little we've seen of MoS it will be a feast for the eyes.

People's 'hate' for 3D is just so pathetic now. Anyone who bothers to look at the BO numbers and the proliferation of 3D projectors should realize by now the Industry is banking on 3D 100%.....
sometimes I think the moaners think that it's just the studios pushing it and that there is no big deal and one day it'll just all go away...
They don't understand that the entire entertainment Industry is invested in this,to the tunes of BILLIONS!!!!
There's no way 3D is going away,this has to succeed,too much hinges on it.

All these are just my observations,but I'd say they're pretty accurate.

Yeah it was not the full movie but still impressive i watched it in 3d at imax, was so awesome seeing it on such a big screen, for the blu ray they could convert the entire movie


I think all of this bickering over 3d will soon go away just like with hd back when it first started. its now being advertised on tv so there is alot more effort and money being pored into it, and it will likley be an extra thing for any new tv. All i know is i will keep buying 3d blu rays and games i could not be happier

U know avengers was a conversion and its some of the best 3d u can watch, it just depends on who does the conversion job

Excellent post! I completely agree with what you say about the way people talk about 3D. it's getting reaaally old now.

Especially since it's conversion--like, WARNER conversions, for example--that are taking most of the heat, and causing the public to think 3D = Crappy 3D Conversion.
We thought Warner had sworn them off after Clash of the Titans, but no, there's always some Titanic that comes along and causes them to think "Hey, we can do that! " all over again. Nowadays, we're not getting Crappy Conversions from the directors, like Scorsese or Cameron; they're the ones who know the value of native-shot, it's the studios who think they can use a Selling Point on something that Can Be Sold, especially when they believe the secret to success is something they can cook up in the editing room without those nasty demanding directors.
For Fox, that's Die Hard, Lucas and kiddy-movies, for Paramount, that's Titanic, for Sony, that's Resident Evil, and for Warner......yep, that's superheroes.

We can't stop the studios, but we can help folks learn to tell the difference.
