I'm a little confused. If ICFOS was Universal's first 3-D feature, what did the 3-D trailer play with?

Fantastic news Bob and Greg! Can't wait! I was there for the 2003 3-D Expo showing and enjoyed it immensely. I'll be picking up 2 copies to support the cause and your efforts. btw...be careful when mastering the audio, because "...at these levels, sound can KILL!" :D

There are several Golden Age 3-D films where the depth of the title cards is misplaced in the stereoscopic stage. Inferno and Mad Magician are two of the most egregious. Man In The Dark had the opposite problem: the titles are correct but the city-scape behind them is in reverse 3-D. Next time...

I would think Kiss Me Kate would be given serious consideration ahead of some of those other titles.

Nothing deleted...the mermaid had a breast reduction. Seriously.

Did you follow the link I posted? There are three different passive Panasonic displays listed.

Only Panasonic's passive 3-D displays are 1/2 HD resolution. Their active 3-D displays are full HD.I don't think they have any passive plasmas. Refer to this list which details actual (effective) 3-D resolution for various display models.

...or before some of us shrivel up.

Trade 'ya. Mine's got a camel in it.

Cell envy. I've got it too.

Local Hero. Pretty please. With sugar on top.

I have no issues with mindless popcorn fare...as long as some of the spoils are rolled back into preserving and honoring the film hertiage that brought us here in the first place.

What I would really like to see is for someone to produce a 3-D BD version of the SmileBox process, wherein the left and right edges of the virtual screen appear physically closer to the viewer then the center. That would be an interesting experiment and would go farther in recreating the...

Unlike the set in the video, my set had the BD on the left and the film frame on the right. I must have gotten the left-handed version. :D

LOL...You know that some people are going to believe this, don't you?

Your next one will likely have a Golden Ticket entitling you to visit Robert Harris' mysterious restoration factory.

My frame is a view of Lawrence and Farraj through a tattered window screen. The actors, happily, can be seen clearly through a tear in the screen, but about 80% of the rest of the frame is darkened by the screen. I know, I know...it's a beautifully composed shot in the context of the film. But...

Matt, your review states that Day & Night was Pixar's first 3-D animated short. However, I believe that honor goes to Partly Cloudy, which was shown in 3-D with UP! a year earlier.

Disney 3-D releases make use of "floating windows" to ameliorate stereoscopic edge violations. You can see a goofy promo video describing the process here. For this reason, the primary stream from one of their 3-D BDs could not be made to pull double-duty as a 2-D version. This is why they have...

Which 70mm frame did your set contain?

Clearly if cropped to 1.66:1, the full arc of the gentleman's swing would be compromised.

You can find some screen grabs here.

I would certainly double-check with the manufacturer before using any kind of chemical cleaner on expensive active glasses. Again, the only thing I use on my eyewear (both active and passive) is breath and the cleaning cloth that came with my sunglasses.

I wouldn't use water unless they are so smudged that you have nothing to lose. What I do if I have a particular stubborn fingerprint is breathe heavily on the lenses (no joke) and then wipe off the breath (condensation) with the cleaning cloth.

I always thought it was a little more than that. Dryden is talking about the desert being a "burning, fiery furnace". Lawrence poo-poos the notion, retorting that "it's going to be fun" and extinguishing the flame with a single breath, as if demonstrating his power to control it, to contain it...

I use the cleaning cloth that came with my sunglasses on my 3-D eyewear. Oh, and if your "peeps" are the marshmallow kind, your glasses are going to get really sticky.

Indeed, product placement predates the Bond films, as Fleming's novels are saturated with it. From Bond's Sea Island cotton shirts, to his custom-blended Morland Specials cigarettes, to the Dom Perignon champagne he favors. Fleming name-dropped in order to ground Bond's incredible world in...

There is no short subject included with the 3-D BD of Polar Express. Coyote Falls 3D was included with the BD of Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore, which is probably what was meant to be stated.

Melody was on the Fantasia DVD box set, as well as a DVD set titled Disney Rarities Celebrated Shorts: 1920s - 1960s.

I don't think I've ever won anything in my life...except that free home security system they keep calling me about every freaking night. :rolleyes:
