I also believe we (3D fans) should support ClassicFlix's I, the Jury Blu-ray 3D with pre-orders. I'm glad they took a chance on licensing Golden Age 3D material and hope it is profitable for them and that they have the opportunity to do so again in the future. More 3D is good.

Some of you will have to forgive me for posting on the topic, but I believe this matter is important. Do not take MacQueen's LinkedIn words at face value. Here is a link to Bob's original announcement that MacQueen is referencing...

We, meaning, 3D movie enthusiasts or "fans of classic 3D films". I do not work in the film industry.

The 3-D Film Archive has a long history with I, the Jury. They have been making efforts to preserve and restore I, the Jury since Bob Furmanek found and recombined it's only surviving dual 35mm 3D print in 1991. That print has played at several 3D film events in Los Angeles and London, which...

You need to calibrate your projector while wearing your 3D glasses or put the glasses in front of your light meter. Your 2D settings obviously will not look good in 3D. A new locked, alternate picture setting for 3D that you can manually switch to when you watch a 3D film would be just fine.

Indicator is releasing Footsteps in the Fog (1955) and Terror of the Tongs (1961) in July. What are the correct ratios? I'm guessing 1.75:1, but maybe 1.85:1 since they're from Columbia.

It looks like the same case with Beyond a Reasonable Doubt too with Box Office specifying 1.85:1 and the SuperScope logo only appearing on the international posters.

Bob, do you (or anyone else) know the correct aspect ratio for Kino's upcoming 4K remaster of A Strange Adventure (1956)? I read on your site that Republic Pictures started filming for 1.66:1 after May 15, 1953, but I don't know if they had moved on to 1.85:1 by 1956 or not.

"Hitherto unknown" may indicate that it is none of those on the list, but something new.

Does the Turkish Dark Country disc also have the audio commentary, like the French disc?

Thanks for the review. I'd vote for The Glass Web as my next most wanted Universal 3D restoration though any of the four would be appreciated.

1. Hondo - Blu-ray 3D 2. Friday the 13th Part III - Blu-ray 3D 3. War of the Worlds (1953) - Blu-ray

I don't understand. In order to sell Hannah Lee again and make more money from it, you will need a restored HD 3D version. No one will buy it otherwise. To restore it, you have to make a deal where both parties can profit. What would an optimal offer to have Hannah Lee restored and...

I'd love to see Hannah Lee and any other Golden Age 3D films that you have, Mr. Williams, if they're ever restored and made available to purchase in 3D. The interaxials used in the 1950s makes 3D depth look so much better than it does in 95% of current 3D movies.

Does the original 3D version of Dynasty with Mandarin language exist? I'd love to see it that way.

I'd love to see Mad Magician after Miss Sadie Thompson. I'd buy Gun Fury too.

For live-action, there is a good motorcycle racing documentary called TT3D: Closer to the Edge (region free from Australia). I wish it includeded longer sequences of POV 3D racing, but the little there is quite fun. For animation, Cars, Cars 2, Turbo, and Wreck-It Ralph have racing. There is...

My first was 3D movie was Avatar in 2009 at age 20. It was Christams break, so I decided to go see a movie. I checked Rottentomatoes and found some reviews about how amazing James Cameron's new epic was and how you had to see it with the "new" 3D technology. I was in love with the Terminator...

Meet the Robinsons looks great. It has pretty strong depth, similar to Tangled and Bolt.

I would love to see the original 3D version of Gorilla at Large on Blu-ray 3D! Most of its appeal would be lost in 2D.

There is no mechanism for stereoscopic 3D to damage the brain. All it does is provide a separate 2D image to each eye, which allows humans with developed binocular vision to fuse the images in their brain and "see" stereo depth. Children of approximately age 3 have this ability. If one does...

3D has not been found detrimental to any age and is recommended for anyone with binocular vision, including 3-year-olds. See the FAQ at the American Optometric Association website. http://www.3deyehealth.org/faq.html

According to "WikiLeaks," for what that's worth, Sony also has a 4K scan of Gun Fury. https://wikileaks.org/sony/docs/05/docs/4k/4k%20Scan%20Titles.xlsx

Technically, in regards to image separation, depth (image behind the screen) and pop-out (image in front of the screen) are pretty close to the same thing--just a reversal of the left and right images. You can't have one be possible and the other not. If the display is incapable of wide...

Thanks for these interviews! It's great to hear from industry 3D insiders about their creative projects. That opening race scene was surprisingly impressive in Cars 3D. The low camera angles and layered scoreboard graphics really made that sequence pop in stereo! I'd love to see the rest of...

The dirtstorm was a pretty intense 3D moment in IMAX. It might be less so without the same amount of screen filling your peripheral vision though. I think this might be one where the strength of the depth and roundness of the characters are best appreciated from a theatrical viewing distance...

Nevermind. I think I got it. Parallax would be image separation, which would appear to get smaller when you move away from the screen. Moving further away reduces the angle that the eyes converge on the 3D objects, thereby reducing strain on the medial rectus muscles. :)

I guess I misunderstood "perceived parallax." What does that mean?
