Yes, as David Norman notes, it's the (currently) last page (pg. 262) of the "Meet Bob Furmanek" thread. It should be a regular visit for classic-3D fans: https://www.hometheaterforum.com/community/threads/meet-bob-furmanek-htf-golden-age-3-d-consultant.312058/page-262

Bob Furmanek just posted in his thread some great news about discussions to secure a 3D blu ray of Cat Women of the Moon!

Picked this up and was pleased with it -- decent depth/separation, some fun pop-outs.

Hey, if someone did a competent 3D upconvert of Plan 9, I buy that in a heartbeat too! :)

Color me highly skeptical.

Here in the heart of Manhattan, I have just sampled my freshly arrived Robot Monster disc -- both the stereoscopic and anaglyph versions. In both formats... if your original frame of reference (like mine) was the old Rhino VHS and/or the random SBS 3D boot, then, to quote Walter Pidgeon from a...

Looking forward to the June 24 NYC screening... and that's not all that 3DFA is doing to celebrate Ro-Man's 70th birthday...

Picture-wise Diamond Wizard (which came out in 1954, toward the tail-end of the '50s 3D wave, as opposed to Man In The Dark, which came out in '53) is widescreen while Man in the Dark is 4:3. Better source material was available on Dark, but the image on Wizard is remarkable under the...

Placed my order direct with Kino weeks ago! ;)

Just received my Diamond Wizard disc and am watching it now. I'll have more to say about it after I've had a chance to take in the commentary and extras but here's an initial take: It's spectacular! A remarkable restoration from admittedly imperfect source material. Yes, there's some...

This is one of the 2010 articles, about a San Diego outfit named PassmoreLabs taking a stab at a 3D Plan 9 upconvert: https://www.dreadcentral.com/news/17919/plan-9-from-outer-space-being-converted-to-3d/ And here is a snippet (and a surprisingly effective one, if you have your stereoscopic...

And now "Bwana Devil" is coming via Kino Lorber and 3DFA!

Received my Treasure of the Four Crowns yesterday and watched last night -- and this outstanding (literally...) rendition is a hoot! Pop-out City. Tons of in-your-face effects with a crispness and clarity that renders irrelevant any previous version you've seen. I have not yet watched the...

You wanna talk "3D Must Own"? THIS just posted by Bob Furmanek:

Ron, if you like '70s 3D and (forgive me...) chop-socky, then fast-forward to the last 10 minutes. You'll be glad you did.

The 1974 3D cheezeball cult classic Flesh for Frankenstein (aka Andy Warhol's Frankenstein) is now up for pre-order in 3D blu by the good folks at Vinegar Syndrome (vinegarsyndrome.com). It ain't cheap: $49.99 for a multi-disc package. Well, I have no interest in the UHD flat version -- or...

Yes, if it's an independent title, for which 3DFA may have to kick in its own time and resources to a substantial extent, a Kickstarter raise helps defray that expense and secures advance sales -- a very sensible approach. At least two of the latter four titles are under some kind of studio...

One of the most sought-after classic 3D titles! Ro-Man emerges from his cave!

A one-two punch courtesy the good folks at 3D Film Archive: Announced Saturday: Courtesy 3DFA and Kino Lorber, the blu ray debut, expected early next year, of the 1954 actioner The Diamond Wizard, historic as the first British 3D feature and somewhat of a proto-Bond movie to boot. And...

I picked this up years ago and, Malcolm, your review is spot-on.

Yep, A*P*E and Stewardesses were purchases to help the good folks at 3D Film Archive keep the Golden- and Silver-Age 3D spigot open (though I couldn't bring myself to spring for 3D Nudie Cuties). All in hopes of eventual better days/ better titles, and thankfully there've been positive...

Oh, Dynasty is definitely better than A*P*E; non-stop action and loads of fun. Both movies have outrageous pop-out FX and jaw-dropping moments -- in the good sense with Dynasty and both the good and bad sense for A*P*E.

Amen! About the low volume that is. While I haven't viewed this disc, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND why some disc developers set the volume so low that you have to crank your TV volume up to 20 to be able to hear it!!?

Just got my Wings of the Hawk blu ray. And it is stunning. Insanely great 3D, with depth that pulls you into the picture. The image clarity is so sharp you can clearly see the actors' makeup lines. It's a beautifully photographed and entertaining picture, with sweeping vistas, an...

Well I finally received my Silent Madness blu ray (after it initially was mis-delivered to a neighboring apartment building no less! :rolleyes:) I actually caught the movie on the big screen a few years ago during the Silver-Age 3D revival series at NYC's Quad Theater -- and (allowing for the...

If you have not already seen, in the "Meet Bob Furmanek" thread Bob is indicating he and his 3DFA partners are considering a Facebook chat within the next couple weeks to discuss his organization's plans...

This ad from a few years ago would have more relevance today if the Pats and Sawx were still as dominant.

Tino it appears you're an NYC neighbor.... but your use of "wicked" betrays you as a native Bostonian. Amirite? :)

Oh I've got A*P*E alright.... along with nearly all the rest of the 3D Film Archive output. Yes, the 3D's outstanding. 3DFA's stellar work on it gives new meaning to the term polishing a turd. Keeping roughly on the same theme, no doubt you're familiar with the old term "There must be a...
