Is the re-issue of "My Bloody Valentine" blu-ray in real 3D (not red/blue 3d) a Best Buy exclusive? I wnet in there to pick up a copy and they wanted $35. I can't find it listed elsewhere.

Arthur Dent

Yes, it is.

This release is apparently plagued by ghosting, though.

Gizmo

Yep. This I old news...

I'll watch it this weekend. Need to get everything setup first.

Peep

Thanks. I've had a hard time finding reviews, probably because the other blu-ray release was also "3D". I'd like to pick it up, but $35 seems way to much. Have any of the 3D blu-ray releases gone on sale yet?

Gizmo

I used a 10% off coupon last week on it. But try eBay. The Non-exclusive Sony titles are $22ish.

Cloudy 3D was $15 at K-Mart while ago. It was a price mistake but nobody had any trouble getting it by price-matching at Best Buy.

Gizmo, you finally gave in and came over to the dark side, huh?

Gizmo

Price was too damn good for everything I got. I essentially got a new 3D TV for $700 after selling my old one and the freebies.

Gizmo

Totally skip this release if you are 3D-Ready. Some scene look really great, but the film is plagued with so many ghosting effects that I kept tweaking my TV settings hoping I could find a sweet spot. A 90 minute film turned into a 180 minute film and my 'tweaks' did nothing to improve it.

Compared to How to Train a Dragon (which I watched a few nights ago in 3D), Valentine feels like it was rushed to the market.

Not sure if you have the Samsung Plasma or LED, but make sure you have downloaded the latest firmware updates. On the plasmas, after updates, the ghosting was reduced by a huge amount. It may or may not make a difference on this disc; I'm up to date in firmware and while I did see a bit more ghosting than I wanted to, it didn't seem as bad as some others said.

Did you get Alice in Wonderland 3D, Gizmo? It's the only one I haven't been able to get my hands on and am wondering about the ghosting in that one.

Gizmo

I have the Samsung LED with the latest firmware.

No Alice yet. I might get a copy from a friend soon. So far I've seen all Samsung exclusives and all Sony/Lionsgate retail releases. Also got Clash of the Titans.
