I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but I wanted to verify that you could play movies that are labeled Blu-ray 3D in 2D in a standard Blu-ray player, provided that a 2D copy exists on the disc. I PM'd Fry's for Open Season and Monster House Blu-ray 3D and used the $5.00 coupon, but wanted for verify I can still play them in my standard BR player. I don't have 3D yet, but thought for a couple of extra bucks, I may plan for the future.

Also, I got Hero ($7.99 bd) on a recommendation here, one I wouldn't think to look for but glad I got it.

It depends on the disc. 3DBD's can be authored with a flag that lets them playback in 2D or not. For most of the releases where there's both a 3D BD and regular 2D BD bundled (think Disney combo packs), I'm sure the 3D BD is flagged to NOT playback on 2D players. For releases that have a 3D disc only, I believe most of them allow 2D playback. Like, for example, I know my Resident Evil 3D disc is allowed to playback in 2D.

Anyone have a scan of the Applebee's $3 Rio blu ray/dvd coupon. Apparently both of my local Applebees are franchises & they say that only the corporate stores have those kids menus. They're still carrying the YOGI BEAR kids menus & said they might get the RIo ones in sometime in late August well after the sales end).

Alright:
1) Is there any confirmation that the $5 off coupon has been deactivated?
2) How likely is it that this Rio coupon will work on the 3DBD?
I'm really hoping for the coupon to keep working and for BB to accept that coupon... if I decide to buy Rio, that is.
