My copy of Jumanji: The Next Level arrived yesterday.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was released on 3D Blu-ray in a number of countries, so there's more options, and not too pricey.

For example, this eBay listing of the UK release is ~$17 shipped to the US:

Anyone see J:TNL yet?

Assuming this is Jumanji: The Next Level, I watched my 3D copy this past week, along with rewatching Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle in 3D. Both have good 3D, focused more on depth with little/no pop-outs.

As for the movie itself, it's a lesser entry than WttJ. My wife found the "old guys don't understand what's going on/mess things up" gag to go on too long. Also, the loss of their extra lives seemed more arbitrary/rote this time, instead of integrated into the story well. It seemed more like "well, we have to get the characters down to 1 life each by the end," so inserted enough deaths for each character to get to that point somewhat randomly through the story.

Amazon US got in stock the 4K/3D combo set of both recent Jumanji movies, currently selling at $49.99

Probably post-conversion, but still.

Sure, what the hell. Blade Runner 2049 but that was domestic release, I believe, was ok, from what I saw. This could be just as fine. I just love Denis’ style and look and cinematographer he gets, but I’m sure his vision.

But how the hell do you change those foreign sites language to English? I thought I used to see that option.
What currency, Franc?

Euro.

And don’t call me Franc.

Amazon France does not have an English option, but you can use Google Translate to navigate it. France hasn't use francs since 2002. It's all Euros now.

Giving Jumanji: The Next Level a go now. Nice depth. We’ll see when action gets going. The first was fabulous, I thought, in 3D.

Better late than never: found out the tracking on my copy of JUMANJI 2 3D went dead somewhere in Australia at the beginning of August! I contacted both Random Space and DHL but only the former responded, and promised to ship a replacement, which they said would probably come from their "stock holding facility" in California. It actually came (in less than a day) from Amazon in Mississauga (Toronto). Hopefully this means future orders might also be shipped from these North American facilities, with less worries about international logistics, etc.

January in Europe. I would think same time for the US as well.

Maybe not. Germany has a strong 3D Blu-ray market, and they get some exclusives, or at least titles not released in the US. Gemini Man was released on 3D Blu-ray only in Germany, and Monster Hunter was just released on 3D Blu-ray there as well.

I don’t expect 3D here at all. Already preordered above.

I should have been more specific, I meant just the regular release of Dune, not 3D. We already know 3D is dead here in the States.

Warner hasn't stiffed the US on any 3D title yet, aside from They Shall Not Grow Old, so Dune will probably be out here if only in limited form (mail-order only.)

Anyone know of a 3D release somewhere for Shang-Chi?

It's coming out only in Japan as a "MoviNEX" set with 4K, same deal as Black Widow. Got it preordered.

Preordered! With mug!

edit…wait did this just cost me $165 usd??? Surely better somewhere?

Thank you AS!

did you get BW yet? Watch? Thoughts if so…

I have it, but still need to watch the entire Marvel series from the beginning. Watched them up to Age of Ultron on my older setup, then found that I'd watched them in the wrong order.

Ordered BLACK WIDOW a while back with SHANG-CHI and RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET. Worked out to about $85 CDN each, or about $67 US, so I don't know how a mug is worth an extra $100? Sounds like you were at least directed to the appropriate listing, or found something, umm, elsewhere? Anyway, the 3D is expectedly phenomenal. So many sequences almost seemed designed with it in mind – especially the final RED ROOM sequence. Totally not worth the money – and Disney undoubtedly knows that – but since there's no other way to get it legit, we're kinda stuck. Definitely glad to have it, and can't wait to see SHANG-CHI for the first time in 3D as I didn't catch it theatrically.

In other news, I noticed this thread at HTF in which folks seem to think some rep from LG could be teasing the return of 3D televisions. The TV shown in the first FB post is a $30,000 behemoth, but the followup FB posts shown there, while frustratingly repetitious, are not without interest . . .
