I'm pretty sure blu-ray.com put that date up as "wishful thinking". It's not on there anymore.

^ Han Solo's short haircut always bothered me in that photo used on the DVD cover art.

They were at the forefront of Blu-ray features in 2007...Ratatouille's commentary had supplemental photos pop up throughout, something that you don't even see today. With a shitload of upgrade incentives and all those $10 off coupons. Also they were pretty obsessed with BD Live - the weather on the main menu of Sleeping Beauty was supposed to reflect the real time weather in your neighborhood...for some reason. But with a new media, yeah I doubt they'd be on board at this time.

I'm in the same boat. It would difficult to convince myself to buy this knowing it was shown 3D. If I had to, I would have no problem importing. I've done it before, but you would think this would be a title that would get a 3D release. If any one title could invigorate 3D Blu-ray sales, it's this one.

Nope. In this case, not having a 3D release of this isn't a bad thing. Although that one bit showing that destroyer pop right out of the screen was pretty good, especially in IMAX. 3D didn't add much to the rest of the movie.

even if it wasn't utilized effectively or as effectively as some others i would still take the option as that is my preferred choice nowadays...

Not for me, just because it was in 3D doesn't mean I may want it for home viewing. In fact, I'd prefer it if they gave us the IMAX scenes in their original aspect ratio over 3D. Sure it was only a scene, but at least it was shot that way.

Disney has done this for both Tron: Legacy and Guardians of the Galaxy (well, only on the 3D disc). I don't see why they wouldn't do it here.

It feels like it's a slap in the face to the cinematographer. Here's this nicely framed shot that's trying to convey a certain mood and setting - but it's destroyed because a person/object is popping out and taking total focus away from everything else. Very annoying and distracting.
I initially didn't have any plans to see the film again, but I think I'll watching it again in non-3D to see all the stuff I missed.
