From the Wrap.
Twentieth Century Fox Television and Twentieth Century Fox Film announced Wednesday that they will produce "Glee Live! 3D!," a film version of the hit live show's North American tour. Twentieth Century Fox will release the film – for a special limited two-week engagement -- in theaters everywhere on August 12, 2011.

GLEE LIVE! 3D! will enable fans – or, “Gleeks” -- who were unable to obtain tickets to the sold-out shows, or who live in markets not included in the tour, or who just want to see it again, to experience the concert in the immersive magic of a 3D theatrical event.

Starring 14 members of the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning television show’s cast and shot live during the summer concerts, the movie will capture the unique concert experience along with special moments involving the characters themselves.

“This tour was all about going out and performing for our amazing fans who have supported our show from the beginning, but due to the limited time we had to travel during our hiatus, there were only so many cities we could get to before we had to resume work on the television series,” commented Murphy. “We knew that not every fan who wanted to attend a concert would get that opportunity. Now, thanks to our friends at Twentieth Century Fox Film, we’ll be able to bring the concert experience to movie theaters across the country in full three dimensional glory. We promise every passionate ‘Gleek’ a cinematic experience that will have them singing and dancing in the aisles.”

Kevin Tancharoen (“Fame,” “Mortal Kombat: Legacy” series) will direct the film.

GLEE LIVE! 3D! will include live performances of some of the show’s most memorable musical numbers, including “I’m a Slave 4 U,” “Raise Your Glass,” “Teenage Dream,” and “Lucky,” as well as the original songs that became chart-toppers such as “Loser Like Me,” “Hell to the No!” and “Get it Right,” and of course, the show’s anthem, “Don’t Stop Believin’.” The first “Glee” concert tour in 2010 was described by the Los Angeles Times as “triumphant,” while USA Today called the concerts “equal parts musical theater, giddy pop culture phenomenon and Journey-loving rock show.


Was surprised at who is directing it.

EdTheRipper

I'd actually go see this.

Groucho

I'm sure I will be seeing this unless I can hide it's existence from "She who must be obeyed".

Fist of Doom

Barbara Walters?

slimdude

They are forevermore, trying to shove this 3D gimmick down everybody's throats. It's ridiculous!

riley_dude

Love the show but I don't want to see a 3-D concert.
These studio people are really milking the franchise. How long till we get Sue Sylvester track suits??

Giles

I'm there!

although I'm not too happy about the director - 'Fame' the remake, was dumb and pointless. Why couldn't they get Jon Chu?

I couldn't care less about Glee, but this thread told me the awesome Mortal Kombat Rebirth video is now a web series... and that is great!

Im shocked, this actually has an 80% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Although most of the positive reviews are a variation of "if you hate the show, your gonna hate the movie, if you love the show, your in heaven."

BTW, for the 5 people interested, this comes out tomorrow

Heather Morris in 3D...

Xander

Not interested in the 3D aspect, but I might watch this.

stylesclash516

I'd way rather see Lea Michele in 3D.

Giles

I saw Lea Michele in 3D ... in 'Spring Awakening'

davidh777

She was long gone by the time I saw it on tour.

Giles

she AND Jonathan Groff (okay I'm really diggin it in aren't I?)

The Antipodean

I can't believe they didn't call this "Glee-D"

Ropes Pierre

Heather Morris' "dancer's ass" in 3D...

Rypro 525

and she was naked too (or per the video clips ive seen )

I really did enjoy it, i can def see this looking and sounding really impressive on home format. And the 3D really does look good. To quote Peter Travers (who actually hated it) "and Heather Morris' boobs in 3D are spectacular"

That's the bad thing about living far from New York: I just don't get to see first-run stars. Sutton Foster was here when Young Frankenstein was pre-Broadway, and Norbert Leo Butz was touring in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (I think) and here pre-Broadway in Catch Me if You Can (sad story), but those are some of the rare occurrences.
