So regarding the titanic DVD, the black bars are huge, is the widescreen really that wide? It's kinda annoying, takes up half the screen.

It's when the action shifts to 1912, however, that the image really puts on a show. The bustling docks spring to life like never before as the crowds of people take on a very real, evident shape even as they're packed together and hurriedly moving about. Rose's reveal is defined by the shape of her hat, which transforms from flat 2D to a beautifully voluminous object in 3D. Of course, the splendor of the ship is striking. Its length and width and promise of power are conveyed perfectly in 3D. Whether at the docks, out at sea, or while meeting its tragic fate, the scope of the entire thing will amaze audiences no matter its place or condition in the movie. The interiors prove just as impressive, if not more so. The size of the engine room and the heavy-duty machinery churning up and down is captured in 3D with a sense of size and rhythm that simply cannot be experienced in two dimensions
Been watching it like crazy.
The picture is fantastic.
I think I saw another review on AVS forum that seemed more in line with my expectations. Great across the board for the 2D version and slightly marked down for the 3D version, which I would agree with. Fuck the 3D conversion.

There is little use of 3D imagery that goes well beyond the screens borders but natural dimension abounds which enhances the being there effect. I wasnt drawn out of the film by odd looking proportions or hokey 3D for 3Ds sake. In fact I would say that it was just the opposite. Comparing color and fleshtone reproduction to the 2D presentation I found the 3D presentation to be just a tad warmer but not unnaturally so. The rendering of detail and clarity is identical. I couldnt help but feel a slight preference for the 3D version but that is probably more of a placebo effect. You cant go wrong either way.
Um... NO!
From AVS review:
3D > 2D.
Well it was another review then.
Either way, the 3D conversion definitely detracts from the film. The floating corpses scene had a lot of ghosting in theatres. It was the final nail in the coffin for me giving 3D conversions the time of day.
So you're writing off 3D conversions entirely due to artifacts in ONE scene? If other movies get the Titanic 3D treatment... you're going to rail against it???
Conversion 3D is my only hope of getting Jurassic Park, Speed Racer, and Matrix in 3D.
Hmmm. I am off work Monday. Might be worth the two hour train ride to NYC for this.
FUCKING DO IT! I would if I could.
And ask him if Battle Angel is going to be a return to an R rated Cameron or not.
I live too far away I tried to win one of the signed copies on Twitter though.
A couple of weeks ago I tried to win a trip to Belfast to meet with Cameron.
lol people looked at me when I picked this up
