ORIGINAL: DONOVAN KURTWOOD Don't worry, Wrath of the Titans has reference quality 3D, it's absolutely amazing and one of my favourite 3D titles. I love those kinds of movies anyway so really like the movie itself too. Loads of great depth. In all honesty conversions get a bad rap for no reason at all. Some of the most impressive 3D titles are conversions. Avengers has reference quality 3D and that was a conversion. Also if you get the chance i highly recommend Titanic 3D, a superlative conversion and one of the best looking live action titles around! Men in Black 3 was also a conversion and has fantastic 3D. Same goes for John Carter. Ive got the Titanic 3D set, and I agree with you that its a very impressive conversion. I suppose we shouldn't be surprised though as James Cameron has been at the forefront of the current 3D revival and I couldn't see him putting out a dodgy disc. Also got John Carter, which to me was unfairly slated, plus the 3D is pretty good. Havent got MIB3 yet, but will pick it up in a sale at some point. When Best Buy went tits up, I managed to pick up The Lion King, and Beauty and the Beast pretty cheap, and was surprised to see how good even 2D cartoons can look converted, particularly The Lion King. Out of curiosity I managed to find a copy of Mars Needs Moms 3D on Amazon for £18. It was pretty slated on release, but being a fan of Robert Zemeckis (even his CG stuff like Beowulf, Polar Express, and A Christmas Carol), I thought Id give it a look. It wasn't brilliant, but certainly not as bad as the reviews had suggested, and the 3D was good, but I didn't think it was a keeper, so I put it on ebay and some guy bought it for £26! I really want to see Mars Needs Moms! I would have taken it off your hands. Although you made a good profit anyway. I've heard nothing but good things about some of those Disney cartoon conversions, so i'm glad to hear you also rate them. This week i picked up Resident Evil: Retribution and Paranorman. Both were very enjoyable. Paranorman has fantastic stop motion animation and is a lot of fun. Resident Evil is more of the same but i enjoy that kind of stuff so i thought it was a blast. Good 3D in both, with Resi Evil probably coming out tops in that area.
