Avatar/Titanic [Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray] [1997] [Region

Okay, Avatar, what can be said that hasn't already been said?, box office smash, highest grossing film to date etc. I must admit I had seen it a few times in 2D on TV, and while I won't admit to being overly a fan of the film, it's worth a watch, personally I think, story wise at least, it's overrated, let's be blunt, it's not the most original film, think Pocahontas in space, but it IS worth a watch, very rarely does James Cameron disappoint. Now in 3D, yep same story, but visually it takes it to a whole new level,yes it IS that good. Many nay sayers are saying 3D TV is a "fad" that won't it last, all I can say is if you want an example of a decent 3D film this is it, the 3D is totally immersive, it just draws you in, graphically it is one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen and worth every penny. Bear in mind that is from someone who is not the biggest fan of this film, so hopefully that will tell you something. (As an aside the box had the "Lenticular" artwork on it for those that are considering buying that version.)Titanic. Now THIS blew me away. Obviously by now everyone knows the film in it's normal release, I was not quite sure what to expect from the 3D process here, bear in mind we are talking about a 1997 film, long before the current 3D film making began, and most post production 3D conversion is dodgy at best, but you certainly can't say that about this film. While not quite Avatar standards, the 3D is fantastic. The picture quality is everything you would expect of a quality Blu Ray conversion, and the sound is equally, wonderful. For a 17+ year old film this really did stun me, in a good way.The final selling point for me was the price. Singularly, they would cost about £20 each, (obviously price depending on the seller so it varies) so you'd be looking at about £40, maybe a bit more for both individually. I paid £23 and in my view, have two great films added to my collection.If you're considering adding even only one of these films to your 3D collection I would recommend pay the little extra and get both, I'd be surprised if you're disappointed.

own over 50 3D bluray, Avatar still holds it's place as one of the best 3D films ever made. The 3D effects are amazing second to none. Top demo material audio and video from start to finish. Avatar is the blue print for 3D movies, the way Die Hard was the blue print for action movies.Titanic is the bench mark for converted 3D movies, an audio and visual treat from start to finish , with demo 3D material at it's very best. This movie is the blue print for converted 3D bluray movies.Avatar ratingAudio 5/5Video 5/53D effect 5/5Movie 3/5Titanic ratingAudio 5/5Video 5/53D effect 4/5Movie 3/5Other top 3D demo movies Gravity [Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray] [2013] [Region Free] and Hugo (Blu-ray 3D + Blu-ray) (2011).I have watched both films at the cinema, But with my Samsung UE46F6500 - 46" 6 Series 3D LED TV - Smart TV - 1080p (FullHD) - chrome silver(UE46F6500SBXXU) with Samsung SSG-51002 Battery Operated 3D Active Glasses (Pack of 2) (New for 2013) and Samsung BD-F6500 Smart 3D Blu-ray/DVD Player, these films show the 3d effect better than the cinema, trying to watch the 2D version after seeing the 3D is a bit of a disappointment. I highly recommended these movies.

Most of this review is about Titanic, since Avatar was made in 3D in the first place, and was as spectacular as you'd hope. I saw it in the cinema in 3D which was an excellent experience, and the bluray is also very good. Titanic I found very impressive, considering the movie was not originally produced in 3D. I know the film very well, so you know what's coming in each scene, but the three dimensional effects were really excellent, and it felt like watching a new movie. This strikes you right from the start, in the underwater scenes on the wreck - it really makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end as the bow appears out of the gloom, standing out from the background. In the indoor scenes it felt, as it should, almost as if you were standing a couple of feet away from the protagonists, involved in the action. The wider scenes of the ship, the iceberg, and so on, really had depth. Great job, James Cameron.

Very good value set. Avatar in 3D is an enjoyable experience being the first major film to actually take the format seriously rather than just using 3D to chuck objects at you, dangle stuff in front of your face and give you a blinding headache in the process. Cameron really knows what he's doing here and has clearly researched how to use the format without falling into the ironic trap repeatedly reminding you you're watching a screen by causing 3D objects to fail to hit you and disappear into nowhere.Titanic is less successful. The post conversion is VERY well done, but also involved cropping the image to 16:9 rather than preserving the original ratio. I'm not sure what some other reviews are havering about when they say that it hasn't all been converted, just the bits where it matters. That's nonsense: it is just in the nature of 3D that some scenes stand out (pardon the pun) more than others but as far as I could tell it's all been done. In the end it's interesting to see but I'd rather stick with the flat, original ratio version - which is also included in the pack in Blu-ray form so even though I'm not likely to play the 3D version again any time soon it's still an upgrade. The Titanic package contains 4 blu-rays (2 for the 3D movie, one for 2D and one for extras) and comes in a double width Amaray case which isn't strictly necessary as 4 can easily be fitted into a standard width pack.

3d version is awesome

Me compre este paq por qué aquí en México es muy difícil de conseguir y en la tienda de enfrente están ambas películas a precios muy caros.El 3 D de Avatar está increíble los detalles., la profundidad, los personajes el volumen de las cosas en fin el mundo de Pandora es simplemente maravilloso. Desde el 2009 que la vi en el cine en 3d y al fin después de tanto tiempo créanme la película no a envejesido nada se ve y se siente como nuevaQue si vale la pena Ver Avatar en 3d te lo aseguró vale cada peso que pares por ella y además si viene en español latino punto demas a pesar de ser edicion europea.Titanic 1997 conocemos la historia ya que emos visto tantas veces pero verla en 3d es otro rollo pero que buen trabajo hicieron los encargados de pasarla a 3 d magnífico de verdad me sorprendió el Titanic en 3d se ve increíble y en formato open mate es decir la pantalla completa y en 3 d me dejó con la boca abierta.Titanic no tiene español latino ya que es Europeo y si viene con castellano pero aún así se disfruta bastante.Si eres tan del 3d te va a encantar y lo recomiendo bastante y le doy 5 estrellas si dudarloLo olvidaba el Blu-ray 2d de Titanic no viene en ningún español ni latino ni castellano y allí si es una lástimaY de verdad vale la pena ver estas par de joyas en 3d en el 2023.

Très bon article

Ok

I purchased a Epson 2045 projector which has the ability to project 3-D material so eventually bought a Sony Blu-ray 3-D player to take advantage of that ability. There are certain films that show off 3-D at its very best and AVATAR would be at the top of any such list. I had never seen James Cameron's TITANIC until I purchased this double bill set from England (a better price) and was thrilled to find that the converted 3-D to be just as amazing as AVATAR. If you purchase this set from overseas you will have no trouble playing the 3-D material here on Region 1 players. TITANIC comes with the 3-D divided on 2 full Blu-ray discs with a third disc containing a 2-D Blu-ray edition of the feature and a fourth Blu-ray disc with all kinds of outstanding extras that I found to be fascinating. AVATAR has a Blu-ray 3-D disc with the feature only and a DVD version of the feature that is in the Pal format and will not play on Region 1 discs. So if you want a DVD version of that film then you will need to purchase a Region Set. As Paramount and 20th Century-Fox combined their resources to produce the film they have divided the world market. If you buy the Region 1 set the Paramount sign will recede the film and if you purchase it from England as I did it will have the Fox sign.
