It also requires a 3D capable BluRay player. Some players can be upgraded with a firmware download.

I found the 3D version - at the Stonecrest Regal IMAX - to be underwhelming. 3D still looks too much like overlapping planes; there's no true feeling of depth. I'd rather see it in crystal clear blu-ray goodness on my good ol' fashioned 2D CRT HDTV.<br /><br />That said, I'm also waiting on the full version later this year.Macnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786203751553090701.post-8913088013557493082010-04-22T14:50:12.028-04:002010-04-22T14:50:12.028-04:00Watching Avatar at hoome - even if you have the be...Watching Avatar at hoome - even if you have the best Blu-ray player and HDTV - would be like watching The Wizard of Oz entirely in black and white.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786203751553090701.post-16588936528273480462010-04-22T14:47:51.237-04:002010-04-22T14:47:51.237-04:00Or you could do the best thing, and just not buy a...Or you could do the best thing, and just not buy a copy at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
