Avatar 3D Blu-ray coming for the holidays UPDATED
Posted on 18. Feb, 2010 by "Mitch" in Blu-ray, Movie Releases
UPDATED: Fox dropped Gizmodo a line to say that “3D is in the conceptual stage and Avatar will not be out on 3D Blu-ray in November.”
Now this one I could see being bundled with 3D branded Blu-ray players and televisions during the holidays. Many people were concerned about the release of the 3D DVD version of Avatar because there really wasn’t any solid news on its release. All anyone heard was news of the standard DVD release.
Well for those of you Avatar fans, it looks like James Cameron put to rest any rumors that we would be waiting years to see the movie come to 3D blu-ray. In an interview posted on the Wall Street Journal blog section Cameron says:
“It’s all right on schedule,” said Cameron. “We’ll do the Blu-ray and the standard def DVD April 22nd, that’s our plan as of right now, and that’ll be pretty much bare bones. And then we’ll do a value-added DVD and a 3-D Blu-ray in I think November sometime.”
Cameron also talked about wanting to do a sequel to Avatar but wants to do it much faster and cheaper. We also have been hearing rumors of some of his other movies which are or have been converted to 3D. Maybe we’ll see them appear for the holiday season as well.
