We will only find out one day before release! Demitris...Demitris...Demitris... Tell you what...YOU run it with dual imaging on your digital projector and put your 3D glasses on. Then you can live out that fantasy you have going there in Aradippou. Meanwhile, the rest of the world will be watching it in its only available format...2D.  |  IP: Logged Ross Oba Expert Film Handler Posts: 181 From: Kailua Kona, HI Registered: Oct 2005 posted 10-21-2009 10:32 PM                     Just had to add a comment on this "hilarious" misunderstanding. It may have been true that Sony was originally planning to release a 2D and 3D version. However, it has come to light that they did away with it probably due to the added cost of production or distribution. As such, the marketing (at least stateside) makes no mention of a 3D version.  |  IP: Logged Demetris Thoupis Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1240 From: Aradippou, Larnaca, Cyprus Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-22-2009 02:19 AM                     And I was really looking forward to see it in 4D!  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 10-22-2009 02:37 AM                     Demitris, I've heard there's a Reading Website in New Zealand advertising it as being in 6D so I'd try there. Apparently, every time MJ grabs his crotch, an usher 'makes it happen' for you too. Honestly. I'd love it to be in 3D...sad that it isn't though.  |  IP: Logged Demetris Thoupis Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1240 From: Aradippou, Larnaca, Cyprus Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-22-2009 04:33 AM                     I know its not coming out on 3D. I'm just messing around. Toy Story sees everything in 4D though!  |  IP: Logged Jim Cassedy Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1661 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Dec 2006 posted 10-22-2009 11:15 PM                     I just got an e-mail today from the distributer informing me that the 2D version will arrive in locked cans.  |  IP: Logged Peter Castle Expert Film Handler Posts: 220 From: Wollongong University, NSW ,Australia Registered: Oct 2003 posted 10-23-2009 12:37 AM                     Just saw in the local paper that "This Is It" will be "special event pricing" !!  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 10-23-2009 11:25 AM                        Oh now that's just greedy.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

Scoreboard says Scope, my booker says Flat, IMDB doesn't say and the trailer has both Flat and Scope footage, so I'm pretty confused.  |  IP: Logged Ian Parfrey Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1049 From: Imbil Australia 26 deg 27' 42.66" S 152 deg 42' 23.40" E Registered: Feb 2009 posted 10-24-2009 03:29 PM                     I've heard it's in "Jacko-Rama"  |  IP: Logged Demetris Thoupis Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1240 From: Aradippou, Larnaca, Cyprus Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-24-2009 03:39 PM                     Local cinema websites list a 35mm version with 2D footage and perhaps on Digital drives with aspect ratios of varyation from 4:3, 16:9, 2:35, 1:85.  |  IP: Logged Sam King Expert Film Handler Posts: 120 From: Los Angeles, CA Registered: Oct 2006 posted 10-24-2009 06:35 PM                     It's FLAT, got the hard drive in today  |  IP: Logged Demetris Thoupis Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1240 From: Aradippou, Larnaca, Cyprus Registered: Apr 2001 posted 10-25-2009 05:39 AM                     I though drives were thick?  |  IP: Logged
