Dear God, this is the worst attempt at a money grab I have seen since the dozen Star Wars editions.
Lord of the Rings is by far one of the greatest experiences on film. I also didnt mind the Special Extended editions as I thought they added something special that brings a new depth to the film. I also wouldnt mind bringing Lord of the Rings back into theatres like Star Wars did, but this soon?
Filmrot says:
A process called dimensionalisation enables classics to be re-released in 3-D, starting with The Nightmare Before Christmas in December. “Peter Jackson is a 3-D freak like me and he’s been experimenting with footage from King Kong. He and I also talked about the feasibility of doing the three LOTR films” revealed Cameron.
So now King Kong might get this treatment as well? I think it would be geekycool to see some of the battle scenes in 3d, but I don’t know that we need re-releases of these movies this soon after. Forget working on this revamp. Get to doing the Hobbit!! Why are you wasting time with this?
And you know this is only going to lead to the eventual release of the 3D versions of Lord of the Rings on DvD, and maybe even Kong.
Nice site. Thanks!!!
Very good site. Thanks!!!
Cool site. Thanks!
Very good site. Thanks.
Total money grab but I’m all up for it. LotR in 3D. HS. This is fantastic!
You put LOTR in IMAX3D, and I will be there. I don’t care how much they charge, I will be there.
whats the problem with re-releasing films in 3D???
how is that a bad thing…..I hope they do it with more films…
http://thehobbitfilm.com/ http://thehobbitfilm.com/ <-because the Hobbit can't happen until a couple of studios agree.
I just saw Monster House in 3D. It was pretty cool. The trailers before the flim were also in 3D. Nightmare before xmas was on the films. It looks like this process could be applied to any movie.
I am all for this.The new 3D technology is a really fun to watch movies.Also this doesnt really take away from the time a director takes for a project such as the much anticipated The Hobbit.
If I can experience an Oliphant stompimng me flat in 3D it cannot get here soon enough.
I can’t wait….but yeah, this is as bad as remaking Hulk. Make feeakin’ Hobbit!
As for 3D….Pirates is next….mark my words.
