Last week I called into my favorite second hand record store, as well as a huge selection of records, they also have DVDs and Blu-rays. One such blu-ray caught my eye was this one, still sealed and brand new for $10 about five pound.
Disc one was Part One of the 3D version, with a nice 1:75:1 picture ratio. Disc Two was the second part in 3D.
Disc three was the 2D version, with Disc four with the special features.
All up this four disc blu-ray "Titanic" was incredible value.
With a feature length of 194 mins, I was wondering how I would last using the Epson 3D glasses. Thinking I would just watch disc one and watch the second disc another night as it might be a bit much.
The 3D image quality was simply stunning and the detail eg the wood grain on a table, the dining area, etc in fact there was so much small detail that the 3D image gave you that I never saw in the film print. Instead of just watching the first half I landed up watching all 190mins with those glasses on the Epson VP
James Cameron and his team in producing a 3D version of his film, has done a amazing job on this transfer, also the 1:78:1 3D ratio was just right for the Epson VP and me. I should add that Disc three, the 2D version gives you the full 2:40:1 ratio.
To sum up "Titanic" in 3D, its fantastic to watch, and as such I would very highly recommed it.

Hi Everyone
Thanks Colin for that suggestion regarding Alice In Wonderland "Johnny Depp" on 3D. I will look out for it .
Thanks for posting those Lee,
Last year before I even got the 3D glasses, I had my eye on picking up 3D discs. I did feel at the time though, that I was taking a chance on the older movies like Jurassic Park. The reason was that I was disappointed watching them at the cinema, and came to the conclusion, that unless it was made in 3D I would avoid them.
My reservations went out the window, when at home I viewed the 3D Blu-ray of Jurassic Park, it was truly amazing...I was sold on it
The Jurassic Park four disc collection that I bought below, included "Jurassic Park" both in 2D and 3D, also included was "Jurassic World" in 2D and 3D. Great value for only $9 brand new.
Anyway I try to balance out watching movies on the silver disc on some nights, and on others watch Super8, 16mm and 35mm film instead.
The best of all worlds ![-](http://8mmforum.film-tech.com/cgi-bin/showpic.cgi?dir=uploads0503&file=P1070048.JPG)
