Hi-Def 3-D Takes You Up Close To Stunning Underwater Images Of The Titanic Wreckage
NOTE: Current Product Information lists the run time on this DVD as 94 minutes. That is incorrect, it is 45 minutes. If it has already been corrected by the time you read this, please disregard.
Our fascination with the tragedy of the Titanic has never waned. In April, it was the 100th anniversary of the sinking of this "unsinkable" giant on its maiden voyage. There has, through the years, been so much material presented about the disaster through various media outlets. Enthusiasts and casual historians with an interest in the topic have likely snapped up some of the higher profile pieces related to that fateful night. With that said, don't be surprised if "Titanic: 100 Years in 3-D" feels very similar to other specials you may have seen. I was excited to check out this new presentation, largely for the promise of 3-D. The distinctive selling point of this 45 minute short is the inclusion of underwater footage of the wreckage shot in a revolutionary new 3-D HD...
Nice underwater 3D images
Titanic 100yrs History channel in 3D. has some truly great 3D images of the ship resting on the ocean floor. Not just the 3D, but the sharpness and lighting are also top notch. If you're interested in seeing some excellent shots of the wreckage, this is definitely a satisfying view.
Now, as far as the documentary goes, I'd say it's not really much better or worse then the many Titanic documentaries that have been seen on cable since the new millennium began. It's decent enough.
Despite another review, I had no problems playing this on my 3D computer and the 3D was fine. No problems at all. I must say, however, that I saw no way to play this in 2D. I tried just out of curiosity, and just got double images. So, it would seem if you don't have 3D, you'd probably do best to wait on this one. I know all 3D Blu-rays (at least the movies) are supposed to include a 2D version and I'll keep trying. If I can get it to work, I'll update. There is no 2D option on the menu,...
Titanic 3D
I am a history buff and really found this DVD to be extremely interesting. The 3D version made it something you have to see.
