Finally, after almost three years of Blu-ray 3D, the first wave of older 3D classics, such as Jaws 3-D, Creature From The Black Lagoon and the all but unseen in 3D, Dial M For Murder are due for release throughout the latter part of 2012.
So far, the list includes:
- JAWS 3-D (TBA)
- DIAL M FOR MURDER (9/10/12)
- CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON (TBA)
Whether or not Creature From The Black Lagoon will also be restored to its native aspect ratio of 2.00:1 is still not clear but it is referred to by Blu-ray.com as 1.85:1. But it’s defiantly a move in the right direction, finally allowing the release of so an almost lost category of cinema from throughout the ages.
Fad or not, and I do believe that it is, 3D, along with other rare and until now, difficult formats to release such as Cinerama can finally see the light of day, or the dark of the home cinema.
