Titanic: 100 Years In 3-D Blu-Ray Review
Synopsis: To commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic’s sinking, TITANIC: 100 YEARS IN 3D combines stunning 3D HD imagery of the wreck with powerful untold stories of passengers and crew, letting audiences experience the real life drama of Titanic in a way never before possible. In 2010, an unprecedented expedition by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute and RMS Titanic, Inc. went on location to document the entire wreck site of Titanic, using high-resolution optical video, sonar, acoustic imaging, and 3D HD video and acoustic modeling. These incredible visuals will be accompanied by the untold stories of people who were on the ship, narrated in voice-over by actors. Each person's story will be linked with one or more recovered artifacts that connect to that passenger or crewmember. These haunting artifacts and unforgettable personal stories of average people take viewers back in time, making the history of Titanic as vivid as it was yesterday.
Review: We're enthralled with the legend of the Titanic here at the Legion, as are many history buffs. The History Channel has finally hooked us up with our first 3D look inside the wreckage of the RMS Titanic! This is where our 3D TV and Blu-Ray player purchases really come in handy! I've seen a lot of 3D films, but most fall short. This one...oh my god. The 3D is amazing! There is zero ghosting and the 3D technology is used generously. We get a lot of up-close shots in 3D that bring out the beauty of the ship. There aren't many wide angle 3D shots, unfortunately, but I was pleased with what I saw. The familiar story is pieced together by interviews and narrations and really ties together this fantastic 3D Blu-Ray for the viewer. We recommend this for anyone that is into the Titanic. Remember, this is a 3D Blu-Ray, but it will also play in 2D format in standard blu-ray players, so you can invest in this one, even if you don't own the 3D technology yet.
