This sounds like a three disc set.IT'S NOT!!!!!! This is three movies,each less than 40mins. long on ONE DISC.That should be mentioned in the product discription.If this were three disc's I could accept the price.But to pay over $40 for a single 3-D disc is CRAZY.No single 3-D disk (running time ,less than a feature) is worth $40.Buyer beware.I won't send my copy back as I need to look a little closer at product discription.This purchase taught me that lesson.I hope my review will make you more educated on this purchase.This came to me without a reciept from XCESSBUY through
Amazon.I even had to pay shipping (yuk).I've only watched two of the features so far (Galapagos and Underwater) but already the disc is a huge success.
As others may have mentioned, this is three half hour documentaries, not three full movies. Considering I've paid even more for a single disc of similar length (IMAX: Space Station (Single Disc Blu-ray 3D / Blu-ray Combo)) I'd call this a much better deal.
The video is much better as well. The images are crisp, well lit and give an amazing feel of depth. The underwater video in particular is crisp and realistic. Rather than the flat 'cut-out' feeling that some 3D videos have, all of the objects here have complex surfaces and depth within the object.
If you want to show off how realistic 3D video can be, this disc is an excellent choice.3 in 1 as it really meant to be.
I have seen Pharaos before and can guarantee: the size of duration is the same from the cinema. So the questions about the film's length in this Blu-ray (supposed to be shorter then original) are incorrect.
The 3 histories are complete.In 2010 3d tv's were new. They needed extra giveaways to interest buyers. the tv's of that generation were far behind the ones of two years later even. I have a 2012 tv which should be good enough for at least 8+ years , even if they improve the tv's each year 0r go to a higher resolution there is not a medium that is that higher resolution anyways. By this time there is increasingly more 3-d product out there. Even some older movies are starting to appear on 3-d blu ray. like 'jaws 3-d" from the early 80's and 'comin at ya' from 1981. it's a good start! but in 2010 there was about ten titles only. samsung sold their tv/ blu ray player package with this 3d blu ray. it was never on sale seperately. And that promo ended in may 2011. So this item is now one year out of print , (in 2012) Only samsung buyers got this disc and by now there are lots of imax 3-d titles out there. there wasn't but a few in 2010. and these titles will probably be released seperately on 3-d tv in the future or maybe not? . But at this time if you want this promo disc you will have to buy it used or unopened used. As it was never a seperate item sold in stores. I got mine from a friend who was tired on this item and still has his samsung 2010 3-d tv. Now you know what this is , it is three 40 minute imax shows, all imax shows are forty minutes; so this is better than most of their seperate blu rays in that regard. One show is from 1995, the other two from the 00's. You won't find this in a store; so if you want these three films then get this. the picture is good on all three items and they are typical Imax nature type shows. As with all promo items they sometimes come into print again and sometimes they never do. It's a risk the collector has to gauge when paying for a promo item. another promo item that is out there that WILL be in print again is 'avatar 3-d' it was only available last year with panasonic plasmas and players. But this is no 'avatar'.Great people to deal with for a item as I had purchased. Arrived undamaged and very fast. The 3D is fantastic. Hope to do more business with them in the near future.
