Another Reason Why 3-D TV Might be Just a Gimmick?

Link to September 3 Technologizer post, "Want Avatar on 3D Blu-ray? First, You’ll Need a Panasonic TV".

Excerpt:   Nine months after Avatar’s theatrical release, it’s still regarded as the pinnacle of 3D entertainment. So it’s too bad that only buyers of Panasonic 3D televisions will get the movie when it’s released on 3D Blu-ray in December.

For an undisclosed period of time, Avatar will be bundled with Panasonic’s 3D televisions, and won’t be sold through any other means, Twice reports. Panasonic wants to make the movie available to people who have already purchased a Panasonic 3D TV, but is still working out the details. Avatar could be bundled with Panasonic 3D Blu-ray players and home theaters as well, but the company wouldn’t confirm whether this was going to happen

James Cameron, the thrill is gone. (Or so sez Box Office Mojo.)
