		<description>I JUST CAME UP WITH A GREAT IDEA!

Okay, buy the Panasonic 3D Blu-ray equipment, to get the the movie in 3D, Watch it for a day or 2 and return it. Most places have a 30 day return policy, but in California, I believe by Law you have a 3 day grace period. If you buy it with a well know credit card like American Express and they won&#039;t take the return, you can always dispute it and get your money back. Yes I know, this is a bit odd or strange way. But hey, if you want to see it that badly and you already have all the equipment, then oh well.

Who&#039;s you&#039;re daddy now Hollywood Execs lol</description>

		<description>Wow, so all this money I spent on a 73&quot; Mits 3D dlp, Sony PS3 (which just came out with the final 3d Blue ray firm ware upgrade, why I don&#039;t know, since there is only 2 movies in 3D, WOW, NOT) and about to get the glasses and emiter and now to find out that Avatar will be part of a bundle?
So I (and um, all the others in North America and around the world who ALREADY have a 3D player) have to go out and buy ANOTHER 3D player?

HOW GAY IS THAT?

Who are these morons?

How much friggen Money do you want?

Kinda of reminds me of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac mentality and we know how that went lmao</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never given my opinion on a public forum, but this bundle situation makes me sick. The only reason I bought my samsung 3d tv was because I assumed  there would be an isle (or at least part of one) dedicated to &quot;no strings attached&quot; 3d movies near the end of 2010. I&#039;m never buying another product from any of these companies or the movie studios who take part in this kind of product inclusive fascism.  I&#039;m also going to convince friends of mine who are on the fence about 3d to just stay far away until the tech, marketing and stradegy folks grow up and quit hoarding market share by purposefully alienating anyone who didn&#039;t happen to go with brand x. Middle fingers raised high to all responsible. Hope you grubby greedy hogs enjoy a hoggy fat glutonous piggy little hoard fest of a Christmas. Don&#039;t eat your fingers little piggies.</description>

		<description>I understand exclusive 3D releases are pretty standard recently and most big 3D contenders have secured rights to help them push TVs however until now those exclusive releases have been CRAP. Securing the rights to a movie like &quot;Monsters VS Aliens&quot; had little effect on serious movie fans since animated Dreamworks movies are a dime a dozen. However securing the rights to AVATAR 3D for 2010-2011 is a cruel joke. If Panasonic really makes the best 3D plasma panel why would they need to secure the rights to such a huge release?

I already own AVATAR BR and was willing to pay good money for the 3D version but now I&#039;ll have to get my hands on in some &quot;other&quot; way. Thanks for saving me some money Panasonic.. jerks.</description>

		<description>Hello, Andy from Ontario Canada here.  Our old TV faded away so we wanted to invest in something new.  After lengthy research for product, price, features and the bundles (if any)  included we spent $2000 btax, on a Sony 3D KDF-800.  Bundled with 2 pairs of 3D glasses/receiver along with 3D Blu-ray BDP-S470 with the 3D movie &quot;With a Chance of Meatballs&quot;, forget the PS3 games to download.   We were very happy with the deal.  After downloading the new firmware (3D patch) for the Blu-ray player my wife and I sat down and watched &quot;With a chance of Meatballs&quot; and we were totally blow away.  Wow.  THIS is the pinnacle of movie watching.  The quality as well as the thrill of having these 3D movie adventures in our own living room is just incredible.  

What bothers me primarily is, we&#039;ve supported the industry with our money in purchasing their product but there is absolutely no support for the consumer whatsoever from these companies selling the electronics.  I&#039;m talking about manipulating Hollywood in the direction the manufactures want to go.  I owned an electronic store and sold their products for 15 years and I am SO bewildered by the direction and poor decisions being made by the CEO&#039;s of these companies, Hollywood included for leading the consumer into a product bottleneck without any regard or loyalty.

I understand what they are trying to achieve here with their strategy but they are missing out on one very important detail.  Consumer responsibility. I mean they want to make money don&#039;t they? 
First off I absolutely agree with all the opinions sent in to this site and understand the frustrations.  What we&#039;re dealing with here is poor foresight and decision making by the people at the top of these companies.  IF they want the people to come and play in their playground there has to be a reason to want to.  Some incentive, in this case, PRODUCT.  Buying a Sony, Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba etc.  should NEVER depend on what 3D movie is packaged with it.  How insane is this idea.  It comes down to product quality, features, bundles if any, warranty, price and customer service.  ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION CEO&quot;s?  You&#039;re shooting yourselves in the foot buy NOT flooding the market with 3D movies to MOTIVATE the consumer to spend their hard earned dollars on upgrading their entertainment systems.  All you&#039;re doing is feeding consumer anger with the lack of 3D support, namely low cost 3D movies.  

I found out one VERY important thing in business.  Make one customer happy they may tell a couple of friends, but make that customer unhappy, hell they&#039;ll tell everybody they know and then some.  New product purchases will slowly stop to nothing mainly because of customer beware stories.  Can&#039;t you manufactures risk that?  So the point here CEO&#039;s in Hollywood and the manufacturing industry, WAKE UP and change the direction you all seem to be heading.  Promote sales, not styme it.  Do something before you kill the market or slow it down to nothing for the foreseeable future.  These unhappy consumers with tell everybody they know NOT to invest in the new technology because of all the problems connected to supply and demand generated by the very people trying to sell the public on their products.  Seems crazy when you think about it.  These manufactures say, hey come buy our 3D product but we&#039;re very sorry there is no product to purchase to watch.  Yes, that&#039;s incentive alright.  So instead of making the consumer angrier let&#039;s look for a solution to this problem, and IF I may, here is one that could satisfy both the industry and consumer.   

If the industry is not going to retail 3D movies to the consumer then a decision needs to be made to support, with loyalty, to the consumer who&#039;s ALREADY invested in this new 3D technology by giving them an avenue for product purchase.  My solution is this.  After the consumer has purchased the 3D products of their choice, that they register (make/model/serial #) their purchase (internet only for cost effectiveness) which goes into a central data base.  From here the companies can compile a list of legitimate 3D owners and permit them to AT LEAST purchase whatever 3D movies they want from a central location for their own use.  

THIS should make everyone happy because everyone&#039;s needs are met.  CEO&#039;s you want to harvest consumer loyalty by showing some loyalty to those who have invested in your product.  You don&#039;t want to facilitate customer hostility by having the consumer to look for new avenues for product availability.  I&#039;m talking about PIRATING and the BLACK MARKET.  Make no mistake CEO&#039;s, whenever there is a market demand and no supply by legitimate means, the consumer with find another way.  So please take my advise from a past electronic salesman, now a consumer, work together, manufacturer and consumer, with a common direction.  You want to make money and promote your product. well there is certainly a lot of customers out there that want to give you some business.  CEO&#039;s, please don&#039;t ignore the very people who have bought your products, show some loyalty to those who have given you their hard earned dollars.  It can be a win-win situation but only if you manufactures really care.

One more thing, you&#039;d make a lot of children very happy as well as the adults.

Thank you to anyone who may have read this.</description>

		<description>I have purchaced a 3dtv and 3d bluray player and 4 pairs 3d shutter glasses. We have watched aliens verus monsters 4 bloody times because theres nothing else. Friends of mine are interested in purchacing 3dtv as well. But they were with me watching the only bloody movie I can get. They are not going to purchace a 3dtv untill all titles including avatar, alice in wonderland, etc can be brought over the counter from any retail store. In the meantime if pirated 3d blu-rays hit the market let me know I will buy them for sure. These big companys are damaging the sales of 3dtv.  And lets face it 3d is cool but its not that great. To make it work out for everyone they should be saturating the market with 3d content. To sell it????</description>

		<description>I own a large 3D ready tv, a wonderful 3D ready Bluray player, and FOUR pairs of shutter glasses. Clearly I am perfectly ready and willing to spend money on a good theater experience in the home. My entire DVD and Bluray collection is 100% legit... no pirating here. If they release these 3D Blurays with bundles only, after I&#039;ve already invested so much in 3D technology, I will find a way to get my hands on them, and obviously it won&#039;t be through the stores.

I have ZERO interest in pirating films... don&#039;t screw me here guys. But if you do screw me, I&#039;ll be sure to return the favor.</description>
