I, Robot Coming To 3D Blu-Ray Later This Year

Fox will be releasing I, Robot on Blu-Ray 3D sometime this fall. The transfer is going to cost them about $50,000 to $70,000 per minute! In a somewhat weird announcement Fox has announced that they will be re-releasing the Will Smith sci-fi film I, Robot to Blu-Ray later this year with an all-new 3D transfer. The film is a part of a new partnership between Fox and JVC Kenwood that involves bringing older titles to 3D with proper post-conversion that costs between $50,000 and $70,000 per minute to transfer a film.

Fox will be re-releasing I, Robot on Blu-Ray 3D later this year.

In a somewhat weird announcement Fox has announced that they will be re-releasing the Will Smith sci-fi film I, Robot to Blu-Ray later this year with an all-new 3D transfer. The film is a part of a new partnership between Fox and JVC Kenwood that involves bringing older titles to 3D with proper post-conversion that costs between $50,000 and $70,000 per minute to transfer a film.

I’m kind of intrigued by this news. Surely this is going to be a spendy project for Fox, so why take such a gamble? The 3D market starting to dry up right now in theaters, which means Blu-Ray is probably going to follow. I love 3D when done properly, but I’m not sure I’d be willing to pay another $30 bucks just to re-purchase I, Robot in 3D.

I can’t fully comment until I see a demo of the film in front of my eyes though. If they’re willing to spend this kind of dough then I’m going to assume it’s going to look spectacular. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!

There isn’t an official date or specs for I, Robot, but it should be coming out later this year. Stay tuned!

I'm an avid watcher of films and I just love discussing and sharing them with the world. I enjoy horror, sci-fi and mostly any genre under the sun, plus I have a slight obsession with Blu-ray's and the whole high definition craze.
