The up and coming rereleases of “Toy Story” 1 and 2 in the 3-D format have the industry abuzz in regards to the potential of hitting up popular library titles of the different studios to also give the 3-D treatment.  According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lightstorm Entertainment is claiming that a 3-D release of the world’s most successful box-office film “Titanic” is itself less than a year away.  With that in mind, the eventual consideration of your favorite mega-action blockbusters to get revisited seems more of a forecast now than just wishful thinking.  Click the jump to daydream about Rivendell, the Death Star, and/or Keanu Reeves in the third dimension.

lord_of_the_rings_blu_ray_01.jpgSteve just gave me a call from the Warner Bros. “Watchmen” and “300″ Blu-Ray event (he says both films look amazing) and he spoke with a source at Warner Bros. who gave him a VERY interesting piece of news:

In a few weeks, Warner Bros. is planning to make an annoucement about their plans for a Blu-Ray release of BOTH the Theatrical and Extended Editions of “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy.  You may now begin cheering or cursing depending on whether or not you own a Blu-Ray player.

So what’s in a few weeks?  Why the wait?  Why not tell us NOW, dammit?!  Oh wait.  A few weeks.  It’s that Comic-Con?  Hmmm…

How much do you think this will cost?  Are these the films that will finally push you to get a Blu-Ray player?  Leave your thoughts in the comments section below!
