Star Trek 3D Blu Ray 2009

Hhi,
I didn't have the black bars problem that @Alphonse had (I think you had to take the FullSBS version and watch it on your 3D TV without modification. Take the Half SBS version instead or else, 'resize ' the FullSBS version).

My feedback after watching the film:

There is everything for it to be an excellent 3D conversion. The depths are exceptional, the shots perfectly respected, almost no clipping... Everything to be perfect...
But, but, but there is a huge problem with the characters!!! I almost had the impression that it was duplicated, whereas the background was perfect.
This results in an unpleasant sensation on viewing which makes it painful and very tiring for the eyes.
What a pity because everything else is really very good!

Hi, all in all an extremely creamy conversion. Distances, depth, all very perfect. No noteworthy, moving connections in the background to moving figures. Even gaps in transparent objects, like between arms and legs, have been adjusted to the background. I agree with "Effe" in part. At least one scene, early in the film, with "Young Spock" is in one Close-up to see a strong double contour. There are also some minor "shakes" at a few points throughout the film. Especially with blurred peripheral figures that are close to the viewer and with a flickering background in peripheral areas. Also, some lighting effects that work well in 2D don't look as appropriate in 3D, particularly on the Enterprise's "bridge". But all these things were already included as effects in the 2D version of the film and are not really a fault of DGC. Of course you can think about editing one or the other effect of the template a little less or digitally removing lighting effects to get a nicer look. Like the foggy shots in the background, which flicker in 3D, or the body parts standing at the edge, which are very difficult to classify from a distance and are therefore sometimes annoying... But my friends, what do you expect? Here you can get extremely professionally converted material almost for free. Studios mostly don't do it anymore. it is too complex and too expensive for them. JFC and DGC invest a lot of time and get better film by film week by week. Alone the comparison of the only a few weeks old "Jurassic Park 2" with the current implementation of "Back to the Future 1", which JFC has just made available to us. Wow, only in very few scenes do background elements still have touching connections to acting characters in front. I'm thankful for every conversion they make. All the best, Edgar

i disagree with edgar, i am not thankful for every conversion, no matter it is free or not. i would pay 10-20€ for a perfekt expirience, i know we have to be gladful that these 2 guy are making this for us. but i would prefer quality over quantity. let us donate for this 2 guys that they can buy better hardware( i dont know if this would help) but if yes let us know!! why both are not colaborating? founding a company earning some money and get real professionells?????? if their is talent go for your goals and make the first step. we need guy like jfc and DGC. #

but if you have a life and do it in your spare time its impossible to do it like the big companys. if we want near perfect conversions w have to invest into these 2 guys.

what are the comunty thinks about my words?

Hi,
Of course, good conversions are also very important to me. Don't get me wrong, unfortunately DGC and JFC are picked around a little, around here if something isn't quite perfect. If something in the film was cutted out, that's one thing. It must be allowed to criticize something when something is wrong. But only when it is not outside of their influence. But if there is something in the master that stands in the way of perfecting a conversion, that doesn't mean that the conversion can't be top otherwise.
DGC set the bar extremely high with Wall-E and got a lot of praise, but that wasn't the case with STAR TREK. However, DGC and JFC are not to blame if the source material contains effects made for for 2D. Cameron had a lot of trouble with Terminator 2 to convert the 2D material well and at least it took a whole studio and a lot of people for over 2 years. In this respect, what DGC and JFC are doing is absolutely great. It is probably not easy to keep optimal results with suboptimal source material and yet DGC is very close to the quantum leap to popout effects. maybe 10-20 more conversions and then...
By "thankful" I just meant that it is not a matter of course that someone spend so much time to their passion and then shares it with others.
I thought the conversion of STAR TREK was great, apart from the few elements that were mentioned, which were not in the sphere of influence of DGC.
all the best, Edgar
