DirecTV Ramping Up 3D Content!! Here's What To Expect In The Coming Months...

Starting this December and January DirecTV is lining up a dozen 3D movies for its viewers! We are finally seeing some real action with 3D home entertainment guys. Check out the available titles...

December sees the introduction of DISNEY'S A CHRISTMAS CAROL, THE LAST AIRBENDER, STEP UP 3D, BOLT, SCAR 3D and CHICKEN LITTLE all at $6.99 each. Anything 3D in their library will be $4.99 each.

January will see DESPICABLE ME, SHREK FOREVER AFTER, ALPHA & OMEGA, SAW 3D, MEET THE ROBINSONS and GRAND CANYON: RIVER AT RISK hit satellite dishes everywhere.

Derek Chang, EVP Content Strategy & Development, DirecTV said: "With up to a dozen of the most popular 3D movies available on DirecTV and ‘Black Friday' right around the corner, there is no better time for consumers to put that 3DTV set at the top of their holiday shopping list. Experiencing a Hollywood feature film in 3D in the home is truly the essence of what 3DTV technology was made for, and now DirecTV customers can share this new phenomenon with their whole family right in their living room."

Further, DirecTV has announced two stereoscopic 3D specials:
First up is the MACY'S PRESENTS JESSICA SIMPSON: HAPPY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL with musical guests Carly Simon, John Forte and her sister Ashlee Simpson-Wentz.

Secondly is THE VANCOUVER 2010 - STORIES OF OLYMPIC GLORY documentary which is the first of its kind. Stories include the opening ceremonies, China's figure skaters Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo, Russia's figure skater Yevgeni Pluschenko, and America's skaters Apolo Ohno and Evan Lysacek.

Can't wait to get set up in my home too. I am planning a 3DTV system soon and I will keep you guys in the loop as to why and what I selected.
