The Walt Disney Studios announced plans to start releasing 3D content for the home on Blu-ray Disc beginning in 2010 with “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” and a special 3D Showcase Disc.
The 3D-enabled Blu-ray release of “Disney’s A Christmas Carol,” available broadly in fourth quarter of 2010, will represent the studio’s debut title that will launch a new line-up of Disney 3D movies for the home.
The new 3D Showcase Disc is now available for manufacturers to start placing orders so they may bundle with their 3D hardware. It is a compilation of upcoming 3D product, footage and promotional trailers including but not limited to: Walt Disney’s 1953 animated short “Working for Peanuts,” promotional trailers of upcoming 3D-enabled Blu-ray releases like “Disney’s A Christmas Carol,” “Alice in Wonderland” and Disney/Pixar’s “Toy Story 3” plus original content created for this disc.
Disney’s 3D content for the home on Blu-ray will be made available in coordination with hardware manufacturers’ upcoming release of 3D home entertainment systems.
