Field Sequential 3-D: When?


I am lucky enough to own quite a few of the IMAX released 3D movies. 'Haunted Castle', 'Alien Adventure', 'SOS Planet' and 'Ultimate Gs' being most worthy of note. These, and others, have been released in the field sequential(shutterglass) system to approximate an as near-theatrical 3-D experience in your own home. Red-green glasses do not give anywhere near the same type of realism.

Now to my question. Does anyone know when this movie will be released in the field sequential DVD format? So far all we have is a flat copy, hence no depth which, to my mind, is unforgivable, especially considering the subject matter: SPACE!

I'm afraid that the answer will be that field sequential has such a limited audience potential that it won't be worth bringing out such a version. But if that is to be the answer then can they explain why such films as 'The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lavagirl' and 'Spy Kids 3: Game Over' have both been officially released in field sequential 3-D? After all, let's face it, although the 3-D in both were exceptional, both stories left a lot to be desired(not that that stopped me from buying them when the shutterglass versions arrived on DVD).

Please, can someone give me some good news about the eventual 3-D release of this movie?

John.
