Anyone watched Jurassic Park 3D, or Imax 3D?

I remember it was pretty scary back when it was in 2D, so are there alot of 3D scenes? Was the experience good?
 
The 3D was actually well done, in my opinion. Several people who typically despise 3D even admitted that it was a fun experience seeing it this way.
 
For me, the 3D wasn't bad, but wasn't great. It added almost nothing. But for a post-conversion, this is usually the best I hope for.

But it was worth it to see JP on IMAX, which was a fantastic experience.
 
Defiantly worth seeing it in IMAX!

I saw it once or twice as a kid, but I didn't remember much, so it was like watching a brand new movie.

I jumped out of my seat a couple of times too. :lol
 
I thought the 3D worked well for JP ... almost as if it were shot for 3D. Took my 5yo son to see it a few months back.

I think its related to how Spielberg shot the movie. He said he originally shot it to be "immersive" -- wanting the audience to feel like they were in the movie -- so most of the movie was shot from eye level, and with things in the foreground. Also, a surprising number of shots where things were lunging directly at the camera.

All of that translated really well to 3D. Since it was supposed to be immersive in 1993 ... the 3D made complete sense in 2013.

I saw Jurassic Park in IMAX 3D today. Twenty years after I first saw it in the cinema, I must say it was like seeing it for the first time all over again. The post 3D conversion was way better than most of today's post converted rubbish and the picture and sound was incredible.

The T-Rex attack was amazing on the IMAX screen, the Rex looked huge.
 
I wanted to go see it in theater but I passed on it :(

I wish we could get a good quality representation of the female from JP1.
 
Supposedly the 3D Blu-ray has quite a bit of DNR, but since I didn't notice it, I guess that's a win!
 
The 3D Blu-Ray looks pretty fantastic. Probably the best case of 3D conversion I've seen. They should have had the same people doing the Star Wars Episode I conversion that did this. There were a lot of cases where they added 3D to elements I didn't think they'd spend the time on. Like they rendered out 3D refraction on stuff like glasses. Really great job.
