OXYGENE 30TH ANNIVERSARY (CD & DVD, 3D VERSION)
O Jean Michel Jarre είναι μία από τις σημαντικότερες προσωπικότητες στην ιστορία της ηλεκτρονικής μουσικής. Το ντεμπούτο άλμπουμ του, OXYGENE, το οποίο κυκλοφόρησε πριν από 30 χρόνια, εξέπληξε τον κόσμο όχι μόνο με την avant -garde μουσική του αλλά και με το προκλητικό εξώφυλλό του. Με το OXYGENE η μοναδική μουσική του Jarre έφερε μία καινούργια πνοή καθαρού αέρα στην φαντασία του κοινού και αποτελεί ακόμα και σήμερα σημείο αναφοράς για την σύγχρονη μουσική ιστορία.
Το OXYGENE - Live in your living room είναι ο εορτασμός του Jean Michel Jarre για την 30η επέτειο του super-hit αλμπουμ του και κυκλοφορεί σε 3 format : CD album, CD +DVD και CD + 3D DVD. Το στερεοσκοπικό 3D video με surround ήχο δίνει την μοναδική εντύπωση στον θεατή ότι βρίσκεται δίπλα στον Jarre και τα όργανά του ενώ κάθεται στον καναπέ του σπιτιού του.
Πρόκειται για το πρώτο φιλμ γυρισμένο σε stereoscopic τεχνολογία και αποτελεί το επόμενο γιγαντιαίο βήμα στην οπτικοακουστική ψυχαγωγία.

The upcoming 3-D titles for 2009
2009 is turning out to be a very good year for 3-D film, with 46 feature titles slated for release. So what kinds of movies are these 21st Century 3-D flicks going to be?
11 of the upcoming releases next year are documentaries and IMAX pieces, most of them featuring water, waves, surfers and fish. 10 of the 3-D titles of 2009 are (CGI) animation features about a wide variety of zany subjects and crazy characters. All good fun, then. But what is the mainstay of the Stereoscopic live-action releases? You guessed it: mindless slasher horror pics, 9 of them to be precise.
Perhaps the phoenix re-rise of 3-D coincides with the resurgence of slasher horror, which had a peak of its own in the early 1980’s, which would explain why most of the 3-D films coming up are 3-D horror exploitation titles. No intelligent drama, no rom-coms, but some family films (4), science-fiction (3 titles), action (3 of them, two featuring Hulk Hogan), skin flicks (2) and thriller (2), besides the tween-pleasing musical film (2). Or is this just a representation of the types of 2-D movies out there already? Are we that obsessed as a cinema going audience with people being cut into pieces? Cannibalism Holocaust got it right after all (now that would make for a great 3-D remake)…
The upcoming 3-D titles for 2009:
