Yeah it would be nice to get Movies Anywhere or something fully on board. All the movie studios are sitting on 3D movies already, they just need to make the app(s).
I think I'd like more engagement though to really commit. Be able to turn my head and see more of the scene. Stand up and view a slightly different angle.
All of the tech exists to make this possible, I just don't know if filmmaking can work that into the mix.
It sorta partially is. On Apple’s movie store you get the 3D version with the HD/4K version. So if your movies anywhere unlocks the HD/4K it should unlock the 3D too. As long as the publisher has put the 3D version up there. And many did as a result of the Vision Pro.
I have a bunch of 3D movies available on my Vision Pro, and I’ve never specifically bought one in 3D. Many came from digital codes.
Apple has the largest collection of 3D movies right now.
The thing is, new content with proper 3D isn’t being made much these days. I’d estimate Apple has the bulk of what exists available already.
