Two sources, two answers

This catalogue publishes the disagreement rather than choosing between them. Both are sourced and linked; the reader decides, or nobody does until a third source settles it.

Apple publishes no 3D flag, so this row says the film is sold here, not that the 3D version is.

A Blu-ray 3D of this film exists. Which pressing it is — the label, the barcode, whether it is still made — has not been catalogued here yet, so there is no edition above to send you to.

Earliest recorded disc release . The source names the film by title alone, so this row is matched rather than confirmed.

How the 3D was made

The thinnest part of the record

How a film reached the screen in stereo is the part of this record that matters most, and it is the part that is thinnest. What is missing keeps its row rather than being dropped, so you can see where the record stops.

Prepare for a giant adventure

The story of an ancient war that is reignited when a young farmhand unwittingly opens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack into the battle of his life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend–and gets the chance to become a legend himself.
