Sources disagree on whether John Carter (2012) was shot in stereo or converted.

The only way to watch it in 3D is the Blu-ray 3D, and that is out of print.

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.

Provenance
Hybrid Shot in stereo, converted afterwards, or a mix of the two.

Lost in our world, found in another.

John Carter is a war-weary, former military captain who's inexplicably transported to the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars) and reluctantly becomes embroiled in an epic conflict. It's a world on the brink of collapse, and Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.
