Dang. :-( A whole year for 3-D? Man, does that mean it'll be one of those deals where it's practically 3-D or nothin? I don't mind too much, since ticket prices around here are about $5.50 normal and $7.50 or $8.50 3-D(can't remember which), but that extra dimension doesn't do much for me.

Well that's one more movie on the list for next year. And I guess there will be less competition in March for the film, but it still seems, I don't know, stupid.

Paramount wasn't confident in the first Joe either, they didn't do any press screenings in LA prior to release. Probably not anywhere else either.

This delay is kind of bizarre since the director for Joe 2 was picked because he had experience shooting in 3D with the Step Up movie and/or Justin Bieber film. Thus, one would think the 3D plans, whether it be shot in 3D or postconverted, would be set. Par must be afraid of the competition. This doesn't make sense, but when does Paramount ever make sense? Brad Grey and Brian Goldner, I hope you're reading.

That's so stupid. Half the time, 3D doesn't even enhance the movie in any way.

This has caused quite an uproar all over the net, and more importantly stores that have preordered move mechandise that has been pushed back for 9 months. I have a strong feeling that we could see this "postone" reversed for that reason alone.

That won't happen. Apparently the movie wasn't testing well and they're shooting new scenes; namely working a way in that Duke survives the desert ambush.

It's not like it's going to be a good movie or anything. Also you guys are correct about 3D. Rarely does it accualty look good. Dark of the Moon was a rip off in 3D. I saw it twice in the theature once in 3D and once in 2D and it was almost 100% the same.

It's not a spoiler, it's in the trailers and not a major part to the story, or at least it was.
