Product Description

Product Description

Walt Disney Pictures and James Cameron, the Academy Award(R)-winning director of TITANIC (1997), present the groundbreaking cinematic achievement GHOSTS OF THE ABYSS. Joined by his personal friend Bill Paxton (TITANIC) and a team of the world's foremost historical and marine experts, Cameron journeys back to the site of his greatest inspiration -- the legendary wreck of the TITANIC. During the voyage, you will explore inside the entire ship, deck by deck, room by room, encountering mysteries that have remained hidden for almost a century. Revolutionary underwater robots were designed and built solely for the purpose of allowing the explorers to peer deep into the remains of the once-great ship and bring those surreal and haunting images back to the surface world. Loaded with unseen footage, revealing interviews, and innovative DVD bonuses, this unprecedented motion picture event is a must-own companion for anyone who loves TITANIC.

Additional Features

This DVD delivers two versions of James Cameron's entertaining documentary, neither of which is the IMAX 3-D version that played in theaters. The 61-minute version is the same as the IMAX edition, just without the 3-D effect; one must assume, however, that everyone will--and should--watch the new 92-minute version. It expands on several scenes and adds new scenes on the Titanic's captain, the animal life found at the wreck site, and life aboard the research vehicle Keldysh. The half-hour "Reflections from the Deep" is part making-of, part extra scenes with interesting segments on how mosaics were used for the brilliant underwater photography, the Keldysh's "Zodiac Cowboys," and the near-human connection to the remote cameras (named Elwood and Jake). You can choose one of six camera angles for the deft "The ROV Experience" that takes about 10 minutes of highlights from one dive. --Doug Thomas

An amazing film. It's unbelievable that after so many years much of the lead glass windows remains in tact. You'll recognize a few from the movie Titanic, notably Bill Paxton. I would have liked it to be longer.

    This item arrived quickly Via Amazon prime.

    The picture quality of this Blu-ray is tremendous. While the footage captured by the ROV's is obviously low-end video, everything that was shot with film cameras both above and below the waterline looks absolutely fantastic. On a large screen television and with this level of detail, it is by far the clearest I have ever seen the ship itself, and an unbelievable viewing experience.

    I cannot comment on the 3D disc, as I do not have a 3D Blu-ray player. I found no issues with the audio. Everything sounded perfectly clear. There are two different versions of the film included on the disc. The first is the theatrical edition which I believe runs around 60 minutes. The second is the extended version which runs slightly over 90 minutes, as I recall. I never noticed any footage included in the extended version that felt unnecessary or uninteresting, and I would definitely say it is the preferable version to watch.

    The only negative aspect of the film I could personally find was the forced acting in certain instances. As this is supposed to feel like a documentary, and it is indeed filmed like one, to have individuals (who are supposed to be acting like themselves) giving obviously written and rehearsed dialogue and situations, adds a bit of cheesiness and detracts from the authenticity of the experience at times and in ways that it shouldn't.

    All in all, it's still an immense experience. As a Blu-ray, it's absolutely fantastic. As a Titanic experience, it's immense. The DVD version I was used to simply fails to do justice to the Blu-ray version of this film. As a person who is a Titanic enthusiast, I definitely recommend picking up your copy of this as they are getting more difficult to find, and even more expensive. This is the closest you can get to the real thing without actually being there. If you get the opportunity to see this on Blu-ray and on a large screen, don't hesitate. For me, the experience was worth every penny.

    I first came across this work when it was showing at the IMax theaters in Southern California. It is very interesting to all ages because of the technology and how it was accomplished several hundred feet below the ocean.

    I wanted a video because I wanted my 8 year old Granddaughter to be able to see what I saw when I attended the movie in 2004.

    What is left of the Titanic has been eaten away through the years of being at the bottom of the ocean. However, we were able to see some hats and items left on dressers in the various state rooms that had an open door.
    Ghosts of the Abyss

    Two men designed and built what they called "BOTS", small crafts that carry 1 or 2 people lying down with a trailing lifeline. These Bots could then travel through the ship viewing what is left in certain areas.

    The colors of the ocean down deep are truly beautiful and the detail is explained very carefully by the voices of the two men as they go down into the deep and enter the ship.

    I recommend this video because of the tremendous information that is shown starting with when the ship left the port in England and traveled to Ireland then across the ocean to where it sunk after hitting the large chunk of ice.

    This film was masterfully, and respectfully created. What an extraordinary journal to have for the future, and to see and still appreciate the elegantly crafted works on this ship. To pair it with how life may have been lived before the tragedy was a touching tribute. To pay homage to the silent and selfless ones who knew that they would not live was done so meaningfully. Thank you to all who were involved in this beautiful tribute to this incredible ship and to the people who lived and died on that fateful night.

    I have the Blue Ray 3D Movie Disc Set, Titanic. It was remarkable, so when I saw this on 3D Documentary and at a reasonable price, I had to have it. I was not disappointed at all. It says continues where the Movie Titanic let's off. That is putting it mildly in my opinion.
    Director, James Cameron did an excellent job with this production. The colors are brilliant, the 3D is real and protrude out the TV into your room. It gives you the experience of actually being present in and outside the Titanic, both then and now. James Cameron has made it even more realistic for you with special effects, such as morphing from the ruins back and forth to what it looked like inside and out before that terrible disaster. He also applied special effects by inserting passengers and crew ghost, through out the ship. You actually are emerged into the Titanic. I say again my family and I were very impressed. I recommend this Set to all.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, but didn't really meet my expectations.

    I purchased "Ghosts of the Abyss" from Amazon Instant Video shortly after I watched my new, 4K restored Blu-ray version of the 1997 movie "Titanic." As I began viewing "Ghosts of the Abyss," I was hoping to see a documentary about the actual exploration of the "Titanic" shipwreck. That is "kinda-sorta" what I saw, although not in the way I hoped. "Ghosts of the Abyss" seemed to me to be more of a travelogue to the "Titanic" site hosted by movie actor Bill Paxton, who had a starring role in the film. To me, Paxton seemed more interested in showing off his personal experiences as a member of the dive team than in discussing the exploration of the "Titanic."

    "Ghosts of the Abyss" is nevertheless an enjoyable viewing experience. Just don't expect to glean a lot of scientific information from it. Recommended.

    Unreal 3-D footage. It was filmed using actual 3-D cameras not converted over to 3-D with editing afterwards. As a massive Titanic fanatic I would recommend this %120. It is a little short but that makes you wanna go back and watch it again so its not too bad. Watching Bill Paxton have a panic attack going down to the bottom of the atlantic is pretty hilarious as well. 200 thumbs up!
