Once you have all of your 3D equipment, you can find lots of 3D movies and features on DISH on channels 1 or 501. Here are some titles that are currently showing.

IMAX Born to be Wild 3D


Born to be Wild 3D is an inspired story of love, dedication and the remarkable bond between humans and animals. This film documents orphaned orangutans and elephants and the extraordinary people who rescue and raise them—saving endangered species one life at a time. Stunningly captured in IMAX 3D, Born to be Wild 3D is a heartwarming adventure transporting moviegoers into the lush rainforests of Borneo with world-renowned primatologist Dr. Birute Galdikas, and across the rugged Kenyan savannah with celebrated elephant authority Dame Daphne Sheldrick, as they and their team rescue, rehabilitate and return these incredible animals back to the wild. Narrated by Academy-Award® winner Morgan Freeman, Born to be Wild 3D is directed by David Lickley and written and produced by Drew Fellman.

Wrath of the Titans


Sam Worthington, Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson star once again as gods at war in “Wrath of the Titans”, under the direction of Johnathan Liebesman. A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kaken, Perseus (Worthington) the demigod son of Zeus (Neeson) is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity’s lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades (Fiennes) and Poseidon (Danny Huston). The triumvirate had overthrown their powerful father long ago, leaving him to rot in the gloomy abyss of Tartarus, a dungeon that lies deep within the cavernous underworld. Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades along with Zeus’ godly son, Ares (Edgar Ramrez), switch loyalties and make a deal, with kronos to capture Zeus. The Titans’ strength grows stronger as Zeus’ remaining godly powers are siphoned, and hell is unleashed on earth. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon’s demigod son, Argenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen gob Hephaestus (Bill Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

The Vow: Coming to DISH Cinema 5/8

May 7th, 2012

Newlyweds Leo, Channing Tatum, and Paige, Rachel McAdams, are involved in a car accident that robs Paige of her memories of their courtship and wedding. Paige is torn between the family she remembers but seemed to have grown away from and the husband she sees as a stranger. Tatum delivers a dramatic and heartwarming performance as the husband who struggles to regain his wife, and McAdams matches his passion and sincerity.

The Vow is a decent movie about true love, it’s satisfying without being overwhelming. Though it’s not quite in the same league as McAdam’s The Notebook, easily the best romantic movie of the last decade and so far of this century, it’s still a pleasant romp and McAdam’s acting chops and Tatum’s comedic quips are sure to please.

The Vow will be showing on DISH Cinema starting May, 8th.
