3D Movies available on HBO On Demand through Xfinity

I came across an article this morning about HBO making a few 3D movies available On Demand.  When I got home tonight I checked it out and low and behold there is a new menu selection in HBO section with three movies available



 The three movies they are making available are Coraline, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs and Monsters vs. Aliens.  All seem to be kids movies but it is interesting that HBO is jumping out there and making content available.  I am still not buying into 3D really catching on but content providers are definitely making an investment.  It will be interesting to monitor the movies they make available to see if the number of selection increase over time.

Showtime Free Preview

This coming weekend January, 7 2011 through January 10, 2011 Xfinity will be having a Showtime free preview.  Based on the Showtime website it looks like this free preview will include all Showtime channels as well as On Demand Content.  I used to subscribe to Showtime but switched to HBO a while back.  Based on the content on the Showtime website they seem ti have a much better movie selection than HBO.  Looking forward to checking it out this weekend.
