I saw this on the AP wire : "Hollywood took a big step Tuesday toward offering more movies in 3-D, announcing deals to convert as many as 10,000 more theater screens for the digital technology needed to accommodate the resurgent, eye-popping format.
Access Integrated Technologies Inc. said it had reached agreements with four studios — Disney, News Corp.'s 20th Century Fox, Viacom Inc.'s Paramount, and Universal Pictures, which is owned by General Electric Co.'s NBC Universal — to finance and equip the screens in the U.S. and Canada during the next three years."
To which I say, REALLY? Do we REALLY need 3-D movies?
Maybe I am missing something here, but this is where the movies kind of "poke" out at you because you are wearing those stupid looking glasses, right? And it NEVER looks all that real.
Is this something for just kids movies or will adult movies try this too? I can see a Spongebob Squarepants movie being interesting, but The Godfather in 3-D? What would fly at me? Bullets?
I just don't see this. I am too old to go and see a 3-D movie. Maybe I guess if Jurassic Park was in IMax and 3-D, that would have been cool, but Juno in 3-D? Not seeing it.
I do remember the stuff at Epicot and MGM Studios where you put the 3-D glasses on and the room moved and water would mist on you and stuff, that was cool, but would it be cool now? I really don't think so.
I think that if the theaters want to go 3-D for the kids movies, fine, but PLEASE don't ruin Hollywood's dramas by MAKING them incorporate 3-D stuff that won't fit.
But maybe that's what they said about color movies back in the day.
