  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Is 3D Already Dying?

Favreau told the crowd that he wanted to do a straight up John Ford-esque Western with old school sci-fi elements reminscent of films like Close Encounters of the Third Kind. He also insitigated a monstrous cheer from the crowd when he announced the film wouldn't be in 3D. A sign of what's to come? Perhaps

Actually the cheer came up when he said he wouldn't do a 2D to 3D conversion. He also said that he was shooting film to not have that digital look. It looks like it's going to be a good film by the way. At least the short segment was. It has a unique concept of genre blending with some very talented people working on it.

That's a lot different.

I think the correct take is that 3D will be a genre thing. I personally think it's best suited to CG at the moment. Pandora was the interesting 3D in Avatar for me. I didn't like the non CG 3D stuff much.

The 2D version of that movie is gorgeous.
 
hmm,
I think that trying to apply 3D for the sake of 3D (or the hope that 3D popularity will drive sales) is a lost cause. 3D films, on a case by case basis, will blow us away as 3D enhances the story and propels us on the journey through it.

As for headaches - they will get worse - as consumer 3D cameras come out and every joe blog starts posting them.

As for the 3D TVs - I would love to see something closer to a 3rd person 3D virtual reality interface - almost totally immersive. but that might require some form of headset - bigger than glasses (unless you get implants) - lol, there I go all cyberpunk, sorry.
 
it's a Hollywood swindle! :tongue:
