More on the coming wave of 3D movies

It gets into the technical process a bit. Sounds interesting, it's not the red/blue or prismatic glasses process, I'm intrigued to see what the end product looks like.

Absolute agreement. I'm intrigued by the process, but not terribly keen on the end product.

And there's one basic underlying truth that going to 3D doesn't address -- Hollywood can't make good movies in 2D right now, how will 3D improve this? ;-)

Have you been to the Diney parks? Seen Captain EO or the current Muppets thing? That's what it looks like, and it's okay. Just okay, not really mind blowing and it doesn't change the world as we understand it.

Also, yeah, crap movies are still crap even when they're in 3D

Never saw Eo. I did see a Terminator in 3D at Universal Studios in Orlando, IIRC. Probably the same thing.
