3D Movies Create New 3D Market

It seems many people are getting quite used to seeing 3D in the mainstream.  What cracks me up is that this younger generation of kids are not completely amazed by the 3D movement as I am — seems that because they grew up with xbox360’s and Wii’s and the like, they’re already fully prepared for this advance in entertainment television.  Check out this article about the proliferation of 3D into the mainstream…

The 3D phenomenon isn’t just something being discussed in theory at trade shows like ShoWest, since its practical uses have already had an impact with moviegoers. Last year, Robert Zemeckis’ animated epic Beowulf made much from its money from the theaters that were able to screen it in 3D, because there were a lot of moviegoers who wanted to see the adventure in that format and were ready to pay more money to do so. This year, there have already been 3D concert films from two of the biggest touring acts, with Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: The Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour setting a new per-theater average record when it opened in early February. James Cameron’s next movie Avatar, his first dramatic feature since Titanic over ten years ago scheduled for release in December 2009, is being filmed entirely using similar 3D technology as “Journey.”
