3D Movies

CinemaThe first big Hollywood 3D movie was back in 1953 when ‘The Man in the Dark’ was released.

It was apparently an underwhelming experience and wasn’t a great movie, but that 57 years ago so just how have things changed?

When Avatar hit our screens in December 2009 it had amazing reviews and for some it was the beginning of an epic genre of film making. Since then it seems as though every film coming out is in 3D but is the craze losing the interest of people?

Research shows signs that the 3D is struggling to keep up the numbers and after the Box Office breaker Avatar hit revenue high of 71% in 2009, films like Piranha featuring a certain Miss Kelly Brook have failed to generate the same hype and have recently struggled to pass production budgets.

Of course it’s unfair to compare these movies and the next ‘big thing’ could be just round the corner while turning the fortunes of 3D movie makers around.

There are also issues about 3D movies not having enough content or enough of a storyline, some people are scared that the younger generation will be losing out on amazing story lines and will not want to watch anything but 3D.

Is 3D just a reoccurring theme that will eventually fade away and come back again in 10 – 20 years and try again? Who knows, only time will tell…
