Most of you know now that Cameron’s Avatar has crowned the filmmaker once again with the Worlds highest grossing movie of all time earning a whopping 3 billion dollars at te box office. While this position has contributed greatly to the traction 3D cinema currently spellbinding entertainment consumers, there is on glaring drawback in Mr. Cameron’s opinion, companies jumping on the 3D bandwagon and putting out horrible conversions.

Movies like Clash of the Titans andThe Last Airbender were shot in traditional 2D and converted into 3D after seeing Avatar’s success.

“I think it’s horrible and absolutely the wrong way to go,” Cameron said before the re-release of Avatar in 3D with added footage.

“I think it’s a quick, knee-jerk reaction to seeing the gold rush happen and the studios just wanted to jump in on it and that’s the only way they could do it. It’s the studio making the decision and then handing it over to some company to process it through a sausage grinder and come up with some kind of faux 3D, or a 2 1/2D mess,” he added.

The interesting footnote is he plans on re-releasing 1997’s Titanic in a 3D redux. Cameron fully admits that the conversion will be a “2.9D”, but goes on to add, “We won’t succeed. It will wind up being 2.9D, but it will still be .9 better than the 2D we released before. These other slapdash conversions, where they are not spending the time and money and not involving the filmmaker, are like 2.2D,” The Herald Sun quoted the 55-year-old filmmaker as saying.

3DGuy asks the question: Why aren’t the studios putting 3D trailers on the web for 3D Movies????

We think that they should and so do a lot of our viewers. So, we aren’t doing this for money. We want to encourage the studios to do the 3D thing! If you agree with us then leave a comment!

Put on your 3D glasses now and enjoy this 3D movie trailer brought to you by 3DGuy.Watch it here!

In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon. (Yes, the moon!) Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad. The world’s greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.

Will Smith is back as Jay for the newest installment of Men in Black. This time they guys take on a new dimension-3D. There is no official word on Tommy Lee Jones as Agent Kay, but the deal in in negotiations at press time. But don’t get too excited Columbia Pictures has set a release date of  May 25, 2012. Director Barry Sonnenfeld is on board and Josh Brolin will join the cast. On the MTV Splash page, Brolin was quoted, ”It looks really, really good, I can’t tell you the story, obviously, but they pitched me the general story, and I was like, ‘Eh, I don’t know if that’s really my thing, man.’” “I was extremely grateful that they were even interested in me,” he said. “But then they got more specific with the story, and I go, ‘Yes, that’s f—ing great!’ This is a character where I feel like I can do some actual acting work within this franchise that everybody knows.” The full story hasn’t been revealed but what is known is that the film will have Agent Jay traveling back in time to 1969 where James Brolin will play a young version of Agent Kay. The MIB3 producers will be Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald and Steven Spielberg will be executive producer. Rick Baker will be on hand to design and build the creatures and Ethan Cohen wrote the script. Based on the Lowell Cunningham comic book, the 1997 original grossed $589 million worldwide, and the sequel in 2002 brought in $442 million in worldwide ticket sales. The two films are some of the biggest earners on Columbia’s all-time gross chart, and the prospect of making an installment that captures the otherworldly creatures in 3D should ensure another blockbuster.

The Art Institutes, claimed as America’s leader in creative education, published an article in the first week of 2010 entitled, “3D Breathes New Life Into Classic Stories”. Aside from Josh Gridley of Sony Pictures Imageworks, they got the chance to interview the 3DGuy, Al Caudullo, to acquire more of a professional’s view on 3D and the 3D bandwagon.

Below are excerpts from Ai’s 3D Breathes New Life Into Classic Stories.

According to Al Caudullo, executive producer of high-definition and 3D media company Explore Media Group, 3D has the ability to draw audience members deeper into the story… Read the rest of this entry »

2D vs 3D what is in store and where are we going? What usually starts out as a friendly discussion can easily turn into a venom spewing argument about what’s better, what sells more, and if the 2d era is still relevant. It seems Mr. Miyamoto, someone who’s made his fair share of both 2d and 3d titles, weighed in on a similar discussion in the latest Nintendo Power.  Miyamoto thinks that not everything needs to be 3d while conceding that there are huge benefits to it. On the the 2d front, he says these games should focus on fun and gameplay and not worry too much about visual experience. What he says could be misconstrued to mean 2d games look like a pile of brownie mix, but on second thought you can take it to mean sometimes 2d games try too hard to be like 3d games and lose focus on the important aspect (i.e. FUN).  This couldn’t be more true as New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a blast to play and doesn’t require too much skill to just pop in and have some fun . 2D gaming is far from being over although it’s fears are valid with the new breed of 3D games and gamers it is a great lesson in sustainability and weathering time. Lets just keep it fun and play nice there is room for 2D and 3D. Right? Source: http://mmomfg.com

As everyone is aware, 3D cinema has rapidly established itself in the Hollywood limelight as the decade draws to an end. This year has possibly being the most eventful year in 3D audience’s history, over the past eleven months brand new invigorating news is released on a daily basis which leaves technological consumers in awe. At this moment in time cinema screens are filled with 3D films, advertisements are now literally jumping out of the screen at audiences, laptops with 3D capabilities allow gamers to be completely emerged in their virtual world and now television audiences are invited into the three dimensional experience. Channel 4, a British television station has recently brought UK audiences a full week of 3D television programming and it was received with open arms. Although the 3D technology has had a tendency to re-appear then disappear just as quickly, the modern advancements in electronic technology are sure to see the three dimensional ‘gimmick’ becoming a permanent fixture in a television consumer’s life.  In 2010 many companies are set to release full HD 3D television sets into the market, as well seeing popular gaming consoles being updated to bring the 3D experience into the console gaming world. As well as the technology improving, television broadcasters are also constantly in talks over potential future 3D programming. Most recently the 2010 FIFA World Cup has been said to aim for at least 50% of its games to be aired in HD 3D, whilst the director of the London 2012 Olympic games aims to bring the global event to audiences in this new exciting way. As well as individual events being discussed about airing in 3D, ‘SKY’ television has taken the process a step further by stating that they would launch the United Kingdom’s first ever 3D channel by the end of 2010. After hearing of all the upcoming releases and plans, and by reviewing Hollywood’s intended output, the future is certainly set for a surge of ‘in your face’, three dimensional experiences which will not fade away quite as easily as before.

3D in the sense of capturing reality in real time manipulating it and generating incredible motion pictures plucked from time and space. MIT has Created the ultimate in  Computer based illustration  a  uniquely design paint brush specially made for children bust the possibilities are endless. The I/O Brush is a new drawing tool to explore colors, textures, and movements found in everyday materials by “picking up” and drawing with them literally. I/O Brush looks like a regular physical paintbrush but has a small video camera with lights and touch sensors embedded inside. Outside of the drawing canvas, the brush can pick up color, texture, and movement of a brushed surface. On the canvas, artists can draw with the special “ink” they just picked up from their immediate environment. Just running the brush over any surface, object, animal, vegetable, or mineral it as you have turned the world in to you palette you can even use moving objects.

There are many paint/drawing programs on the market today that are designed especially for kids. These let kids do neat things, but kids usually end up playing only with the “preprogrammed” digital palette the software provides. The idea of I/O Brush is to let the kids build their own ink. They can take any colors, textures, and movements they want to experiment with from their own environment and paint with their personal and unique ink. Kids are not only exploring through construction of their personal art project, but they are also exploring through construction of their own tools (i.e., the palette/ink) to build their art project with.

Hollywood is turning just about everything into a movie, from board games to game shows? Whats next Double Dare?  The Dating Game or Fear Factor. Imagine Brad Pitt Eating Earthworms. We have already seen Who wants to be a millionaire portrayed on the big screen in”Slumdog Millionaire”, and now one of the producers of “300″ is bringing us “American Gladiators” in 3D no less. Scott Mednick, also an executive producer of this fall’s “Where the Wild Things Are,” has hired “Point Break” screenwriter Peter Iliff to script the previously announced adaptation of the physical competition series as a movie that, Variety says, will “feature the Herculean characters as superheroes.” The contenders have yet to be names but It would certainly be appropriate to have amateur athletes as the contenders to be true to the format of the show, which involved everyday contenders battling the gigantic male and female Gladiators for a shot at $100,000 and a car. “American Gladiators” was a hit in the ’90s and then revamped for a short-lived redo last year. The fact that the recent version wasn’t as successful can now only be explained by the fact that it wasn’t big and in-your-face enough. Apparently, as /Film noticed, the movie version will be in 3-D, since IMDb lists “U2 3D” producers 3ality Digital as handling the adaptation’s special effects. If you’re excited to see pugil sticks and sling-shot humans coming at you in 3-D, you’ll likely also be happy to know the “Jackass” franchise will allegedly be continued in a third movie, this one in three dimensions as well. Cinematical writer William Goss noticed the “Jackass 3-D” title in an e-mail detailing Paramount’s 2010 slate. In what may be the most logical utilization of the new 3-D technology, we’ll be able to see all of the crazy stunts heightened by the format, whether it’s Johnny Knoxville being shot from a catapult or Steve-O’s notoriously weak stomach spewing phantom bile all over the audience. Now if only we can get Smell-O-Vision back for “Jackass 3-D” as well. Okay, so maybe that wouldn’t be such a popular experience, but the 3-D element will fit perfectly. I just hope that between this and the “American Gladiators” film, nobody gets the idea to bring us “America’s Funniest Home Videos 3-D” on the big screen. Then again, “man getting hit in the crotch” in 3-D would be quite hilarious, wouldn’t it? Source: Movieblog.mtv.com
