3D Mania

Last week I took my nephew to see Journey to the Center of the Earth, the new film starring Brendan Fraser. If you love the book, you’ll love the movie. It’s not based on the per, as much as it is centered around the book. It’s an intriguing twist. And, the 3D rocks in this film! I was very impressed. Not only was the movie packed with fun little 3D tricks, like when the toothy fish jump out of the water or smoke swirls off the screen and in front of your face – the rest of scenes also benefitted from the 3D. A simple scene of Fraser sitting in a room talking on the phone had perceivable depth. I enjoyed the 3D the entire time I was watching the movie and when I saw Kit Kitteridge the next day with my daughter, I rather missed it.

Tomorrow night my sister and I are taking my daughter and my nephew to see a promotional screening of Fly Me to the Moon, which also uses 3D technology. I saw a preview of Fly Me to the Moon before Journey and the preview was in 3D, so I can attest to the fact that the effect is used just as skillfully. I’m genuinely excited and hope we can look forward to more film in the near future that will use 3D. Now that technology has come far enough to make 3D look to fantastic, we may as well enjoy it.
