3D

Saw yesterday Titanic now in 3D coming to a theatre near you.
I was doubtful about the leap to 3D since the movie was never shot for it with all the special cameras and such. But I was told Cameron himself was on board.
Yeah, right.
In the end the 3 D version is much like the traditionnal one but a bit darky thanks to the glasses, the 3D effects are barely visible (the best is in the submarine where it is supposed to have the less depth...Pun intended).
And the poor movie has its then state-of-the-art effects looking a bit outdated nowadays. But it was a nice screening anyway but it still makes me wonder why we keep on putting in 3D movies (old one or new ones) keep making the people pay for more( even if now the stuff movie theatres owners are supposed to be paid for nowadays.)
I don't know if it is me or not, but half the time, you get 3D for 5 minutes tops of a movie plus the whole subtitles.
Cameron was proud to make a movie evolution with Avatar but I really feel it was an useless one...
