3D PANEL DISCUSSION

3D, even in the latest flatish format, brings more revenue than the same films in 2D, well, at least until the novelty wears off. Having compared 2D with mainstream 3D and IMAX 3D, I came to conclusion that even the worst 3D is much more fun than 2D but the IMAX films are still the best. Basically mainstream films show you depth from the screen distance towards the screen depth while IMAX brings the picture out to the viewer. It's said to be just a creative decision how to shoot.

DEEP SEA 3D

Watchable. The squids are brilliant, the rest less so, a bit monotonous, like watching an aquarium.

THE UNINVITED

Watchable. The horror bits are naff but the story in the material world is gripping.

OBSERVE AND REPORT

Watchable. It's not funny but the sad story of a security guard whose life went downhill was compelling.
