Hollywood Does It Again

And again.
It’s not just 3-D but re-releases of popular titles in 3-D.  Disney is leading the way with 3-D upgrades of several popular animated titles, including last weekend’s release of Beauty and the Beast in 3-D.  Also to follow this year is a 3-D release of Pixar’s Finding Nemo.

Fans will also get to venture to a galaxy far, far away in 3-D when the upgraded Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace hits theaters next month.

Director James Cameron’s Titanic, which ruled the world as the most successful film ever when it was released in 1997, returns April 6, and Pixar’s Finding Nemo from 2003 follows on Sept. 14.

As usual, Cameron is enthusiastic about the new technology and his use of it. ”Even the scene where (Kate Winslet’s) mother puts her corset on her.  In 3-D its mesmerizing,” says Cameron.  ”It brings the rest of the movie up to the big sweeping thing you remember. The intimacy is accented.”
A) James Cameron, just shut up!

B) The movie industry is about to reduce, reuse & recycle itself to death.

following in the footsteps of the music industrial-complex, who are paragons of idiotic decision-making.
