Avatar was an amazing movie experience. It was a pretty lame movie.
Similarly Alice in Wonderland is all sorts of crazy. Take away one key aspect of it, however, and it's just plain crazy.
The Internet, cell phones, computers, twirl-a-squirrel, jet packs, 3D movies; they've all changed the world from childhood, but only 3D cinema has been revolutionary. (And only 3D cinema has given me vertigo while also making me slightly queasy in the first few minutes -- but that is neither here nor there.) Science has brought about much progress, but in just about every way it has been gradual and so imperceptible. Not so with 3D. One day two, the next day three. Without a 2.5D intermediate step there is no gradation, no adaptation, and no ambivalence. Movies are brought to life, unoriginal plot lines and unremarkable dialogue are overlooked, and flat things become not so flat things all with the simple donning of glasses. Even painfully stereotyped characters and blue people are forgivable in 3D. There is no sin too great when committed in a technicolor background that pops out at you. If 3D were a person, I'd merry it. Maybe even have a little 3D family.
Anyways, I love 3D and regular D movies now disgust me. I gather if Obama had presented health care reform in 3D it'd be passed by now.
