Katzenberg Touts 3-D Movies - Noooo!
“I think in a reasonable period of time, all movies are going to be made in 3-D,” said Dreamworks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg at an event earlier today.
“When the audience experiences this and sees how exceptional it is, and the filmmakers understand how much greater an experience they can offer their audience and they can have as a filmmaking tool, I think 2-D films are going to be a thing of the past.”
This just makes me weary to think about. I’m not at all crazy about 3-D movies, and the idea of them becoming more commonplace is discouraging. What next? Implant a 3-D chip in our eyes so we don’t need the cardboard glasses?
More after the jump…
At the first live transatlantic telecast in high-def digital 3-D, Katzenberg spoke from the DreamWorks Animation campus in Glendale to an estimated 1,000 delegates — all wearing 3-D glasses — at the International Broadcasting Convention in Amsterdam.
And about the glasses, he says there are indeed changes ahead. “They’re about to introduce a transition lens where when you go outside its your sunglasses, and when you go into the movie theater it transitions into 3-D glasses. People are going to own their own glasses. I think from a fashion standpoint and a coolness standpoint, people will want to have their own glasses.”
No! No! No! No more 3D!
