Since John Lasseter is now in charge of Disney animation and he's a huge believer in 3D movies, Disney will be releasing pretty much all of their movies in the format over the next few years. I'm optimistic for this - I've only ever seen one film at the cinema in 3D and it was very gimmicky and dull. However, I have been informed that the technology is being used to enhance the movie instead of showing off what they can do. Some of their future releases will undoubtedly look amazing in 3D. I'm thinking primarily of Pixar's upcoming work (Up, the Toy Story films, Cars 2, The Bear and the Bow, Newt), Disney's animation (I'm most excited about Rapunzel with it's oil painting style animation and the amazing Kristen Chenoweth in the lead), the re-release of Beauty and the Beast (that ballroom scene will be worth the price of admission alone) and Alice in Wonderland (with a cast like that how can I not get excited? Stephen Fry's in it, for god's sake!) If only they could bring the cost of the showings down.Sunday, 12 April 2009
Disney and the fancy magic glasses.

Beauty and the Beast in 3D?
Well, that's... interesting.
Alice in Wonderland! Hmmm...
If they ever bring Robin Hood out in 3D I will cry. :(
I'm half excited, half sceptical. I think that some of the films would really suit 3d...but some of them seem to be just a lil' gimmicky...3d for the sake of it. one film I AM looking forward to is coraline, which'll be released in 3d too. It looks quite good, and the 3d aspect should make it amazing :D
and I KNOW, I'm so looking forward to burton's alice in wonderland too. Except I do feel that michael sheen should have been the chesire cat as originally planned - he has the smile! then again, I do want stephen fry to be in it, so I don't mind that much. I especially love that they've got characters from both wonderland and the looking glass - hopefully it means it'll be quite closer to the books!
sorry, gone on a bit. But I do love Alice in Wonderland :D xxx
