question about the new Thor film

[lazarus]

it's in "Real 3D", whatever that means.

Actually, what does that mean? Is it filmed in 3D, like Avatar, or is the 3D put in post-production, like all those terrible movies that suck?

1. I believe it is being created to be in 3D not just made 3D later

PS this movie is gonna be off the hook! as the old people think the young people say. :rofl:

4. i think it is currently "the bee's knees" and/or "groovy".

5. well James Cameron made the silly comment

that all Hollywood films would be 3D in 5 yrs. I'd imagine they'd face a lawsuit for anyone with glasses.

6. It is converted

I don't know where some of these people are getting their info, but Thor was shot in 2-d and has been converted to 3-d.

7. Apparently it's "Real D 3D"

I've also seen it advertised in IMAX 3D
There are a bunch of different kinds of "IMAX"
some are a lot better than others.

8. according to Wiki

it was filmed flat. Poop. I was looking forward to seeing it in IMAX, but I'm not wasting money on a converted film.

Post-production conversions to 3D will kill the 3D market, IMO.
