The first one that came to mind is The Eiger Sanction, if done right. I think the scope of the mountain and immensity of climbing it might
have been even better captured by wise 3D usage. It was a good movie, and I don't think it needed 3D, but that's the one I thought of first. The only two movies I've seen that I thought benefited significantly from 3D are Avatar (which I did not like overall as a movie) and Hugo (which I loved). It's best used when the director thoughtfully decides to use it as a storytelling aid or enhancement, rather than as a tacked on afterthought to charge a few extra dollars.
Looks like a slow news day, I had an idea for a poll. Name a movie that you think would have had a positive benefit from 3D? Dec 03, 09:21
Avatar Dec 03, 09:22
"Vertigo," "Spellbound." Just kidding. {nm} Dec 03, 09:28
"My dinner with Andre." Also just kidding. Dec 03, 09:28
Sound like a KWIIG routine, just kidding, a KWIIG sketch, just kidding, a KWIIG painting, just kidding. {nm} Dec 03, 10:35
Well, you could do worse. :) But if you told me I could choose between a 3-D film and a film with forward tracking shots... Dec 03, 14:18
None. Am entirely opposed to 3D. Does nothing for me that my mind doesn't do for 2D movies {nm} Dec 03, 09:40
Behind The Green Door {nm} Dec 03, 10:32
The more 3d I see, the less I like it. Miss the old style of stuff comin at you. But, I would go for house of the dead {nm} Dec 03, 09:50
Visual effects weren't the problem. Story was the problem; so if 3-D conversion can re=plot the sequels, go for it. {nm} Dec 03, 14:19
It worked for Avatar and Pirana2... but otherwise. Dumb enhancement. Maybe Inception and Suckerpunch would have benefited ? Dec 03, 10:03
wait... I got a serious one. The ABYSS... That would have been awesome {nm} Dec 03, 11:33
Yes {nm} Dec 03, 11:52
Matrix, Wanted, Watchmen, Speed Racer and Twister. {nm} Dec 03, 10:21
Just a fun fact parts of Twister were filmed about 15 min. from where I grew up. {nm} Dec 03, 11:53

The Blair Witch Project - cause it would have made me vomit and leave the theater even faster. {nm} Dec 03, 11:06
The Shining (nm) Dec 03, 11:10
Matrix and Lord of the Rings... {nm} Dec 03, 11:14
"This is Cinerama" on the roller coaster. {nm} Dec 03, 11:17
Some others that jump to mind from when I was a kid; Ghostbusters or Howard the Duck. {nm} Dec 03, 11:54
It's a guilty pleasure, but I would have loved it in Vertical Limit. {nm} Dec 03, 12:20
Roxeanne with Steve Martin! {nm} Dec 03, 12:50
:) {nm} Dec 04, 08:32
The Shining, Elephant, Casino. {nm} Dec 03, 13:36
Saving Private Ryan. {nm} Dec 03, 13:40
Don't care a lick about 3D. Figure out a way to make 3D work without the stupid glasses and we can talk. {nm} Dec 03, 20:08
I totally agree, but Avatar was awesome. The Nintendo 3Ds is 3D without glasses so maybe we are close to finding a way? Dec 04, 08:37
2001: A Space Odyssey; Koyaanisqatsi; Dark City; Triumph of the Will {nm} Dec 03, 20:15
