Movies

personally, I think 3D will be only used for the tentpoles and major int'l releases

Posted by: ndmaster (a.k.a JonHH) on Mar 06, 14:38 in response to gogreen's post So I guess 3D is here to stay. Next two big ones are...

after the fad settles in (as it has many times before) studios will realize it won't work for smaller pics, and, I assume, the 3D process is pretty expensive. unless all 3D movies are huge successes, then it may be used too much and they will realize later that it doesn't work so well for smaller budget pics.

some game changers that will probably make it stick this time: non piratable, higher revenues, etc.

just some thoughts.

rebuttals?

So I guess 3D is here to stay. Next two big ones are HTRYD and CLASH {nm} gogreen Mar 06, 09:42

HTRYD is tracking for sh*t right now.... and CLASH oddly isn't getting IMAX (cause HTRYD grab them the week before) {nm} secretstalker Mar 06, 09:49

Family films always perform much better than what their trackings indicate {nm} Peterlee Mar 06, 09:56

Thanks for stating the obvious. secretstalker Mar 06, 10:07

Not to newer players it isn't. {nm} Vashta Nerada Mar 06, 14:14

here we go again, another obviously huge flick for you to talk trash on to keep the price low. then youll long it for the adjust. {nm} jnafarrate Mar 06, 10:21

Stating facts isn't "talking trash." I have tracking data for HTRYD. You don't. secretstalker Mar 06, 10:30

OMgz! trackingz! tracking can suck it. just like the tracking did on alice and new moon and fastfurious and ironman and vsday and tdk and jnafarrate Mar 06, 10:58

tracking actually could be helpful if you can note the pattern and apply accordingly xiayun Mar 06, 11:19

trackings biggest benefit is when its posted here on these boards and hsx bandwagons up if there is a huge disparity between the tracking pweiprod Mar 06, 11:33

I think we've found the perfect girlfriend for adrenalinn. {nm} secretstalker Mar 06, 11:38

tracking was pretty low for PJALT as well. {nm} CSBD Mar 06, 13:02

ANT BULLY was IMAX 3D it was a case of "lets make Tom Hanks happy" after POLAR EXPRESS IMAX 3D. notfabio Mar 06, 11:21

The big Avatar-esque trailer in front of Alice in Wonderland is going to do wonders MiyazakiFan Mar 06, 13:03

Which movie are you talking about? Tron? {nm} secretstalker Mar 06, 13:28

saw the trailer for Tron. It looks like s##it . Just like the original film {nm} mbri8 Mar 06, 18:55

Tracking for sh*t isn't a fact it's your opinion. It is in no way quantitative. And we have know way of knowing if your interpretation is Vashta Nerada Mar 06, 14:39
