Hollywood’s ponying up $700 million to upgrade 10,000 theaters so they can show digital 3D movies.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I don’t really know what to think. People really care about this? Enough to spend more money to go to the movies?
Interest in 3-D has come and gone since the 1950s, but studios began to take the format seriously again after a 3-D version of 2004’s ‘’The Polar Express'’ from Warner Bros. grossed more than $45 million.
A number of high-profile filmmakers now have 3-D projects in the works, including James Cameron and Tim Burton.
Walt Disney Co. is making ‘’Toy Story 3′’ in 3-D and plans to rerelease the first two ‘’Toy Story'’ films in the trilogy in the format.

I don’t know - I took my 4-year-old daughter to Polar Express 3-D on IMAX when it came out and it was pretty amazing. I’d see both Toy Story movies again 3-D.

For the amount of money I’m paying at the box office, maybe they should offer more dimensions.
