Let's start with the obvious. Filmmaking is a business. It is, despite the number of authors who proclaim otherwise. Despite the desire to reach an intelligible art or a reasonable social complaints. It's the entertainment business. And part of that part of doing business as profitable as possible. As a result dealers can charge admission to theater, then rent, sell film for private use and even sale of TV rights. Something similar happens with the formats for playback at home, first was the VHS (glaring at BETA) after a failed Laser Disc, the popular DVD, the new Blue-Ray ... The object is to make us spend more times better box. Given these technological uses and abuses by the film industry (among many) piracy functioned as a kind of Robin Hood that promised us free education in times of excessive taxation. The industry has been quick to respond with an answer "novel." They dusted off the old invention of 3D, once again willing to sell the same hook over and over. Given that the invention of the optical illusion dates from 1838 (it was invented by Charles Wheatstone) and that the first 3D movies (The Power of Love and Music of the Future) date back to 1922, we believe something presumptuous to say that this is the invention of the millennium, and charge 3 euros more entry for it. The great heyday of the classic 3D occurred in the 50's, making great movies like Crimes of the Wax Museum, and applied especially to science fiction titles such as Robot Monster minor or It Came From Outer Space. At that time the dealers went further, offering rooms that vibrate or expelling odors help the viewer to capture the atmosphere of the film. The 3D has since remained as a minority stronghold, an invention failed to produce more headaches than spectacular sensations. Until the arrival of James Cameron and renewal of old technology in the film Avatar. Following the monstrous success of the film many have assigned the invention (including priests as Tim Burton and George Lucas) and his films have been adapted to the new format. The result is a new fad that will end sooner than they expect these new kings. A fashion that does not improve much the original product and if it gets worse some aspects (darken the screen), and seems destined for a new exile after this new boom.
