3-D Movies

A pair of glasses to watch a 3-D movie with It's the latest trend in special effects. What do you think? Does it add to the movie, or is it distracting? Is it cool, over over-rated? Does it make you feel like you're inside the movie, or does it pull you out of the moment? Is it realistic? Does it matter? Do you prefer 3-D movies to other kinds of movies? Do some movies do 3-D better than others? If you made a movie, would you want it to be 3-D?

It's Over-Rated!!

by Katie, age 19

3D movies are so expensive our movie theatres. Here in the UK it costs £8.40 for a ticket to watch a 3D movie! So if you already have the glasses, why should they charge for a new pair? It would save money! I watched the last Final Destination movie in 3D and quite frankly it was very distracting. I thought the special effects involving 3D ruined the movie! You are too involved watching the effects they are using that you lose focus throughout the film. I did enjoy watching the 3D version of UP, though! That was amazing with the effects! But 3D can be over-rated and distracting, so I would rather watch a normal movie and pay half the price than what you pay for a 3D movie.
