The Top Box Office Productions That Use 3-D Effects

For decades we have seen experiments in 3D technology which to be honest have never lived up to the hype. Now, they finally seem to have cracked it.

Now the only question we need to ask is how far can this go? As well as movies, they are now using this technology to embellish major sports events and even live concerts, to give you the impression that you are actually there.

The most exciting thing of all is that although we think it’s great now, it can only get better. Look at Avatar, a few years ago it wouldn’t have been so well done or been anywhere near as successful.

I’m going to quickly tell you which 3 movies made in 3D are the best in my opinion. Have a look at them and see if you agree with me. If you have already seen them you will know what I’m talking about.

Few of us were privileged enough to see U2 in concert, but we got the next best thing by being able to see the entire concert in 3D. This gave cinema goers the impression of actually being at that remarkable gig. It was the first time that technology had been used this way, and it certainly won’t be the last.

The technology that went into making this so much more that just a tape of a concert is phenomenal. You know you are sitting in a movie theater but you are transported to that concert and you stay there until Bono leaves the stage. These are definitely going to be made more frequently and their box office potential is mind blowing.

Beowulf was released in 2007 in two versions, ordinary and 3D. To be honest, the former was nothing to get excited, just a re telling of the Beowulf tale with nothing new to get excited about.

The 3D version, however, was simply stunning. The visual effects blew you away and it was praised by cinema goers and critics alike. The movies released since have more than likely taken a lot of inspiration from Beowulf.

Years in the making, James Cameron at the helm, the winner has to be Avatar. Mentally stimulating and visually stunning, this truly is a modern classic. This really is like nothing that has ever hit the cinema screen before; it has overtaken Titanic as the highest grossing film ever. I wouldn’t bet against it at the Oscars either.
