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.

There are so any ways that 3D technology can be used to heighten our enjoyment of major events and also movies. An extra layer is added to the film to make us feel as if we are really there, and we feel as if we can reach out and touch it.

The progress that has been made in the last few years has been phenomenal. No more so that is recent blockbuster Avatar, and the fact that this technology is going to get even better is incredible.

Of all the movies that have been made in 3D, and there have been quite a few, 3 really stand out for me. You many have already seen them, if you haven’t you should really make the effort.

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.

Then when you popped on those glasses to watch the 3D version, the effects were fantastic. It enjoyed both critical and box office success and was really forerunner of the movies which have been released since.

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.
