To 3-D or Not to 3-D

Later today, I am thinking of going over to the Fox Lake Theatre to see the new Shrek movie. OK, I have to admit that I am a big fan of the series and am sad this one is supposedly the last one.

The theatre is nice enough to offer it in both 3-D and 2-D. Richard Roeper in the April 6th Chicago Sun-Times wrote about the movie "Clash of the Titans" another 3D movie that raked in over $64 million opening weekend. He said it was really Two-and-a-half-D as it was filmed regular then converted because "the latest 3-D craze is apparently unstoppable, with at least70 3-D films" scheduled in the next couple years.

I have noticed the overabundance of these films. Seems like every time you turn around, here's another one. At least we offered the choice of regular or jump-out at us.

I'll be choosing 2-D as the glasses bother my eyes and 3-D does cost 2 bucks more.

By the way, Roeper says that the New York Post claims that "release the Kraken" has already become a "cultish catchphrase."

Thought for the Day: One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young. Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
