Guellermo Del Toro has been recording Pinocchio in 3D since before he started recording Pacific Rim. Guillermo Del Toro spent so much time getting into detail of how he wanted the 3D effect done in each scene, which shows major passion for 3D, despite his earlier views.

J.J. Abrams promise he would record all future Star Trek movies in 3D.

I could find Martin Scorsese's earlier views on 3D which shows he has no interest in ever making a 3D movie, but even his views change and he is now happy that he made a 3D movie.

PI know of Christopher Nolan's earlier views on 3D explaining why he didn't shot the Dark Knight Rises in 3D. But he was the Producer of Man of Steel and he could have made that a 2D only movie if he still believed in his views back then, but instead he made the theater format of the 3D effect 19 lambarts (which is why I made sure to see the IMAX 3D version, because I was sure he was going to do such a thing from his past statement about batman 3 not being in 3D).

Neil Blomkamp clearly hates both HD & IMAX the most, and sees them as a much more bigger gimmick. The Neil Blomkamp statement basically confirms what I have always been saying, which is that HD & IMAX are a way more bigger gimmick then 3D will ever be.

 

At the end of the day, 2D is going the way of "Black & White" in everyway.

 

Can we all just agree that HD & IMAX will always be a more bigger gimmick then 3D has ever been?

And that 24 fps is the coolest frame rate for live-action movies, even though 48 fps is needed for certain action scenes in live-action 3D movies?

At least get your facts straight. Christopher Nolan is one of 5 writers for Man of Steel, he left the project to pursue his own movies after he could not agree with the ending.

Guillermo Del Torro's complaint is that 3D makes things look smaller, he is ok with co-directing a stop motion version of Pinocchio in 3D as the whole point of stop motion is looking at a miniature. As far as I can tell he's obsessed with the look of the characters, not the 3D process.

I don't know about Abrams promiss to go 3D, but I imagine if the studio is pushing it on him he'll want to have a say in it anyway.

HD and Imax or not a bigger gimmick, heck don't you youself keep saying that you have to go to IMAX to enjoy 3D?
Or are you being sarcastic now, I can't tell.
48/60 fps has a future too, for certain styles or action scenes if they fix the scene lighting. That will take some time to figure out as everything has been developed to make 24fps look good. However 3D already exists since 1922, and still no solution for the focus/convergence problem. And glasses free 3D cinema also seems to be impossible for a long time to come.

At the end of the day 3D is going the way of shaky cam. It will be there as a film style, it won't replace 2D. The balance is only skewed at the moment due to the higher ticket prices.
