3-D movies back from the dead
3-D glasses and movies are largely rubbish. They always were
and mostly, still are – last year’s Spy Kids 3-D anyone? However, Disney and Dolby
think there’s life in the dead horse yet. 
Chicken Little will be the first
movie from Disney to boast it’s new computer-generated technology and in order
to make sure the movie (and the technology) doesn’t bomb, it has teamed up with
Dolby and Industrial Light & Magic (ILM). Disney will put Dolby’s Digital
Cinema sound system in 100 cinemas and ILM will render the movie in 3D so it
can be played on the Dolby servers. As expected, everyone is very excited about
the this new, generation of 3-D movie experience. 
Apparently, the glasses will
be more comfortable than the bits of cardboard with plastic film we have come
to love so well over the years. Great, but it would be nice if they actually
worked.
