3D Combines with DLP Technology for Television

There's a lot of 3D movies coming our way. Robert Zemeckis's Beowulf (shown in a theater display above) is one and in 2009, the much-awaited Avatar, from James Cameron, will wow audiences with its groundbreaking new camera technology which mimics the way humans see the world. This technology will allow for eye-stress free viewing, which means that our eyes and brain won't have to compensate for parallax mistakes in the picture.

A New Age for 3-D Movies Begins with Avatar

James Cameron may be onto something when he declared that his new science-fiction adventure feature, Avatar, will be shown only in 3-D. It will be his first after the blockbuster Titanic. I guess this means more IMAX theaters should be put up. He says he wants recapture the "old feeling" of seeing a movie like Star Wars or Space Odyssey 2001 for the first time. Does this mean that 3-D will be the movie experience of the future? I guess, yes, if it catches on. The movie reunites Cameron with Sigourney Weaver, whom he worked with in another famous sci-fi film, Aliens.
