FYI:
Since 1980 3d movies have generated $13,352,162,225 in box office revenue.
The following 3d films are in production or pre production:
TBD
3D Focus UK reports:
"
A steady growth in the number of Blu-ray titles entering the market will help to maintain interest in 3DTV, the latest research suggests.
Futuresource estimates that by the end of 2012 175 titles will be available in the US, and with a further 105 expected to be released in 2013, total title availability will reach close to 300, a mix of blockbusters and indie films as well as niche and documentary releases.
Within Western Europe 3.1 million homes were 3D Blu-ray capable in 2011 [households owing both a 3D TV and either a standalone 3D Blu-ray player or PS3]. By 2016 41% Western European homes will be 3D Blu-ray capable.
In the US last year 4.8 million 3D Blu-ray sales were recorded with a further 3 million units in Western Europe where 3D titles represented 5% of total sales.
Futuresource expects US Blu-ray title sales to reach 11.5 million in 2012, boosted by the increased availability of 3D Blu-ray titles and blockbusters like The Amazing Spider-Man, accounting for 9% of total Blu-ray units. By 2016, 3D Blu-ray is expected to represent 24% of total Blu-ray sales.
Western European sales are forecast to reach 8 million in 2012 and will account for close to 11% of total Blu-ray title sales. By 2016 this share will rise close to 35%."
I would not write the 3D eulogy quite yet.
Is 3D really dead again or just resting?

I respectfully suggest you view martin scorsese's Hugo & Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder on 3D blu ray if you have the chance. I beleive the medium added quite a bit of atmosphere to both excellent films. Yes, they are fine films in 2D as well, but 3D did enhance these wonderful movies.
