3D has come a long way since I watched Jaws 3 in 3D, back then I swore a childish oath never to watch another 3D movie again but now the technology has obviously matured, a lot, I think I will swear a new oath now never to watch another movie at the cinema which isn't in 3D.

I was really impressed, Jaws 3 in 3D was for the most part in a headache inducing definitely not in 3D apart from at 1 or 2 ridiculous points where someone squirts a hypodermic syringe and when Jaws explodes at the end and all the chunks came flying out. The 3D in Avatar was a totally different kettle of fish, everything is in 3D and it looks absolutely amazing. It's still not perfect 3D because the camera still has to focus on things so there is a weird kind of jarring effect where stuff you're looking at is suddenly out of focus even though you are, personally, focussing on it. I think my brain must have completely accepted the reality of the bits which were in focus and then got really puzzled that bits of reality were suddenly all blurred even when I it was focussing on them fully.

So, the 3D is fantastic. The rest of the film isn't really that great, it's ridiculous. Basically a load of moronic, stone age Ja Ja Binks hippy ewoks VS a load of moronic, gung ho, cliches in gun belts. You can tell exactly what is going happen within the first 10 minutes. Having said that though the film is almost 3 hours long but it really didn't feel like it whilst I was watching it - I was glad it had ended but wasn't, quite, totally bored. It is only a 12 certificate and it was mildly entertaining but that's about it.

I hope someone makes a proper sci-fi film using 3D, I would definitely go to the cinema to watch it.
