Zeev,
What do you think the vast majority of films that are made and
released today are, anyhow? They are ALL commercial ventures, whether
they be good bad or somewhere in between. Even small indie films hope
to make some of their investment dollars back (if not all).

receives such great attention and coverage on MOPO. I’m tired from
pressing the DELETE key.

Well, I caught it last night. As the film goes, I was entertained
and isn't that what movies are all about. I caught the 3d version
and think I'd enjoy it a little better in 2d just because the 3d is
minimal impact and the 3d glasses start weighing heavy on the
bridge of my nose about 1/2 way into the film. Will I buy the DVD
when it releases...... ? Probably if it has the new and 1981
editions on a special edition set otherwise it was good for a
single watch.

Even though the critics hated it, Clash of the Titans was #1 at the
boxoffice for the weekend. Lets see how fast it drops this weekend.

Yep,
It was the industry's rush to cheaply capitalize on the last 3D
market that killed it -- they put out all kinds of really bad films
that took little or no advantage of the 3D effect and then
advertised them as the Ultimate 3D Experience. Theater goers get
burned on a couple of those and the fad dies out.
I'm hoping the film distribution business (and the theater
ownership business) is in such precarious shape right now that they
will pressure the rest of the industry to come up with real quality
3D content. If most of the new 3D films released are worth it, this
will keep the public coming into the theaters for another 10 years
or so until quality home 3D technology becomes affordable to the
low-budget consumer. If not, we're going to start seeing cineplexes
closing in droves, since most newly-released films are now
available on disc or online in 60 days of less from release now,
there's precious little reason for most people to schlep down to
the theater anymore.
The last film I bothered to go to a first-run theater in the past
two years was to see AVATAR -- and only because it was 3D. And I
used to go to the theater at least once a week 6 years ago.

I saw Clash of the Titans last night because my eldest son wanted
to, and the movie itself blows (no big surprise there) but the 3D
also blows. I could have been wearing some "X-Ray Specs" for all
the difference the supposed 3D made. I took off the glasses on and
off (I was really bored) and there was next to no difference
watching with them or without them.
3-D should have many images that come off the screen and at the
viewer, and this movie had zero such scenes. They better quit this
conversion crap in a hurry, or 3D won't last as long as it did in
1953 and 1954.
