Back in like 2007, big news hit the scene – 3D movies were a thing. Mind-blowing, right? Then, fast-forward to 2009, everyone was like, “Whoa, 3D’s gonna save the movie world!” But then, it kinda lost its sparkle and faded away from the spotlight.
But guess what? There are these new-ish flicks, like “Gravity” and “The Walk,” that totally bring 3D back into the game. These films are like, “Hey, not everyone’s using 3D, but when they do, it’s gotta be epic.” Check out these awesome 3D movies:
Gravity (2013)
This one’s by Alfonso Cuarón, and it’s all about space craziness. Sandra Bullock’s just floating there with space stuff all around. Super intense and mind-blowing in 3D.
Avatar (2009)
James Cameron went all out and created a whole new world in 3D. Not just, like, things popping out, but a legit universe to dive into. It’s like, “Whoa, we’re in another dimension!”
How To Train Your Dragon (2010)
This one’s about this dude and his dragon pal. They’re like, adventuring together, and with 3D, it’s like you’re soaring with them. Total adrenaline rush!
Journey To The Center Of The Earth (2008)
Dude, there’s this underground adventure, and there’s, like, chasing in mines and stuff. And in 3D, you’re right there with them, feeling the thrill.
Beowulf (2007)
Epic battles and a dragon, man. It’s wild but rad. And with 3D, things, like, jump out of the screen, like those spears. Robert Zemeckis, a trailblazer in performance capture technology, skillfully combined this cutting-edge technology with one of the oldest stories in the English language to create a medieval epic.
Toy Story 3 (2010)
Pixar doesn’t rely on showy 3D gimmicks for their films, but they tastefully add a little extra depth to enhance the immersive experience. In their nearly flawless film, as Woody, Buzz, and the gang embark on their final adventure, the 3D effect allows you to feel like you’re part of the action.
The Walk (2015)
The story of Philippe Petit’s daring tightrope walk between the Twin Towers in 1973 is tailor-made for a 3D treatment, and Robert Zemeckis, known for his affinity for hair-raising vistas, proves to be the perfect director to capture it.
The Nightmare Before Christmas 3D (2006)
Thirteen years after its original release, Henry Selick’s stop-motion classic, based on Tim Burton’s story, received the 3D treatment. Surprisingly, the 3D works brilliantly with the stop-motion format, as the characters come to life, bouncing off the screen.
Monsters Vs. Aliens (2009)
In the Noughties, there were few kids’ movies like this one, packed with endless references to obscure ’50s B-movies and sci-fi in-jokes. The clever layering of gags, appealing to geeks young and old, gave this crazy monster mash a special sparkle.
My Bloody Valentine (2009)
Horror and 3D have always been a winning combination, as the format allows filmmakers to intensify scares by bringing them closer to the audience with knives, severed body parts, and grabbing arms lunging out from the screen. While this 1981 schlocker remake doesn’t revolutionize the horror genre, it delivers solid B-movie entertainment with plenty of scares and a touch of humor.
