How Things Work: 3-D movies
The Tartan Online: "Watching a movie where a sword comes right out of the screen at you can be a thrilling experience. Filmmakers make this possible by using 3-D technology that makes the audience feel as if it is part of the action. As stated in an article on www.guardian.co.uk, the first 3-D film, The Power of Love, was released in 1922. Since then, the technology has been used by filmmakers far and wide."

3D is an incredibly interesting technology. The logical next step is to incorporate it into virtual reality or video games. Most movies use it as a cheap thrill factor. I think there's potential - people just haven't figured out how to effectively use the technology yet.
Like Cass, I think that this technology is really cool. I am unable to watch 3D movies because my eyes have trouble focusing the images right (or something). This seems to be one more step along the road towards holographic projections and other 3D creations. I wish that studios would learn to use this technology effectively and try to determine other uses for it other than to boost box office sales.
