3 Dimensions

Hollywood is or rather has been getting the idea in their head that they every new movie that is coming out to theaters must have 3-D. Professionally I do not mind this as it most likely helps pay the bills, however personally I am against it because it takes away from the actual story of the film. There are certain movies where 3-D can enhance the story with films such as How to Train Your Dragon and Toy Story 3.

Films that have computer generated imagery in them are most likely the best contenders for 3-D because of dimensionality. You can already see things as if they were to be perceived in life. However some films such as Top Gun and Star Wars Episode 1 are being converted into 3-D when it should not be converted because it does not enhance the story at all.
