The Future of 3D Cinema

My Bloody Valentine in 3D is being released in theaters. It has made me wonder about other 3D releases. Most of the 3D movies I can think of are in either the horror or action/adventure genre.

Sure, James Cameron did a pseudo-documentary in 3D with "Ghosts of the Abyss." Falling in love with the 3D now, Cameron is doing two more 3D releases, "Avatar" in 2009 and "Battle Angel" in 2011.

Robert Rodriguez released "Spy Kids 3D: Game Over" in 2003. While it could be classified a children's film, it could also be classified action/adventure.

Looking at a list of 3D films, most of them seemed to be horror or action. These genres would seem to work well in 3D. But it made me wonder, how would other genres work in 3D?

Period Piece: "The English Patient" in 3D? I don't think so.

Drama: Ugh.

Romantic Comedy: Uh, no.

Comedy: Slapstick, maybe. Others, maybe not.

Porn: No. Just. Plain. No.
