Monster House does better in 3D . . .

Good news for us stereoscopic cinemaphiles . . . Monster House is doing better on 3D screens than on screens that don’t have the new digital 3D system installed.  See hereAnt Bully is also pulling in 3D monies.  What does that mean for those of us in Taiwan?  Not a lot . . . yet.  However we will be able to see Ant Bully on IMAX but Monster House will likely follow Chicken Little into the realm of 3D-only showings.  I have seen a number of reviews by folks who understand 3D comparing Monster House and Ant Bully and so far Monster House is winning hands down with no ghosting at all while Ant Bully seems to be plagued with quite a bit of ghosting (sometimes it’s the individual theatre and sometimes it’s the linear polarized glasses they use).  Unfortunately, we won’t get to compare the systems here as the digital system doesn’t exist here . . . yet.  The success stateside of the new circular polarized digital systems will hopefully encourage someone . . . anyone . . . please . . . to install the new system here and start reaping profits.  Hollywood’s movers and shakers have made it clear that 3D is the way of the future so it is likley to only be a matter of time . . . on our side of the big blue though it’s a matter of who’s first and the folks making those decisions are being ultraconservative and skittish on the matter.
