Man of Steel. For all it's flaws, I enjoyed it. Wanted to smack Kevin Cosner in the mouth, but yeah. It manages to shine inspite of itself.

Fucking awesome concept with a shoddy execution

Well, I saw two movies today.

First was an early preview of Despicable Me 2. It was funny at least in some parts, though obviously a kid film at its core. And thus filled with children shouting about everything on screen.

Before the preview, I went to see World War Z. I think I'll spoiler out my entire "review" of this film for anyone who wants to read it, because it mostly consists of me ranting about all of the flaws and the bullshit resolution to the virus.

Do you want to put that spoiler behind a spoiler tab?

Monsters university.  I enjoyed it though I don't see the point of it being in 3D (My wife's idea and she paid for the ticket so I wasn't going to argue). 

I do want to see Planes in 3D though.

3D is a cheap way to make more money with animation. It often fails with live action films because unless the film is filmed in 3D (which is costly and takes ages; you can lose up to 3 hours or more on a single day of shooting due to the added complexity of the cameras), you need to spend months and months doing post-production conversion that often doesn't look as good as the real thing.

With CGI films, though, it's extremely simple: re-render the masters with a split virtual camera. Bam, done. That's why they could get Toy Story's 3D re-releases out so quickly and easily. And you charge extra money for 3D tickets, so it's really a win-win.

I've never liked the concept of making a film in 3D. Usually they're poorly executed and distract from the rest of the film, and not only that, the novelty of such gimmickry, even when well done, grows stale quickly.

Then there are movies that are re-released where it's just not necessary, like a critically acclaimed film such as The Lion King or a almost universally loathed film (and token of disappointment) like Star Wars [Episode I]: The Phantom Menace.

I went to see the re-release of Jurassic Park in 3D a while back. There were a few scenes where it worked out, but for the most part it was just distracting. Without the proper camera work, 3D isn't very effective.
