(from a Harry Knowles interview with director James Cameron)
“With that we began talking about 3D. The camera he is going to be shooting with is called THE FUSION CAMERA, which is scheduled to shoot a U2 Concert in the next couple of days. I love that he knows where his camera is going. Anyway. Jim’s planning on shooting 3D not so much as the stab you in the eye, throw a flaming spear at you type of thing, but as, what he calls, “A More Lucid Window,†through which to observe the worlds that he’s going to unleash upon us.
When I began talking about the questionable Home Entertainment application in terms of immediate revenue return, like the 2D market today… especially with this film being seen widely in the superior stereoscopic format. Cameron said that all the at-home viewing technology is developed and is sitting waiting for content. Before the technology giants like SONY come out with the perfect 3D at home screening units – they need to have at least 30-40 major popular titles to package to offer in an initial offering to the public. That’s where the retro-fitting of 2D films to Stereo Optics is coming in. 3D STAR WARS, INDIANA JONES, etc. I asked him which of his films would get that treatment and at this time he’s really concentrating on T2 and TITANIC.”
Ahem.
When’s E3 again..?

(oh…and whilst my tangental thrust is of the interactive variety, scope THIS out. Finally…a chance at sweet, SWEET redemption after the sea of scrotum sweat and phallic feta-froth poor Supes endured last time.)
So does this confirm that 3D will be on Revolution? He mentioned Sony, so I guess they will enter the fray sooner or later.
Yeah, only about 2 months until we finally find out! I can’t stand it much longer….
No confirmation…officially.
But I think it’s safe to start the discussion again.

Are you SURE you are not reading too much into this Brooke? Its only talking about movies. I hope you know more about it than what is said in the interview. I’ve seen the post you did a year ago and its very good. Aries messed stuff up for you but you made some good points.
I would like to hear what you have to say about the Revolution now.
Its been a very long time of silence from you.
If you have some info please share it with us!
Hmm…I’ve waited, what, a year and a half now? I don’t think another couple months will kill me. Keep those lips zipped, Brooke!
Brooke, do you think it’s more likely Revolution or PS3 will make use of 3D? Have you heard any rumours about PS3 getting the technology?
i want to hear more about the nintendo revolution ( or will the final name be “NEX” ? ), too!! Will the last secret of it be stereoscopic 3D? and can we see on it dvd-films on it in 3D?
Is this the final revolution: http://www.3dh.net ??
- Please tell us more about the last secrets for revolution… I think it would be a big surprise for all… it must have something to do with 3D, because we havent seen any screenshots or videos yet!!( because nin don t want that sony will steal it again?)
please tell us more, when you know something about it!
