Check out this awesome trailer for Dracula 2000 director Patrick Lussier's new film, Drive Angry.
Refreshing to see a director that realizes the advantages of stereoscopic 3D over postconversion.
For those that don't know the difference between stereoscopic 3D and postconversion 3D, look at the two Avatar movies. Cameron shot in 3D(stereoscopic) and won big. Shyamalan chose postconversion and embarrassed himself.
How do you tell the difference?
Watch the trailer for the title. It doesn't say "Shot in 3D" for no reason. that's the difference between stereoscopic 3D and postconversion. Stereoscopic means they captured the footage with a 3D camera, whereas postconversion is done in editing to give the flat image some imaginary depth. Postconversion is bad 3D. Do not watch it if you can avoid it. The characters will appear as flat, "cardboard cut-outs" and you will get a headache. Stereoscopic 3D, or "Shot in 3D", on the other hand, ensures that you get your money's worth at the theatre.
Watch for Drive Angry in 2011.

...upgraded 3D viewing!

No more shitty cardboard glasses for me! Just got in a fresh shipment of these hip developer glasses. They look so good, you could almost wear them around town. Don't wear them when you're driving, though, its hard to tell what color the stoplights are.
