3D-TV no hit with viewers

The thing is, you must spend the money, and set aside enough time in post to get it right. Cameron does this, and Warner has learned their lesson, that is for sure.

Director Micheal Bay has said that it cost between $120,000 to $150,000 per minute for post production 3D conversion which is about $20 million dollars a film. Will studios spend that kind of money for every movie (at least to do it right), or just for big blockbusters?

Of all 771 3D bluray movies on Amazon, one wonder how many movies have spend that kind of money for 3D conversion

Director Micheal Bay has said that it cost between $120,000 to $150,000 per minute for post production 3D conversion which is about $20 million dollars a film. Will studios spend that kind of money for every movie (at least to do it right), or just for big blockbusters?

The answer to that question should be pretty obvious by now. That price is a bit high, and it just does not make any sense to do 3D on all movies released. Animation costs just a fraction of that price to convert. Titantic 3D costs far less than $20 million to convert. So movies require more intensive handling than others with post 3D

Quite a few of them where already shot in 3D. IMAX had a bunch of titles already in 3D. Animation is already designed in 3D, and can be cheaply stereoized easily and quickly.
