1980's Horrors Return In 3D

I want to know your opinion on this because I think its a shame to have such great new advances in techs regarding Digital screens in cinemas, great Surround Sound and now 3D.  We have the key ingredient's for a film  extravaganza if only we had a good film to take advantage of it.  We are missing a mixture of script, acting and effects when it comes to these techs.  I remember when films used to make you jump, think, turn away and on the other side of the scale smile, amaze and impress.  The days I'm talking about are from the Eighties, with titles such as E.T, Starwars, and the Goonies and so on... Oh big mistake one of the Films mentioned are from the late 70's well anyway you catch my drift, these films were beyond there time and remastered On the Big Screens with 3D and the rest of the techs would be brilliant.  OK its not just the soft PG films I think that should get the big Tech polish, I also think films such as Flatliners, poltergeist and Hell Raiser, all could do with some remastered 3D magic.  It would shit us up more than the first time we sat behind our cushions on the sofa.  Now that would be something to think about.

  1. Oh forgot to mention how good 'Aliens' would be in 3D can someone tell a producer.

  2. The problem is a majority of film wouldn't justify being made 3D in their present state they would have to be remade using new cast, director and an HD camera. It's been a big step making alot of the old films HD but that's by using software to enhance the picture. I know some films were terrible and could do with being re-written and redone but some should just remain 2D :)

  3. Yeah thats True Goodie a valid point about having to remake 2D films for 3D with new cast and 3D filming Tech. But Some of the Idea's back then were GENIUS ie Prophecy, HellRaiser,Jacobs Ladder they all had imagination. But Hey! I was talking to Dave D about remakes and thought out a loud about how good it would be to make 'Total Recall'and found out now that they are in fact making Total recall with new cast which surely can only improve a classic Sci-Fi script of this calibre. There is a glimmer of hope, but only wish they could come up with something original but with the same feel and magic of films gone by.

  5. No there wasn't anything wrong with the original 'Total Recall' for me. That is the complete point of what I'm trying to say about well written scripts and imaginative ideas that make this film good. But I think there are the tools out there to make films like 'Total Recall' a masterpiece for another generation.
