* [[3D Movie]]: Started out as "the next big thing", then thrown aside and treated with disdain. Now, it's "the next big thing". This has already happened twice before (first in the [[The Fifties|1950s]] and then again in the [[The Eighties|1980s]]), as each time the [[Technology Marches On]] it's revived, gets a couple of years in the spotlight, and then everybody decides it's still not worth the trouble. It seems to have repeated again, with 3D technology becoming less frequent in movies (though the fact that very popular and non-gimmicky movies like ''[[Avatar (film)|Avatar]]'' and ''[[Toy Story 3]]'' have used it and drawn in more ticket sales as a result means that the trend probably won't disappear ''entirely''). |
