3D movies have been intriguing audiences for years. While there have been many attempts through the decades to refresh the use of 3D, it has only recently started to gain mainstream appeal. 3D technology has brought new life to movies, and with the revolutionary introduction of 3D TV’s, you are capable of viewing 3D movies at home.
But what are the best 3D movies to watch at home (and binge-watch)?
Christopher Nolan’s 2013 film is a great 3D choice. Using a ground-breaking Light Box, he constructed a painstakingly conceived 3D experience that sent audiences up with Sandra Bullock. This Oscar-winner shows how good a 3D film can really look.
Avatar (2009)
James Cameron has twice created the biggest film of all time. With this 2009 masterpiece, he waited a decade for technology to catch up with his ideas and developing cameras capable of capturing them. Avatar was a 3D film with an immersive world, creating an entirely believable and enchanting other planet to explore.
How To Train Your Dragon (2010)
This DreamWorks 2010 film tells the story of an outsider boy who learns that the dragons his people have been fighting might actually be the key to their survival. In 3D, its aerial swooping and gliding is the next best thing to riding an actual dragon.
The third instalment of the Toy Story franchise was the first to receive 3D treatment. It tells the emotionally complex story of a group of toys led by Woody and Buzz, as they enter a new phase of their existence as toys in a day care facility. The added 3D effect makes the film more immersive.
Up (2009)
This film is enough to reduce anyone to tears, as it charts the course of a love story from childhood friendship, to marriage, to tragic death in the first 20 minutes! This film about love, loss, healing, and adventure showcases some of the most beautiful animations Pixar has ever created.
Alice In Wonderland (2010)
Tim Burton’s 2010 take on this classic is exactly the sort of film that audiences want to see in 3D format. Burton’s dizzy and dark version of Wonderland is full of curls, corners and characters that pop up at anytime and anywhere.
Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs (2009)
CG animated films have found it quick and easy to convert to 3D, meaning these films have flourished the most in the 3D era. This 2009 film was little known to audiences, as hardly anyone in the UK knew of the book on which the film is based. But packed with gags and charming characters, this is a great film to watch in 3D.
Hugo (2011)
Hugo was filmed with 3D cameras and designed to be virtually compelling. Directed by the legendary Martin Scorsese, it tells the story of Hugo Cabret, a 12-year-old boy living in 1931 who loses his father and embarks on a series of adventures in order to realise his father’s dream. This film won 5 Oscars, including Best Visual Effects.
