Martin Scorsese and Werner Herzog Embrace 3-D
Topics:
Is this the beginning of the end? I’m sad to report that the last bastion of hope in the world of film may have finally given way, as two of the most respected filmmakers currently working today have decided to step up and use 3-D technology on their upcoming projects. Martin Scorsese recently confirmed that his next movie, The Invention of Hugo Cabret , will be shot in 3-D. Scorsese had previously hinted that he was interested in working with 3-D and, believe it or not, he was quoted as saying that even movies like Precious should be in 3-D.

Highly Recommended The Movies: Warner Brothers previously released pretty solid versions of Jailhouse Rock and Viva Las Vegas on Blu-ray a few years back but have no packaged them together along with the new Blu-ray release of Elvis On Tour and put them all together in the aptly named Elvis Blu-ray Collection .

I really wanted to love Shutter Island . The performances are fantastic, the production design and photography are pitch perfect and the music is wonderful. It’s got all the right ingredients to be a spooky thriller but in the end, it just doesn’t manage to add up to the film I want to see from Martin Scorsese . And I think it’s...
