3D Movies

"Honey, I shrunk the audience"
This film is being shown at EPCOT Center.
Special effects, story line, audience involvement, humorous,
3D,...everything was spectacular!  I truly enjoyed this film; saw it
twice!  I felt like I WAS shrunk!! This is a Must See!!!  

"T2-3D"
Universal Studios
Special Effects & liquid-metal spider- great.  (There was one scene
where 3 screens were used- great effect.  not as many eye catching 3D
scenes as "Honey...".  

"L5: First City in Space"
Kennedy Space Center, Florida
This was an IMAX film, and was not as impressive as the others, and the
least memorable, though a few of the computer-generated scenes were done
quite nice.

Lenticulars

At Innoventions, EPCOT Center, there are about 15 lenticular images on
the wall.  One of the images is a Kodak Depth Imaging logo; I imagine
all of the images are done by Depth Imaging, these are quite spectacular
3D images.

At T2:3D Gift Shop, Universal Studios Florida, there is a T2 3D
lenticular (large, aprox. 30" * 40") behind the counter.  A smaller
version of this image is for sale on a mouse pad. Another T2 image is
availabe in the form of a postcard. (The postcard changes from one image
to another, but is not 3D)

"REAL" 3D TV?

At Innoventions, EPCOT Center, Florida, there is a LCD TV screen
(approx. 10" diag) from Sanyo, that was showing a White Water Rafting
video.  This video was in 3D, using the lenticular technology, and no
glasses required.
