Rango: A film review
Friday, March 25, 2011 | Doug Ferguson 
- Vancouver, British Columbia - I don't know if you've been paying much attention to movies lately, but animated features are in. Pixar and Dreamworks Animation are combating for top spot, while other studios are still finding their footing. 5 of the 10 top grossing films of 2010 were animated, and every animated film was released in 3D. One could argue a connection. Though, as much as studios think 3D has “caught on” and plan to continue the release of 3D features, animated or otherwise, I actually have noticed a trend that audiences are bemoaning it rather than reveling in it. Can they say that it has become popular if they're hardly giving audiences a choice? If everything is in 3D, doesn't that spoil the novelty of the big event movies where it's justified? What about all of those movies where it just looks awful? I think we've seen more of those than films where it works.
