2010 in review: Betsy Sharkey on film
The 3D mania: It has driven prices up — both of tickets and the films themselves — and forced all of us to don silly glasses, and to what end? The creative revolution it promised, the depth of experience it trumpeted, has, with a very few exceptions, failed to materialize. Animated films seem fearful of not having it, action and sci-fi are headed in that direction, even cheesy comedies aren’t exempt. Please, will someone stop the madness. Try spending the money on scripts and talent that will actually deliver another dimension, one that is worth the cost. (John Giles / Associated Press)
