Star Trek Post Production 3D Blues
I don’t share the same amount of hatred of JJ Abrams’ Star Trek with Dave, and while I kind of wonder how they are going to remake the Wrath of Khan when the first movie pretty much made it so that Space Seed never happened, I kind of expect it to be pretty good. I do have one opinion in common with Dave and that’s post production 3D sucks.
JJ Abrams has announced he is going to shoot the whole thing in 2D and let Paramount 3D it up post production. I don’t think this has ever produced a good effect. All the best 3D movies are shot in 3D, and generally make for really good films. Whenever it is done in 2D and ramped up later the 3D is almost not even noticeable and the film makers never seem to look for the right opportunity to show the 3D effects. Basically it turns into a huge waste of film.
Dave is more the Trek fan and has a lot of strong opinions about JJ taking over the franchise and rebooting it. I just enjoyed the film and am not that worried about sticking to canon. I am looking forward to listening to Dave bitch about it when he is writing the review however.
This Khan shirt I found in Dave’s Star Trek t shirt collection. Good episode IMO.
