When the original "Avatar" hit theaters, it was lauded not only for its groundbreaking use of digital effects but also for its use of 3D. It was believed that 3D would be a major factor in all major film releases going forward, and while 3D was prominently used for a long time, the number of films shot in 3D that really took advantage of the technology has been few and far between.
James Cameron is still a major proponent of 3D. Speaking with The Town podcast, Cameron was asked why nobody else has been able to make 3D work in the way that he has. The director first took aim and the post-production 3D conversion process. Cameron has a blunt opinion on its quality, as compared to when other great directors filmed in 3D.
