#33: Piranha 3D

[bigfootcountry]

This is the exact type of movie I would have LOVED as a kid. And frankly, I still do. Nature run amok. It's a great theme for a movie, whether it's done in absolute seriousness (like "Jaws," "Jurassic Park," or "Tarantula") or in full-on goofy campy mode (as in "Evolution," "Eight Legged Freaks," or this movie).

Piranha 3D is exactly what it sounds

I agree with your points about 3-D, but keep in mind that the ticket price tends to be higher, and 3-D is an excellent excuse to promote the Imax screenings, which are also higher cost tickets. So these films *do* tend to make more money than they might otherwise, as long as the perception is there that 3-D is better, or bringing you something you can't get elsewhere. I think the rush to make everything 3-D is a fad, and will go away or at least slow down, but right now we are in the middle of a perceived need for films to be in 3-D.
