Is ‘Breaking Dawn’ in 3D a good idea?

breaking-dawn_lAs Summit Entertainment continues to decide whether to turn Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final book in the Twilight saga, into two films, there is another question on the table as well: To 3D or not to 3D? But instead of just sitting back and waiting for a decision, we decided a PopWatch poll was in order to let execs (and Stephenie Meyer) know how YOU feel about a 3D treatment for the final films. Before we take it to a vote, let’s look at the pros and cons. SPOILER ALERT!

Pro: For the studio, there’s the extra fee on the ticket, which is guaranteed to be a hot one for Twihards regardless of its decision. Also, the still rare 3D experience could lure in moviegoers who are on the fence.
Con: For the person who sees the Twilight films purely to keep current on pop culture, having to pay more will heighten any resentment he or she may feel if disappointed.

Pro: Fast-moving vampires and werewolves should look awesome in 3D. So should Bella and Edward getting busy…
Con: Shockingly, some Twilight fans don’t want to feel like they’re in the room (or water) for those intimate moments.

Pro: The visuals in the Twilight films have, frankly, always been stronger than the script. So let’s eye-candy it out.
Con: Some fans would prefer the focus be on story.

What do you think?

    I’m on the fence…i love the story but when i read i see the story in my head and 3D might be the only way to come close to those mental pics…i’ll love it whatever is decided.

  3. sherri Says:

    NO…yes, there are going to be great 3D possible moments but there would have been many in the previous movies, but its about the love story. Would you want to see any other love story in 3D?

  4. Laurie Says:

    I’m not a big 3D fan and my kids hate wearing the glasses, so I say no.

  5. Betsy Says:

    I think I’m kinda tired of the whole 3D thing and I don’t think it would really bring anything new to the story. That being said, I would probably go see it in 3D anyways. :) Also, I’ve made a Robert Pattinson puzzle and I thought I’d share it with other fans!

    i think it shouldn’t be in 3d

  7. TRINA Says:

    Hell no its not meant to be in 3d!!And it shouldnt be broke down to two movies either!They act like there has never been three hour movies before!They could make it three hours or longer (I wouldnt mind) and show it as one movie.I dont like the two movie deal.
