As the opening shots of Titanic 3D fail to soar out at me, I lean over and whisper, “Did you know James Cameron had to build a deep sea camera just for this movie? It could only record up to an hour of footage though.”

I couldn’t help but be excited as my favorite movie was re-appearing in theaters again. I even convinced myself to expect the undeniable outcome of a ship wreak to be spectacular in 3D!

However, I was disappointed yet again by the 3D vision. I refuse to see movies involving real people on screen in 3D due to the fact that the viewer’s mind automatically sees it that way. But just this once I decided to risk it and faced disappointment.

The tragic love story between poverty and wealth was just as fantastic as the other hundred times I’ve watched Titanic. What I expected was water to be thrown from the screen at me resulting in my scramble for life just like the passengers on Titanic.

I wanted the scene where the captain becomes overcome by the roaring ocean to scream out at me. But it didn’t. This movie was filmed great, absolutely wonderful. James Cameron is an outstanding director who led the film with great shots and scenes, but it wasn’t filmed for a 3D release and therefore should not be re-edited into a 3D format.

I really wanted to love this movie in 3D. But it was a waste of time when I could sit down in my house and watch it without ridiculous glasses on.
