I am not a huge fan of 3-D for one simple reason: the lack of good content. Sure I love movies with good scripts like Toy Story 3, but in those cases, the 3-D effects are an addition to the good storytelling. All that it is going to take to end this round of 3-D is for several movies to be made the fail badly at the box office. The Independent argues that Mars needs Moms is just that sort of movie. I would have argued that Clash of the Titans was just that sort of movie, but apparently it made $163 Million in the U.S. with a budget of $125 Million.

This isn’t a 3D flop, it’s a Zemeckis flop. There’s no business model to support expensive lousy movies.
