My Favorite Movie About Campus Life

In the era of 3D effect, many movies are ruined by the exaggerated plot and abused 3D effect. Actually, in the post-Avatar period, many directors are just too crazy about 3D effect. The balance between the plot and the effect is broken. As a consequence, many movies like Transformer are made.

Thomas Edison and Eadweard Muybridge both contributed to the technological innovations in film industry and they both resisted the coming of voiced film. To them, the application of the advanced technology would distract people's attention towards actor's performance. To this extent, 3D effect did that.

When Inception was bestowed with Best Motion Picture, Nolan was praised as the only person who directed with his mind in the era of technology-abused movies. Actually, few movies can shock me with plot. Even Avatar failed to manage that.

I love a movie best which is related to campus life. I like it not only because it is encouraging but also because it represents some dreams that I once desired to get. Now I will take you to have a view at my favourite movie about campus life: Dead Poets Society.

Before I watched it, I never realized Robin Williams can impress me so deeply with non-comedy movie; after I watched it, I realized a moving story with a scaring name can be so wonderful. This is not a horror movie and the ending of the movie will leave a deep impression in your heart.

In an old-fashioned and riot stale campus lived a bunch of dull students who would do nothing but studying. They would be as dull as their parents if they hadn't met that teacher, who devotes to free student's mind.

I never thought that Whitman and his "Oh captain, my captain" could be caved in my mind before I watched this movie. I love the music in the movie especially the one that Charlie plays in the cave. I love the beautiful scene in the movie: the lake and the swan.

I am excited when Charlie, Todd and his friends sneaks out the school and running into the deep darkness along with the wonderful background music. Suddenly, I just want to join in them because they have done what I failed to do in high school days.

Of course, everyone who has seen the film will be moved by the last scene: students standing on the desks to support their teacher regardless of the menacing words of the headmaster. At that time, they all look like angels who are ready to fly to the sky with their wings in the thunderstorm.

I love this movie so much that I have seen it for over 10 times even more than that of Titanic. In order to let me have a good enjoy with it, I have converted the DVD of Dead Poets Society to mp4 files with DVD Ripper so that I can play it with my tablet. If you are a fan of this movie or if you want to share with me your favorite, you can share with me in the message board below.

How To Watch 3D Titanic Beforehand

From Titanic to Avatar, James Cameron created one legend after another. In 1998, Titanic won over 1.8 billion dollars at box office. However, Avatar robbed its crown in 2010 with over 2.7 billion dollars at check box office. Then you will find that the most two profitable movies in history are all directed by James Cameron.

However, Cameron refused to stop, so he decided to challenge again, with his 3D version of Titanic. Will Titanic get back its throne? This is a really bold attempt because the old version of Titanic seemed to be perfect in our mind while Avatar was regarded as incomparable in 3D film industry. What surprise will Kate's Rose and Leonard's Jack bring us this time? I don't know. But I do know that even a little mistake in the film will be highlighted and then the film will receive a flood of curses. I even doubt whether the theme song of the film can turn to be a classic as My Heart Will Go On.

Anyway, the more doubts a film bears, the more attentions it gets. At least for me, I am quite curious of the movie. The film is said to be released in April in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Titanic's sunk. So thanks to Cameron, we can review this classic again and maybe we can be moved again. This film is destined to be a profitable one since every Titanic lover will buy a ticket for it. However, if the main characters and the plot of the 3D version are exactly the same as the original one, how can it attract us? The secret lies in its 3D effect.

Since the success of Avatar, 3D film has become a trend. Maybe Cameron felt pity that the old version could not reach his expectation in special effects and he believed with 3D effect his Titanic can be better. Whatever, people are more tended to be moved by tragedy. With 3D effect, you will enter the virtual film world and become a witness to the love between Jack and Rose as well as to the disastrous tragedy. I don't know how many people once held the thought of being a member on the ship after watching the old version, but I did. That's why I am looking forward to the 3D version because it may fulfill my dream with its 3D effect.

But I need to wait for a while before I can watch the 3D version. I always want to find some ways to watch 3D Titanic beforehand. I got an idea recently, since the new version is about the same as the old version, I just need to attach 3D effect to the old version. While I used DVD Ripper to convert the DVD of Titanic to mp4 file so that I can play it on the iPad, I surprisingly found that it could add 3D effect to 2D video. Then I just need to buy 3D glasses. Even though the 3D effect you experience can't compare with that of 3D Titanic, at least you can have a general expectation towards 3D Titanic.

I know this method seems to be not so good, but at least you can have a try.
