This year, another blockbuster movie named The Avengers had further enhanced the charm of 3D movie with amazing box office performance. However, according to CNET news, though many 2012 3D movies have been released so far, none had taken full advantages of 3D effects.

For many people, 3D movie not only means terrific 3D effects but also higher ticket price and extra burdens for the eyes. In other word, sometimes watching 3D movie is not as comfortable as it is supposed to be. According to some experts, decent 3D effects require 4 percent occupancy of the screen's width while cinema only provides 0.5 percent. To this extent, the 2012 3D movies we have watched in the cinema are all semi-finished goods.

However, good news is that two 3D movies may provide us decent 3D effects via innovations in 3D technologies. Moreover, they are both anticipated 2012 3D movies. Here this post will introduce you the two anticipated 2012 3D movies that may bring technological innovations to 3D field.  

1. The Great Gatsby

As a famous novel written by Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby ranks second in the list of greatest novels of all time. As an anticipated 2012 3D movie, The Great Gatsby is starred by DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire and will be available in December. As the fifth movie made basing on the novel, The Great Gatsby is promising to gain unprecedented success with new 3D technology.

The Great Gatsby mainly focuses on how a poor man named Nick is drawn into Gatsby's circle, becoming a witness to obsession and tragedy. In the movie, Gatsby is a rich man with lavish life and mysterious past. Later, Nick finds Gatsby's crush on Daisy and decides to help him. However, the tragedy starts from that point.

2. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

As the latest member of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey attracts great attention for the tremendous successes of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Hobbit will focus on the story of how Frodo's uncle goes through a journey with thirteen dwarf warriors and gets the ring from Gollum. Of course, just as the title shows, they will meet a lot of unexpected difficulties.

As an adventure and fancy movie, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is an ideal candidate for 3D movies. For one thing, 3D effects can vividly present audience the thrilling adventures of those Hobbits.
