Living Large With Big-Screen Home Theater (NAPSA)—There’s a new dimension to entertainment, bringing on what many havecalled a second golden ageof 3D. The numberof movies filmed in 3D is growing, as well as the number of movies that are being converted from 2D to 3D to boost their box office appeal. Since the smash hit “Avatar,” many more films have been shot in 3D, including “Alice in Wonderland,” “Sanctum,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Mars Needs Moms” and “The Green Hornet.” Films such as “Green Lantern” and “The Smurfs” were filmed in 2D and converted, while “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” and “Puss in Boots” were shot in 2D but also shown in Imax 3D. This year, many more are com- ing to theaters while old movies are now available in 3D Blu-ray discs for home enjoyment. And with the increasing popularity of this medium, more people want to enjoy the bold images of 3D on a large screen at home. To meet that demand, there’s growing interest and innovation in 3D projectors. For example, Mit- subishi Electric’s new 3D projector, the HC7800D, brings the 3D experience home.
