Once again, here's news about a film being in 3D that you probably already expected to be anyway. This time it's Logan's Run, the remake of the 70s sci-fi classic that recently looked at Carl Rinsch as a potential director. Producer Joel Silver sat down recently with MTV to talk about his new project Splice, and revealed that, yes, he'll be treating Logan's Run like pretty much every other blockbuster these days.
"I'd like to make 'Logan's Run' [in 3-D]. It's a movie I've always been intrigued with, excited by. We're writing a script now and that should be a big 3-D movie and it should be devised and shot in 3-D. I think if we can pull it together, then it would be."
Really the only thing interesting about this quote is the way Silver treats "3D" and "big movie" as being basically synonymous, jumping on board the recent bandwagon that says a movie can only be considered a tentpole if you have to slap glasses on your face to see it. Obviously there are a million things frustrating about that philosophy, but until it stops making billions for studios, we can't expect it to stop.
