For a remaking of a 49 - twelvemonth - erstwhile movie based upon a 144 - yr - sure-enough book , the movie industry is looking at upcoming Brendan Fraser flick Journey To The Center Of The Earth as a sign of thing to add up . Why , you may wonder ? Well , it ’s got something to do with another retro engineering science as well as Disney ’s tween popstar Hannah Montana .
The film , released on July 11th , is being seen by many as a mental test for just how well unrecorded - natural action 3 - D movies will do with the summer blockbuster audience :
unrecorded - action 3 - D film are view risky to part with , and produce them carry extra monetary value . Although they can still be unspooled on 2D screens , 3 - D is more problematic for [ videodisk and video ] … “ It ’s sort of a tricky proposition right now to make live action 3 - five hundred movies because you have to verify it works on both format , ” acknowledges New Line stovepipe Toby Emmerich . “ We think it does . ”
The flick will play on 800 3 - D screens nationally ( many of them have by co - producer Walden Media ’s hirer , Philip Anschutz ) , and the hoi polloi behind the movie are hopeful that it can at least equal the record of the last major 3 - D resilient action succeeder : Disney’sHannah Montana & Miley Cyrus : Best of Both Worlds Concert(You may bemock , but it made $ 65.3 million in limited press release last year in the US alone . That ’s about $ 20 million more than Speed Racer ) . If it break at the box office , expect minor scare from all of the other 3 - five hundred movies currently in output ( including James Cameron ’s Avatar , Tim Burton ’s live - action remake of Alice In Wonderland and the fourth instalment of the Final Destination franchise ) .
