Five 3D Remakes that Would Break Your Brain

As everyone already knows, 3D movies are the wave of the future, and the great thing about 3D movies is that it’s almost like your inside them. But then again, there are certain movies you probably don’t want to be inside of.

Here are Five 3D Remakes that I’d want no part of:

5. The Bourne Supremacy: You think Paul Greengrass’ violent shaky-cam technique is nauseating now? Imagine it in 3D? And now imagine the person sitting next to you in the theater retching all over your 3D glasses.

4. What Dreams May Come: Ever known what it felt like to be thrown-up on by a rainbow? That’d be the experience of watching this movie in 3D.

3. The Passion of Christ: You know what’s more unsettling that watching a ten minute scene where Jesus Christ is flogged unmercilessly? Watching it in 3D. Blood would rain out of Jesus’ gashes and spray inches from our faces, and knowing certain audiences, they’d line up to get drenched on.

2. Antichrist: Visions of a fox tearing out its own entrails in 3D? A furiously sadistic hand-job that elicits spunk blood in 3D? A self-inflicted cliterectomy in 3D? You know what the last thing I want floating in front of my face? A man’s bloody ejaculate.


1. Pink Floyd’s: The Wall: In the right setting, and with the right substances, The Wall can be a fun little trippy movie (it is otherwise kind of dull). In 3D? While ball trippin’? Imagine Edvard Munch’s “Scream,” and then imagine it swallowing your head. The Wall in 3D might short-circuit your brain. You know when you’re riding that perfect acid trip — everything’s a lovely shade of happy, and you’re perfectly content to feel the colors with your fingers — but you decide that you don’t want it to end. So you double down the hits and you wake up in a nightmare that won’t go away. Welcome to The Wall — 3D.

This one time, there was this party? And there may or may not have been some LSD? And the neighbors may or may not have started shooting at us? Or that may have been firecrackers. And pseudo-Mr. von Murderpuppet may or may not have stolen my protective circle of glowsticks? Which may or may not have made me cry. After the music may or may not have swirled around the room on rainbow-colored music diagram thingies.

I feel like that's how Requiem for a Dream would make me feel in 3d.

What *would* be 3d movie torture is if someone made a movie that consisted of giant robots fighting with each other for some ill-defined reason, and it was loud and badly edited, and you could barely tell what the hell has happening, much less who you should root for, and...wait a minute...

I so want to party with AvMP!

Posted by: meaux at March 2, 2010 5:09 PM

I wouldn't want to see Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in 3D. It would be too trippy for it's own good.

Posted by: Dave at March 2, 2010 5:12 PM

Crap. I have to go write a paper, but I may or may not put it off until 3 in the morning so I can watch all of these movies with my face really close to the screen to see what happens. Maybe if I go catatonic I won't have to write the paper at all...

Or maybe Anna von can take me out and then I'll just forget all about the paper...

Posted by: esme at March 2, 2010 5:22 PM

Dave, I am with you, sir. That scene in the casino bar...in 3D? Thousands of people across the nation would go mad.

Posted by: superasente at March 2, 2010 5:23 PM

I watched The Wall while on mushrooms back in the '80s and ended up curled in a ball in the corner, weeping in utter despair. Never tripped again after that. So yeah, I'll take a pass on that nightmare.

Posted by: sansho1 at March 2, 2010 6:08 PM

Before anyone else does, I'd like seize the opportunity and mention the centipede...
Yeah, sorry about that.

Twilight Zone: The Movie. Acid kicks in during the "Terror at 20,000 Feet" segment. Kind friend who was there to act as our babysitter decides this is the moment to reach behind our heads (we were two girls sitting on either side of him) and open his hand in front of our faces.

...And that's pretty much the last thing I remember about the movie. But I sure do remember that one thing.

surprised no one mentioned Willy Wonka yet ...

I so want to see a 3D Gene Wilder singing "Pure Imagination" ...

Posted by: lelnguye at March 2, 2010 7:18 PM

hah! I would pay to see the 3D version of the human centipede film ...

but then again, I'm not right in the head ...

Posted by: lelnguye at March 2, 2010 7:20 PM

but then again, I'm not right in the head ...

Clearly.

Welcome home, son*! We've missed you!

(*or "daughter". It's so hard to tell...)

Any of the Movie Movies - Epic Movie, Teen Movie, etc. The power of the movie to bash your IQ with a nail-studded club would be exponentially greater.

Posted by: stardust at March 2, 2010 7:50 PM

Altered States in 3D.

I'll let that sink in for a while.

Unmercilessly?

Posted by: Puffs253 at March 2, 2010 9:34 PM

Naked Lunch
Society
Tremors
Repo: The Genetic Opera
Alive

Posted by: Shane at March 2, 2010 10:22 PM

Unmercifully? Really?

Posted by: me at March 2, 2010 11:04 PM

Wow. Late to the party and I typed the wrong thing. Unmercifully actually IS a word. Sorry Puffs.

Posted by: me at March 2, 2010 11:07 PM

I would like to second Requiem for a Dream 3D. Christ on a cracker that would blow my mind right out my ears.

Posted by: misterorange at March 2, 2010 11:34 PM

Mrs. , used to think unthaw meant the opposite of what it means, until I set her straight. I also heard about a writer who thought famous and infamous were like flammable and inflammable and meant the same thing. Oooops, libel suit ...

Sorry, got sidetracked there.

"2001: A Space Odyssey" in 3-D would be even trippier and have the benefit of not making a lick more sense. Just like "Avatar."

Posted by: , at March 2, 2010 11:37 PM

Hey, Tremors in 3D would be awesome.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, on the other hand...

Posted by: FabMax at March 3, 2010 6:59 AM

I love sailboat....

Altered States
OR
American Werewolf in London

Saving Private Ryan. Theaters full of people stumbling out with post traumatic stress syndrome.

And Tron.

What about that French independent film (can't remember the name) with a nine minute graphic rape scene? NINE.....MINUTES!!!!!!!!!! Rape in itself is horrible, but 3D?! Every man in the place would be sobbing along with the women.

Posted by: scorzi at March 3, 2010 1:50 PM

Scorzi, that's "Irréversible".
And honestly, I'd rather see three of the five in that list in 3D than Monica Belluci getting raped again like that in any number of dimensions.
