Cameron: 3D will become standard

AVATAR director James Cameron predicted that 3D would replace 2D as the standard, mainstream format for film, television and online content in less than 25 years.

Viewers will soon not only enjoy films in 3D cinemas but all forms of entertainment, including sports and music shows on TVs and laptops, Cameron said at a technology forum in Seoul, South Korea.

Cameron directed the 3D epic Avatar, which won three Oscars and is the highest grossing film in history, with €2 billion in worldwide ticket sales so far.
