James Cameron, a proponent of shooting with 3D cameras and a harsh critic with Hollywood in their practive of  transfering 2D to 3D, discussed how technology has changed and the improvements Cameron made with 3D cameras.

Michael Bay, who shot his first film with 3D cameras on the third installment of the Transformers, said he was reluctant to add the extra burden of filmming with the cumbersome equipment until his most recent Transformers movie. Shooting in 3D  added extra days to the shooting schedule and increased the budget by $30 million for Tranformers: Dark of the Moon.

This week, it was announced Titanic will return to movie theaters April 2012 in 3D.  Tranformers: Dark of the Moon will be released two days sooner on June 29 instead of July 1st.
