Journey to the Center of the Earth is poised to be the largest 3-D film release in history, according to The Hollywood Reporter. But Warner Bros. distribution fears the expansion of 3-D is moving at a snail’s pace. Since Beowulf, which aired on 660 3-D screens, only 204 more screens have been installed. Considering that 3-D is the future of movie-going, this fact does not sit well with head honchos at Warner Bros. Journey will still play on approximately 950 screens, including Regal Azalea Square Stadium 16 in Summerville, but that number is drastically lower what was originally expected. One thing’s certain. As rapid as the movie industry is moving, the exhibitioners of 3-D better get the ball rollin’. —Caitlin Baker
