The Best 3D Movies To Watch Right Now 

If you are searching for 3D movies to enjoy your 3D projector with, then you should consider the following: 

Gravity 

Gravity tells the story of Dr. Ryan Stone and Matt Kowalski, who are hit by high-speed space debris while on an outer space mission. The movie perfectly captures the vastness of space and gives the audience a realistic feel, further heightening the tension. 

Avatar 

Ranks as the highest-grossing movie of all time, Avatar stars Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana. It revolves around the moon Pandora and the Na'vi tribe, featuring amazing action scenes delivered with 3D graphics. 

How to Train Your Dragon

Released in 2010, the animated action film tells the story of Hiccup, a Viking who ends up befriending a dangerous dragon, Night Fury, instead of killing it. It features exhilarating flying sequences bound to immerse you while viewing entirely. 

Up 

The 3D effect in Up is quite pronounced in its action and comedic scenes while revolving around an exciting, funny, and poignant adventure. It stars Edward Asner and Bob Peterson as Carl Fredricksen and Dug. 

Alice in Wonderland

Featuring Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, and Matt Lucas, the movie follows the adventure of nineteen-year-old Alice, who returns to Underland through a rabbit hole and defeats the Red Queen. 

Toy Story 3 

Tim Allen and Tom Hanks play the voices of Buzz Light-year and Woody in this animated comedy-drama. In the movie, Andy's toys mistakenly get taken to daycare, and Woody leads them on an expedition home while convincing them that Andy did not dump them. 

Life of Pi

In Life of Pi, Pi Patel struggles to survive on a lifeboat adrift in the middle of nowhere with a male Bengal Tiger and hyena for company. The movie comes alive better with its 3D effects, which make every activity and action quite natural. 

Hugo 

Starring Ben Kingsley and Asa Butterfield, Hugo covers the life of a young orphan boy who gets wrapped up in a mystery involving an automaton and his late father. Its 3D effect, which comes with a heightened sense of depth, offers easy immersion keeping you glued throughout screen time.

Imagine sitting on the couch, wearing 3D glasses, surrounded by your loved ones while watching action scenes from Avatar or the emotional moments of How to Train Your Dragon in 3D. The thrill and excitement in such a moment are second to none and will leave you happy.

How Smart Projectors Enhance The 3D Movie Experience

You can enjoy your favorite 3D movies in a truly immersive viewing atmosphere with either a home or outdoor projector due to their outstanding features. Some of these features include: 

MEMC Technology

With motion compensation technology (MEMC) fitted in some smart projectors, 3D movies are enjoyed as it ensures that fast-paced action movie scenes are displayed smoothly and clearly. So you can watch action 3D movies like Avatar and Dredd without any image trailing, allowing you to follow every scene regardless of speed.

High-Quality Sound

A 3D movie-watching experience is usually great with good sound, and some smart projectors come with built-in speakers that produce high-fidelity sound to complement the stylish visuals of movies like Up and Alice in Wonderland

Large Screen

Smart projectors heighten the movie experience with 3D movies with their large screen between 60"-200", which supports viewing from a comfortable distance while keeping you immersed with every action and scene. 

Resolution/Brightness 

Smart projectors come with 1080p/4K resolution, which offers crystal clear visual imagery allowing you to make out the details of every scene of your favorite 3D movie. They also come with about 900-2400 ANSI lumens, which provide bright displays for camping or backyard use both in the day and at night. 

Built-in Entertainment

Finally, some smart projectors support Android TV, which gives them access to numerous apps via Google Play like Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and HBO Max for unlimited indoor and outdoor entertainment. They also have multiple connectivity options like HDMI, USB, LAN, and Audio to connect laptops, gaming consoles, TV sticks, hard drives, laptops, and headphones.
