Director James Cameron will be collaborating with Panasonic to promote and develop the electronic company’s new 3D televisions. The future that we all imagined in the 90s is coming to fruition it may seem! 

The Titanic and Terminator director’s new film, The Avatar is causing a huge stir in the movie industry as it’ll be the first of its kind as it was shot entirely in 3D. Cameron has allowed footage from the film to be included in the promotional push for Panasonic’s 3D TV.

Cameron has said; “I believe 3D is how we will experience movies, gaming and computing in the near future. 3D is not something you watch. It’s a reality you feel you could step into.”

The execs at Panasonic are banking on the success of Cameron’s Avatar to generate buzz for a 3D home theatre. Even if the movie is a flop people will still be flocking to see it because they’ll want to experience this new technology of the future. Although GM of Panasonic, Masayuki Kozuka says of the collaboration; “we want to get global interest rolling. For people to want to watch 3D at home, the movie has to be a blockbuster.”

Panasonic is aiming for the flat screen, three-dimensional sets to hit store shelves in 2010, but the video giants have yet to decide on a price range for the 3D TVs. We can imagine they’re going to cost quite a lot! But can you imagine the possibilities – you could have Brad Pitt or George Clooney in your lounge with you! Mmm…
