Dreamworks’ new “Monsters vs. Aliens” is the first of a series of high-profile Hollywood movies in full-fledged 3-D. Moguls like Jeffrey Katzenberg predict that improved 3-D technology will revolutionize the medium and improve the movie business. But Hollywood moguls said exactly the same thing in 1953.
