3-D movies are the new hot potatoes in the world of cinema, AVATAR made $1.5 billion in theaters worldwide, Alice in Wonderland, another 3-D movie, made $300 Million in three straight weekends topping the box office...

All of a sudden everyone wants to see the 3-D version...

Guess what...

Chi... Ching!!!

Now, the theater owners want more money...

So...

If you want to watch a 3-D movie from now on get ready to pay up to $7.00 more than the 2-D version of the same movie.

If I may quote Bill Whitaker from The Early Show...

That's 68 Bucks... For a family of four... before the popcorn....

I really liked a comment posted on cbsnews.com about this suggesting that you should "take that money and use it to fund health care for all and relief to Haiti."

Are you ready to dish out $20.00 for a movie ticket?

Take me with you... I'll be your date!
