Top Gun 3D for 2012

No, no. They’re not remaking Tony Scott’s mega-hit from 1986 in Top Gun (and shhhh, don’t give them any hints to do one either!), but THR is saying that the classic film is being converted to 3D like James Cameron’s Titanic for 2012.

Footage was shown at International Broadcasting Convention last week.

“As I understand it, they are planning to release it in 3D in early 2012, though I [know] they want to get Tony Scott’s approval before they go forward,” Legend3D CEO Rob Hummel said. “I think Top Gun lends itself to 3D due to the aerial flight.” He added that Legend3D has a revenue sharing deal with Paramount and is funding the conversions themselves.

Thoughts?
