3D and RealD animated movies are the trend of the present and near future in film, as far as profitability is concerned. While the target market for live action films is generally adults, the target market for children (age 6-14) is $50 billion, which is the largest children’s market and is the primary focus for Disney. Although animated films are geared toward children, they include romance and humor that adults can appreciate.
