    James Cameron has retrofitted his blockbuster film Titanic into a 3D version. It opened last night and is already doing well at the box office. Kim and John reflect on the days when the original movie was in production and word of its scale and expense had many in Hollywood skeptical. Now, as the 3D version is poised for international release they say that Cameron and Paramount Studios stands to make a lot of money off of the 3D Titanic, namely in countries like Russia and China that are flush with new 3D movie theaters and full of people who may never have seen the original.
