''Encounter in the Third Dimension'' (sometimes referred to as ''Encounter in the Dimension'' due to the title screen's spelling error) is a 3-D film directed by Ben Stassen and Sean McLeod Phillips. It was released in the US on March 31, 1999.〔http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0159423/〕 It has been shown in 3-D theaters and released on DVD with 3-D glasses, in both 2-D and 3-D format. ==Plot== In his lab, the Professor (Stuart Pankin) does an intro for the Institute of 3-D Technology, but the intro dies, so the Professor uses the Letter Cannon for the title of the movie. However, it spells the word "third" "thrid", so the Professor activates the spell correction, resulting in the lab's screen being destroyed and several fires being started, which are put out by the Professor's robot assistant, M.A.X. (Stuart Pankin). The Professor has a new system called Real O Vision for 3-D technology, and to demonstrate has Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (Cassandra Peterson) perform a haunted house song, but the machine still has some bugs in it and traps Elvira between the second and third dimensions. While the Professor tries to fix the problem, he has M.A.X. entertain the audience. When M.A.X. starts telling jokes, the Professor tells him to explain the difference between 2-D and 3-D, which he does, explaining that 3-D has depth to it unlike 2-D. After pictures from the stereographic archives are shown, the Professor tries his demonstration again, but this time the machines turn Elvira into cardboard. As he tries to fix this problem, he tells the audience about 3-D movies, and several clips are shown, particularly clips where objects or people are thrown at the camera. Afterward the Professor opens up the Diorama of 3-D videos, such as Dino Island, ''T-2 3-D'', and the Abandoned Mine. M.A.X. grabs a stick of dynamite, and puts it in his head when the Professor tells him to throw it away, and it explodes, briefly popping his eyes out. When he tells the Professor it was only a simulation, the Professor retaliates by making him enter the simulator, which does a simulation of traveling to the center of the earth. M.A.X. explains how 3-D movies are made, and enters the television, but soon becomes trapped inside it by the Professor, who is tired of being annoyed by M.A.X., and mutes the TV. Then he begins the demonstration with Elvira and the haunted house, which works perfectly. After it is over, however, Elvira turns the Professor into cardboard and shuts off the TV with M.A.X. still inside it. She tells Ruth in the Booth (Andrea Thompson) that she'll let him out in an hour, but when the machine seems to malfunction she says "Or not." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Encounter in the Third Dimension」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
