Turns Out Martin Scorsese Is Not Making Everything in 3D

Though Martin Scorsese previously bemoaned the fact he couldn't retroactively ruin Raging Bull and Taxi Driver with three dimensions, saying, "I would have practically done all my films in 3D," the director is apparently not using the format to make The Wolf of Wall Street lunge out at you with its obvious relevance.

Speaking to Empire, Marty's longtime editor Thelma Schoonmaker said that while Scorsese has abandoned film for digital--not entirely surprising considering Scorsese would rather be shooting with holo-crystals anyway--his upcoming, Leonardo DiCaprio-starring film about a hard-partying wall street criminal will just be a plain ol' 2D adventure in stockbroking. Looks like we're going to have to rely solely on The Great Gatsby to place us uncomfortably close to a booze-breathed DiCaprio and ticker tape.
