Remarks: Misadventures in 3D: More 3D Mania opens with the breaking news that Professor Turcinovic, the director of the famed Institute of 3-D Technology and the inventor of Real-O-Vision (a revolutionary new type of 3-D cinema), and his mechanical assistant,Max, are trapped somewhere in the second-and-a-half dimension. That alone would be a big enough problem, but the Institute's board is threatening to shut down the Institute. Thinking quickly, the Professor decides that broadcasting from the second-and-a-half dimension is the perfect way to help the board understand the 3-D revolution—and thus the importance of the Institute, not to mention the Professor himself.

With the help of a larger-than-life hologram of a pair of human eyes, the Professor explains the workings of the oldest "optical mechanism." He then describes how the brain processes visual cues to "see" the world in three dimensions. The Professor notes that 3-D cinema is the only medium capable of capturing reality using all the same visual cues the human brain uses.

Unfortunately, up to this point, if an image on the screen had touched the edge of the frame—the "window"—it destroyed the 3-D effect. But the Professor has news! He announces that a revolution has finally taken place. By projecting their films on a large-format screen, 3-D filmmakers can now get rid of the "window."

The giant size of the screen changes the rules of cinema by allowing viewers to feel physically present in the scene, giving them the thrill of "being there."

Having unveiled the future of 3-D, the Professor makes his final appeal to the board. They unanimously vote to keep the Institute running and reactivate the Real-O-Vision machine. Unpredictably, the machine explodes back to life, hurling fireballs and tongues of flame, and zaps the entire board into the fourth dimension, leaving the Professor and Max with a new problem to solve.
