Do you mind if I side-track a little and ask people's opinion of 3D in general?
I've seen two movies in 3D in the past year - Avatar and Toy Story 3. While Avatar was fun, and Toy Story 3 exception, I didn't feel that the 3D really added much to the experience. In particular, the colour for Toy Story 3 seemed dimmer than normal. I also where glasses, so I sometimes had reflections obscuring the picture.
I understand that 3D is being hyped as the next big thing to get after a big flatscreen TV, so I'd be interested to hear what people here think of it.
- cheald 16y agoI don't generally like it. It's technically neat, and it's fun to see in effect for the "wow" factor, but I don't like it over traditional 2D. I wonder how much of that is me just having watched normal TV for twenty-some-odd years and how much of it is due the fact that the art of film making has been developed entirely in the context of 2D storytelling.
- mooism2 16y agoI've seen 3 movies in 3D. With Avatar and How To Train Your Dragon, I felt the 3D added something worthwhile to the experience. With Alice In Wonderland, it didn't. I don't think I'd want a 3D TV though, not while you need special glasses to see the picture properly. It's one thing wearing them when you've made the effort to go to the cinema, quite another when you're just casually watching at home; they become something else to lose, like the remote only not as useful.
