3D will not work until I don't have to wear glasses. I'm sorry, but sometimes I'd just rather watch films in 2D. And they are ALREADY finding another way to grab money from us after just releasing Blu-Ray? I thought 2D Blu-Ray had at least another decade on it. This is also another way to separate big blockbusters from lower budget films and make sure no one ever sees them...

 

Well said. The truth is 3D will likely become a trend all studios feel must be copied in their 2010 and 2011 releases.  If it fits, i.e. Avatar, pixar movies, tim burton movies etc then great.

But if serious dramas films (oscar contenders) start doing this because it's the new cool thing I'll feel seriously ill.  Cameron said Avatar would get people back into the cinema, and it did because word of mouth suggested "you gotta see this 3d, it's amazing" and it was, but because the environment looked great and made the experience more enjoyable. Vibrant colors details etc, so you felt immersed.  Did it help the story? No way.  Is it actually a good story? Kinda, but not great.  There are plot holes that many critics have raised, and for good reason as they do exist, but the movie is about experience and enjoyment, and so they don't pan it.  Which is fine and rightly so.

I just hope everything doesn't get the 3d treatment, coz this will get real boring.
